I belong to a local group of demonstrators known as the Lone Star Stampers. Yesterday we held our second Sale-a-bration Extravaganza. Over forty people attended and had a great time. Here are some photos from yesterday.
Brenda on the right demonstrating My Digital Studio and Kathleen sewing on the left.
Yes, I did say Kathleen was sewing. See the way cute black and white purse? That was made using the Stampin' Up! Scallop Square Sizzix Die (#115950). You can also see the Fabric Flower Pin I made for everyone, to show off, on her shirt. Yes the tutorial for these flowers is coming!
I just fell in love with these little name tags Kathleen created. Not until I was looking at the picture today did I realize the base of the name tag was made with the Two Tags Sizzix Die. How clever!
This year for Sale-a-bration Extravaganza we decided to have a $10 mini class. Each participant made the matchbox and coordinating card pictured below and got to take home half a package of the Sweet Pea Stitched Felt Flowers. What a deal!
Matchbox and coordinating card perfect for an Easter or Mother's Day gift. (Just add jewelry!)
I apologize for the coloring in the photo but I really wanted to share this with you because I thought it was so cute. (Plastic tables do not make a good backdrop.) This was made by Carol, the coordinator of Lone Star Stampers. All I need to say about Carol is that she's awesome! She and her husband have nine children, she home schools and still has time to wrangle all of us crazy stampers. This little bag of jelly beans has rub-ons from the Eggscellent Eggs Kit on it. Never thought to put rub-ons on the clear bags. The topper is made from the Sizzix Top Note Die and embellished with ribbon, a flower from the kit and an epoxy brad. I didn't realize until I saw the kit yesterday that it included bling! Hmm, maybe it will be in the new catalog in July? Keep your fingers crossed.
Each customer that RSVP'd by the deadline received this little gift. The container was made using one of the Sweet Treat Cups and was filled with an assortment of Corduroy Buttons.
Even better there was a slider so you could remove the buttons and keep the container.
So if you didn't make it yesterday I hope you enjoyed your virtual tour and be sure to check my calendar often so you don't miss anymore awesome events.Click here to see the calendar and register early.
All the blessings we enjoy are the fruits of labor, toil, and self-denial, and study.

A number of economists, in search of big problems to solve, and politicians, looking for bold promises to make, think that it ought to be doing something else: making people happy.
