Hunt Country Festival

I was a vendor at the festival over the weekend. My sister Annette helped me. It was so relaxing and I enjoyed spending the time her. The weather was cloudy and a little chilly but the turn out was good...even though the sales were low. It was a learning experience and we had fun making plans for future craft shows. Here is some pics of our booth.

All of the wooden stuff was made by my Dad, Annette made all the sewn things and my kids and I made the rest.

Hello, Sorry for note posting but my computer crashed just over 3 weeks ago and I just got a new one =) I have to help my Dad this weekend but I plan on posting Monday. We will be selling my Dad's wood crafts at Hunt Country Winery Saturday and Sunday. So if your in the Finger Lakes, NY, near Keuka Lake stop at the Festival and try some of the wonderful wines they make. No I'm not a wine drinker but I use them for cooking and serving to my guests, since the winery is only about a mile from my house and they have fabulous wine. Enjoy your weekend

Doing Better

Sorry I haven't posted anything for a while. One of my Doctors decided to try some sort of nerve block into my spine to try and help the consent pain in my left arm and well it made it worse. I was suppose to have a series of three injections in a 6 week time. After the 1st injection my pain and use of my arm had gotten worse. He decided to do the 2nd injection a little farther down my spine and it didn't help. Anyway I'm starting to get adjusted to the new complications and as soon as I get the household under control I will do my best to post at least 3 times a week again. Looking forward to stamping again, its been a long several weeks!

She was found! !

Our prayers have been answered.

Sorry the image is so blurry. Maybe for Christmas my family will get me a new camera:) I love using blue and white for Christmas things. I'm very traditional and using colors other than red, green, blue, white silver and gold are very hard for me but when it comes to Clubs & Classes I have to. That means until the holidays get closer I can do what I want! LOL

It's hard to believe but this challenge was a challenge to me. I have very limited DP and none of my stamp sets appealed to me for creating my own DP. Finally settled on my newest favorite stamp set and well it didn't turn out half bad. In fact the more I look at it the more I like it. Try the challenge for yourself and see what you can create.
