Craft Fair Set Up

Hello Everybody,

I have a craft fair Saturday, November 3rd, at the United Methodist Church in Waynedale. I did a mock set up, in my craft room, so I knew where everything was going to be. It will take much less time the day of the fair that way. I took pictures to share with you today.

Joyous Noel Picture

Good Afternoon Everyone!

Today I made a beautiful picture inspired by Clairedaly.typepad.com.'s card using the Joyous Noel DSP. I have made my version into a 5"x 7" picture. The Tin Tile Dynamic Impression Embossing Folder is a beautiful highlight on this picture. I also used the Star of Light Stamp Set and the Reversible Merry Merlot and Copper Ribbon. The colors are rich and just gorgeous! I just love how this turned out. Hopefully you will too!

Supplies needed:

5"x7" DSP

4"x6" Merry Merlot Card Stock run through the Big Shot in the Tin Tile Dynamic Textured Impression Embossing Folder

3 3/16"x5 3/16" Copper/Tranquil Tide Card Stock

3"x5" Joyous Noel DSP

2 3/16"x2 3/16" Copper/Tranquil Tide Card Stock

2"x2" Joyous Noel DSP

Snowflakes and Stars Copper embellishments

Merry Merlot and Copper Reversible Ribbon

Star of Light Stamp Set

Scrap of Whisper White Card Stock

Tear & Tape

Glue Dots

Pearl embellishment

Memento Ink

5"x7" Picture Frame

After assembling the picture, I placed inside the frame on top of the glass. I found the glass mashed down the beautiful ribbon and didn't do the picture any justice. I did not use a shadowbox frame.

I made a Youtube video tutorial for you.
