A new venture

I have been trying to figure out someway to make some extra money. After talking to a few people and showing them a towel that I made for my husband for the football season. I have made up a second one now for the basketball season and to have a picture so that I can show people. I can change the colors for your school colors and also the symbol for the sport depending on what you desire. The ATC stands for my husband's position, and I can substitue either a position, name, or jersey number on the towel. Now to figure out what to charge. The towels cost between 2-3 dollars and then there is the cost of the thread and fabric stiffner. I am thinking of charging around 6.00 for a towel but am open to suggestions. Let me know if you have any ideas. Hoping to get a couple more made up tomorrow or this next week so that I have a few more variations for examples. Please leave me comments and let me know what you think. Thanks

Super Happy Mail

A couple of weeks ago there was an online crop pink held at the Fiskateers site. It was not only very fun but also educational. People were sharing about how cancer and breast cancer has affected either them or their families. There were also challenges related to the scrap pink theme. I was one of the ones who won. The package with my RAK came today from Fiskars. Wow, I can't believe how much stuff was packed into the box. What perfect timing for all of this goodies. Thanks to conferences I have tomorrow free. I have a few swaps that need to be finished and then I get to play. What fun goodies to play with. Thanks Cheryl and Fiskars

finally, it has been a long time

Okay so it has been a very long time since I have felt creative. Really been missing the creative outlet, but it just wasn't too happen. So I have been trying to figure out a way to get a little extra cash and thinking that I could put my crafting skills to work. I am thinking about seeing if I can make a few items that I could sell on Ebay or Etsy. I came up with this card design tonight, hoping to make a few more tomorrow along with some dish towels. Let me know what you think and how much you would be willing to pay? Thanks

Snowman ATC

Okay, so I finally decided to jump in with my feet and try my hand at an ATC. The final push was a snowman ATC swap on Fiskateers. For my first ATC cards, I am really happy with how it turned out, but I am open to suggestions from those of you who are more experienced with ATC cards.

Favorite things Crop

Spent the past two days at Scrapaganza's Our Favorite Things Crop. What a good time. This year I actually went with 3 other friends. Usually I go by myself and find myself someone else who is by themselves to sit with. It was so nice to sit with others that I know. We had so much fun, talking, laughing, and cropping. Since it was Our Favorite Things Crop we were given each of the design diva's favorite things. I ended up bring home more stuff than I took. I am never going to get my stuff used up.

Kristen's 4-H projects

For Kristen's 4-H project this year she decided to make a poncho and blanket. She loved getting started on some basic sewing. The only problem she had is that Sarah and I are both right handed and have right handed sewing shears, Kristen however is a lefty. She found it really hard to cut the fabric. Yes, I will be getting her a pair of sewing shears soon, just for her use. Now she can't wait for a football game so that she can stay nice and warm.
