Hello Stampers!The card I'm sharing today is a fairly simple one, but it took me a long time to decide what I wanted to do. My sister-in-law (my hubby's sister) and her husband just moved into a new home in Wyoming.

Hello Stampers!It was a fun Saturday at the craft show at Faith Lutheran Church here in Lincoln, Nebraska. I finally took some photos of a couple of the displays. This first photo shows part of the 3 x 3 display. These cute little cards really draw people's attention to the booth. Not only are the cards fun to make, but they are a good seller. Shoppers love these as gift package inserts.I've also included a photo of the the card "spinner" and another tabletop display.That was my last craft show until the fall ones begin!
