Just Treading Water

Here are a couple of pictures of what I have managed to finish and clear off of my plate. I was in charge of the invitations, party favors and thank you cards for my Mom's 80th birthday. Of course I never took a picture of the invite but it used the SU colors of pumpkin pie and purely pomagranite. To go with that theme the party favor boxes were made using pumpkin pie but this time I used the new "in" color razzleberry (?). They were filled with three Kit Kat mini bars. The thank you cards were made from a paper stack that I got at JoAnne Fabrics (some fall paper collection) and the cardstock is SU. The ink is SU the new razzleberry (I should probably be a better demostrator and know all these colors by heart but alas I am negligent in that area).

I am working on the baby shower invites for my niece Jennifer and although I have many of the components completed I have not yet completed a full card. They will however be out in the mail by Sunday so this here chick has many crafting hours between now and then to complete. I'll post a picture when I am done.

Pretty much the rest of my life is about the same. Working, eating, sleeping. Too much working, too much eating and definitely not enough sleeping.

No Pictures

Well I did get a crafting project done but didn't take a picture. I finished a yellow crocheted baby afghan last night and started a pink one. I am in my first craft fair of the year on August 1 & 2 and want to get a stock of afghans ready. I have a card started that I hope to finish tonight.

Crazy at work, I need to finish up some GL audit work for our fiscal year end for our outside CPA. We were sent notice that we are being audited by the state for sales tax so that is on my plate too. Not a good time for the only other person in accounting to be out sick with the flu. Better that she keeps her germs at home, I hate being sick but especially in the summer.

Hope you all have a great Thursday!

A New Venture

Today I took a big step. I listed a handmade crocheted pink baby afghan on Etsy. This is my first venture trying to sell my wares on that site. I usually do craft fairs to sell my handmade stuff. I almost have a baby green crochet afghan finished and hope to get that one out in the blog-world.


So, if you looking for a baby afghan in pink, hop on over to my Etsy shop. My Etsy name is konnie. Below you will find a preview of the afghan for you viewing pleasure.

Don't forget to play in the Trashy-Tuesday give-away.
