Hi Friends! I just thought I would share some happy things from this past weekend.
I guess I was too busy enjoying the weekend to take many photos but hopefully you'll still get the vibe of how I spent my weekend.
Friday was a bit of a blur...I worked during the day and then in the evening I tried to throw things together for Saturday.
I had committed to being a vendor at a local church's garage sale event.
I hadn't done an event like this since before the pandemic!
Fortunately I was able to dig up some things that would work and managed to set up and be ready in time for the 8am start time on Saturday morning!
I almost never do outdoor fairs because the weather elements and paper do not really mix well together.
I'll also share a little anxiety of mine. It's so hard talking to strangers!
Especially strangers who know nothing about me or the joy of stamping!
Eeekk so scary!
I usually have to spend the first hour talking to myself and reminding myself of all the beautiful people I have met at vendor fairs who later came to classes and became friends or team members!
I tried to just breathe and enjoy the sunshine and be grateful to be outside.
Did I mention that Saturday was my birthday? I was wondering why I agreed to do a vendor fair on my birthday when I could be at home with my family or relaxing and stamping?
Once I get through the first hour or two, I usually feel a lot better!
This lovely lady Bev came and chatted with me several times. She's also a demonstrator but I love it how encouraging she was and I love it that she knew all about me because of my blog and my live videos. She knows I don't enjoy camping but that I loved vacationing in Europe.
I love being a part of the stampin community and in the end I was so glad to be out there chatting and meeting new people and people I already knew like Bev!
When I got home Kevin gave me a wonderful card that he made himself!!!
He had rummaged in my craft room and found an open kit and created this card.
I was impressed he managed to find an appropriate sentiment on my shelf of stamps and chose to use that instead of the stamp set that came with the kit. (because that kit was a thank you kit)
When I got home from the vendor experience, I took a wonderful nap and then we went for dinner. My choice: all you can eat Japanese food! Yum!
Sunday was father's day.
Believe it or not I didn't give Kevin a card.
I will however, share a card we made at this month's lunch, laugh and craft!
This is basically the same layout as a card I did in my live video.
Just change up the paper and colours and it's a whole new card!
Thanks for letting me share my lovely weekend with you!
