WATERCOOLER WEDNESDAY CHALLENGE WWC146 KATH'S "ALL ABOUT CHRISTMAS" CHALLENGE

 
 
Well, could not resist not entering this challenge!   I do love Christmas so much and also need more Christmas cards. LOL!   Anyhoo, I was truly inspired by all the beautiful cards from the Design Team and thought I would make one as well.
 
 
I made eleven of these cards for another chapter in Crown Jewels and also one for myself.   I love the Hometown greeting die cut and the endless possibilities.   There are twelve stars - one for each of the ladies in this chapter.

PROJECTS THAT I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON

    This fall I have been busy making items for Craft Fairs.   Usually its been yard work, but that all ended last Wednesday, as we had our first snow fall.   Over a foot of snow and the poor trees had not even lost their leaves!    No raking, but the yards and streets look awful as the leaves have fallen now and are scattered all over the snow.    
    I have been making a lot of items for Craft Fairs and going to them throughout the last few weeks.
    I have also had several orders for cards within the "Crown Jewels of Canada Society".  The "Silver Star Jewels" ordered "Thank You" cards for their individual club.  

Here are some pictures of a card and envelope that I created for them:

Inside View:  - They wanted the inside to be blank, but I have made some for another Chapter and used the "Thank You" sentiment from "Million to One" stamp set.

 
 
There are many Chapter's within the Crown Jewels across Canada and each one has their own Chapter name.    The one I belong to is "Glitter Gals" and yes, we wear lots of Glitter.   The Crown Jewels colors are:  Red, White and Purple.    We quite often are confused with "Red Hat Society", but we are not associated with this group.   We are Canadian!  Our group meets once a month for luncheons and also get together at Conventions, once a year,  somewhere across Canada.   Our main objective is to "Have Fun".  Each Chapter has a Queen and Vice Queen and there are no Rules, except to have Fun at our outings.

Not a lot of sales at the Craft Fairs --- a lot of people looking, but not buying.    They are fun to participate in and you get to see what is out there, and also meet a lot of super Vendor's.   

I am now getting ready for another Craft Fair on November 12, and November 19 and then on to getting ready for Christmas.  It will be on us before we know it.  

Hope to be back participating in the Challenges soon!    Have a great week everyone!   Stay warm!   Heather :)
