Handmade Greeting Card Bazaar

Hello Everyone!!! Well time finally arrived for our Handmade Greeting Card Bazaar. We got our stations set up and we waited and waited. Finally our first customer arrived. We didn't have a crowd of people, but we want the ones who attended to know how much we appreicated their support. This was a learning experience for us and we will be having more bazaars. My cards will be on display during the Collarborative Women's Conference in October. I will be blogging more about this event as time approaches. The photos here are of me and my station. Be sure to look on down at the other photos from the bazaar. I am planning on getting back to blogging cards as I continue to make them. Now that the bazaar is over, maybe things will get somewhat back to normal for a month or two anyway. Thanks for stopping by and please be sure to leave a comment or sign my guestbook. Until next time . . . . .

Handmade Greeting Card Bazaar (next)

Here is the participants in the bazaar. Even though we are small in number, we have a whole lot of fun. Of course we have one more. She (Sis. Lanette Weatherspoon) is taking the picture, but she is pictured in the last photo here. In this first photo from left to right is Evangelist Melanie Nunn, Sis. Martha Milliken, Sis. Linda Dungey (sitting) and Sis. Sherona Crim. The next photo is focusing on the fact that Sis. Milliken has made her a name tag with some of her favorite butterflies made with the Martha Stewart punch. It was so cute. We are so proud of her. She has really excelled since we first started and that's what it's all about.

Handmade Greeting Card Bazaar (more)

Everyone was busy working and getting set up. We also took the time to visit with each other and discuss the class work and homework for this month. Pictured from top to bottom is Evangelist Menlane Nunn working on pricing her cards. Next is Sister Linda Dungey and Sister Martha Milliken discussing some plans for their homework assignment before the bazaar starts. Next is Sister Lanettte Weatherspoon making sure she has everything ready and last is Evangelist Nunn, Sister Mildred Arnold and Sister Dungey. Sister Arnold was a customer who came by to support us and purchase a few cards.

Handmade Greeting Card Bazaar cont.

Well finally our first customer, Sister Valerie Newsome. She came in and brought life to the bazaar. Even though we didn't have a crowd of people, we still had fun with those who did attend. We want them to know we appreciated their support. Sister Newsome was our first door prize winner. She said the set of cards she won was so pretty she might not want to give them away. Sister Mattie Bryant won the second door prize and Minister Donna Hawkins won the third door prize. They are pictured in that order. We have began plans for our next bazaar. We hope you will be able to attend. Thanks for viewing my blog. Until next time . . . . .

It's back on!!!

Hello Everyone! It has been a while since I've blogged anything, including any new cards. It's been really, really, busy for me. I haven't made any new cards in over 2 weeks. I think I might be having withdrawals (lol).
Last time I blogged, I mentioned the card bazaar being cancelled. Well. It's Back On!!! It will be held this Saturday, July 10th at Mt. Moriah Baptist Church from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. I hope we have a good turn out. Our class has been preparing and looking forward to this for sometime now. Come by and see what we have so much fun doing.
I will be back blogging like normal when some of this rush, rush is over. So until then . . . . .

A Busy, Busy Week

Hello Everyone! I don't have any cards to post this week. We have had Vacation Bible School this week at chuch. Then today we concluded with a Summer Bash. We were blessed this week to have over 100 people every evening in attendance. (YEAH!) It's always a great time in the Lord. The Summer Bash was also a success. I can say the children and adults have had a good time. Now it's rest time. Next week I will be taking it easy. Of course, I will get back to making cards. Our card bazaar has been cancelled until further notice. We were really looking forward to having it and we will, but not until we find another location too have it. That means we will have to choose another date because the building we will probably use will not be available until August. Oh well, just another bump in the road. I'll be sure to let everyone know when, where and what date and time. Until next time . . . . .

Time is Fastly Approaching

Hello Everyone. Time is fastly approaching for our card bazaar. We scheduled a day for the card class to get together to make cards for the bazaar. Well it didn't go as planned. It ended up being just two of us. So it was just like usual times. The cards at the top were the ones I made during the week and the cards at the bottom are the ones I made yesterday while we worked together. As usual, I want to thank all the card makers for their ideas and inspiration. I hope that you like my cards and feel free to comment and/or sign my guest book. Until next time . . . . .
