The Seattle/Washington cards are very popular!  Here is one that is a Thank You card.  We can always use Thank You cards, right?

Sample of a Sports Holiday Greeting card.  I am out of Seattle Seahawks paper, so those cards will be available at the Vineyard Park Holiday Bazaar.  (You can always FB messenger me to buy as well.)

See? I'm trying really hard to get back into blogging.  Life gets in the way of blogging on a daily basis, so I thought I would at least try to do it on a weekly basis.

By now the Parrot Expo is over, and we are gearing up for my husband's surgeries.  Next week is his dental surgery (removing an impacted wisdom tooth). The back surgery will be after the November Vineyard Park Holiday Bazaar.

Earlier this month, I did some fun greeting cards for the Parrot Expo and Holiday Bazaar.  These are little trading cards that were left over from a larger project I was working on a couple of years ago.  This is a great way to use those leftovers:

This one is actually a postcard, so if the buyer really wanted, they could take it off and send it to someone.

Of course, I always try to do something in Peafowl!

Don't forget to come out to our two events -- Seattle Parrot Expo (this weekend) and Vineyard Park Holiday Bazaar (November) to get your handmade Chocolates!  We create a variety of creatures out of White, Milk, Dark, and Marbled Chocolate.

Hello everyone!  Yes, it has been over a year since I last posted.  I've been posting to Facebook as it is quicker.  Now that I am fully recovered from my back surgery of last October, I've been working the past few months getting caught up on things.  We have not done a craft show since the Seattle Parrot Expo last October due to the surgery recovery and my husband's health issues.  

This coming weekend is the Seattle Parrot Expo, so be sure to come out and see us.  Make sure you buy your Chocolates for the holidays!

Seattle Parrot Expo

On Saturday, November 17, we will be at Vineyard Park Holiday Bazaar.  Vineyard Park is a Senior Housing Apartment complex in downtown Mountlake Terrace.

These are the only two craft shows we are doing this holiday season due to my husband's back surgery.

Ok, a look at the greeting cards I've been making since I was able to sit comfortably at my craft table (and it looks like we will go in reverse order):

Christmas cards:

Hand-colored Owls

As some of you know, I am also a stamp collector.  With the new Dragon stamps coming out this past August, I created a set of Dragon covers to put the Dragon stamps on and have canceled with a special first day Dragon cancel. They look great, don't they?  I currently have a couple of sets left for sale ($10 for set of 4, $15 for complete set of 5).

A wedding card in July:

Thank you card back in May.

Recent greeting cards for Sports season:

I managed to get into my craft room back in April to try and make a few Mother's Day and other special cards. Was very uncomfortable sitting down and leaning forward at the craft table, so it took me several days just to make a few cards.  It is amazing how much one uses their back just sitting at a table doing crafts.

For my niece's high school graduation: 

It only seems like yesterday I was tossing her around making her giggle!

I have a couple of Sports Christmas Cards created and will post those in a few days.
