Community Band Festival

 

We don't have a show this weekend because I am participating in a community band festival.  I play bass clarinet in The Eastern Hillsborough Band.  Our next show is at St Timothy Church in Lutz.

The Weeping Angel Sisters

 This is the sister of the angel in the last post.  The sister angels will be coming to Cedar Key Seafood Festival with us next weekend.

The Weeping Angel Sisters

I will be featuring some angels that I like the next few days. These haven’t been to a show yet since they were made for last year’s season which was canceled. They will be making a debut October 16 and 17 at the Cedar Key Festival. I will post her "sister" in the next few days.
 

Sun and Moon

 I love all the pictures and jewelry I see that are a combinations of the sun and moon.  Of course I like all of the stained glass I see made up with them also.  I finally convinced Jim to make one.  

Same Card Different Themes

 This is an example of how two cards can look so different even though the designer paper is the same. The dragon wasn’t planned. I colored it and put it aside. A few days later I was cleaning off my work space and saw the paper. I put the dragon on top of it and decided it worked.

Expressions in Ink

 

This past week while deciding what to make for card class, I made a lot of cards using some of the Expressions in Ink suite by Stampin’ Up! Here is a sampling of some I made.

This designer paper is absolutely beautiful with lots of gold accents.

Cedar Key Seafood Festival

 I just sent in our application for the Cedar Key Seafood Festival.  Unless something comes up that interests us it will be our first show of the fall season.  Looking forward to it since it was canceled last year due to the pandemic.  

This is one of the cards that my card group made at our June card class.  It is so easy to make yet really makes a big impression.  The shells are made using paper that has a pearlized finish.

Dragon Panel

 

It looks like maybe we are going to have some craft shows to attend this year.  We don't have any scheduled yet but at least we are getting notices that places are in the planning stage.  So I guess it is time for us to get working again.  I will be posting more often as we make new things.

Kumquat Festival

 

I planned to make cups with hand sanitizer this past craft season. In fact I began making them in the later part of 2019 before it became a necessity. The 2020 season would have been a perfect time to sell them, but unfortunately we didn’t do any shows because of Covid. The Kumquat Festival was moved to this month and we are participating. I just had to change my design for the sanitizer. Here is what I made for teacher gifts. I will have them at the Kumquat Festival, March 27 in Dade City.
