Christmas Craft Fayre

What a hectic time it's been, it's taken until today to update my blog.  Things need to slow down soon, before I burn out.  Still got to write my cards, put the tree up, finish the Christmas shopping and then of course comes the wrapping!

I had the school Christmas fayre on Friday and as promised here are a couple of photos from then. 

This is my son, he helped out along with a very good friend.

And this is my rack of Christmas cards (well some of them)!

This week I have been busy personalising Christmas cards that I have sold, that has kept me pretty busy.  I also had a couple of requests for cards, an 80th birthday card and a leaving card for a very special dinner lady!

Here are the cards I made.

I'm hoping by the end of the weekend I will have written my cards and put the tree up and completed a request for a Diamond wedding anniversary card!  Wish me luck!

... And finally ... Christmas cards are finished!

Well I can finally say that on Monday I made my last Christmas card for 2011!  Next came Christmas gift tags, and I've finished them also.  Almost all preparations for the School Fair on Friday are complete!

On Tuesday and Wednesday, I topped up my supply of birthday, anniversary, new baby and wedding cards, so all in all I've been pretty productive.

I thoroughly enjoy making all these Christmas cards (200 this year), but I am glad to clear the kitchen table afterwards so that we can dine at it once more, oh and the floor will no longer be covered in glitter!

Tonight, I packed the car with all the cards, gift tags and baubles I've made for the School Fair tomorrow.  (If I remember, I'll take photos and post on blog)!  I've also packed some bits and bobs for personalising the cards if people would like that done, that keeps me busy during the fair!!

Here are some of the final collection of cards I made.

Hope you like some of my cards, I'll try to find time to update with what they were made with!

Will update blog after the School Craft Fair.
