STAMP-A-FAIRE 2018: GARDEN WHIMSY POP-UP BOX WITH LEXI DALY
Lexi - we LOVED this project!!! Our favorite SAF project :) We were all super impressed when we realized it was a card that could be folded and mailed - LOVE!
Here is our group display & my box.

STAMP-A-FAIRE 2018: PLANTING YOUR GARDEN WITH DAWN MCVEY
Group shot & my card. I love the glitter words - the pic does not do it justice!
STAMP-A-FAIRE 2018: WATER YOUR FLOWERS WITH BETSY VELDMAN
My son Alex participated in this challenge. I LOVE how his bugs turned out! We improvised and used the tree from PTI's Stamp Set "Mighty Oak" to make branches :)

We enjoyed this as an easier project after our Felt Wreaths - while I fingers recovered from hot glue gun burns :) Here you can see our group shot and my card.
STAMP-A-FAIRE 2018: CRAFTING A FELT FLOWER WREATH WITH LIZZIE JONES
This is my daughter Emily's wreath. I think hers turned out the best. I LOVE her Sunflower! It's proudly hanging on her bedroom door already.

Wow! These wreaths took a LONG time, and we got lots of hot glue gun burns, but we all loved how they turned out! Here is the group shot, and my wreath.
STAMP-A-FAIRE 2018: CREATING PLANTABLE PAPER WITH HEATHER NICHOLS
PTI, please tell us what materials we need before SAF!! We definitely did not "have these materials" on hand :( My daughter and I made a mad dash around town, going to Michaels, Target, and Home Depot before managing to fashion our own screen! The kiddos had a blast though! We made 1 paper for planting and plan to incorporate the rest into upcoming projects :)
WELCOME TO STAMP-A-FAIRE 2018!
Whew! Another year of SAF on the books, now time to go back and post all those beautiful projects. This is one of my favorites - most of us working on our pop-up boxes. We had quite a crew this year - my mom visited and completed all the challenges, my au pair Natzely completed a few, my kids Emily and Alex made a couple, and our neighbor Hannah participated as well. I'll be sharing everyone's projects on my blog! :)

My Craft Space
PTI sent a survey recently about Craft Spaces. I realize while I post on here ALL THE TIME about my cards, I have never shared my space :) This area was my 'present to me' after moving back to the US. What I viewed as my equivalent of the typical "man cave" has turned into so much more. This has become a family space for my kids to do homework and crafts with me, my dog to hang out while I catch up on work email at night, and of course where I craft :) I have California Closets to thank for the custom design (and my Engineering husband who foresaw many functional features I never would have considered!).
