Dry Erase Tiles

I also had a few orders for some custom tiles. One person needed some teacher gifts and then the other wanted some Hawkeye ones! I love the result!


Name Frames

A weekend project I worked on was a few name frames. I had a few orders I needed to get done! I think they all turned out great! The navy one still needs a few additions (I am waiting on some info from the customer). What do you think?

Wedding Invitations

I wanted to broaden the samples I had for wedding invitations, so I made up a few more last night. I was pretty pleased with the results. They are fairly simple, but I like them! Sorry about the glare in the pictures, they are in a book.

Christmas Frames

To use up some more of my Christmas paper I decided to make some "art" and LOVE the result! I made about 4-5 and sold only 1 at the show, which I was a little surprised, but thats ok, 'cause I am sure I will use them in my house!


New Item - Custom Name Frames

This is something new I tried and I made the first one for Kyle & I to have in our house, but also makes a great display for the craft shows. I took it to the Fonda show and got a few orders! They make great wedding & shower gifts for the new couple!! There are so many possibilities with these, can't wait to make a baby one!

Fonda Craft Show

We had our second show this weekend in Fonda. It went pretty well & I had better sales than the Alonga show, so overall a good day! This is a picture of our booth, at first I was worried before we set up 'cause it was so small, but I like the end result!!

More Count Down Calendars

I think one of my best sellers from the Algona Craft show were my Christmas Countdown Calendars! So I made up quite a few more for our next show in Fonda. I think they turned out pretty cute! I used the paper packs from SU, Dashing & Wintergreen.




Dry Erase Tiles

Another "different" item I made for our upcoming Fonda Craft Show were these Dry Erase Tiles. The pictures below are just a few of what I made. I think I have about 25 and then a few different options for stands. I think they turned out pretty great! What do you think?



Magnets, Magnets, & More Magnets

So for a different item for our upcoming Fonda Craft Show (Sunday November 11th) I decided to make a few different things. One was these magnets. I did a few snowflake & snowman ones and then letters, flowers, sports, school "things", and I think that was about all! I probably have way too many, but I love them and who can't always use a magnet!


Wedding Gift Journal

A co-worker of mine asked me to make a journal for her sister's wedding. I had six tabs, Bachelorette Party, 4 Shower tabs, and then a Wedding one. I think it turn out pretty cute. Her colors are red & black! I even added a pocket inside the front cover for cards!


Algona Craft Show

So its official, DKS Paperie had their first show and I must say it was a success! Check out our pictures below! By the way, we planned to all wear vests!!! I just didn't have a green one!

BIG on Christmas

I recently purchased this stamp set from Stampin' Up! and I love it! Here are a few simple cards I have done! Thanks for looking & have a great day!


I haven't filled this one in yet...but you at least get the idea!!

Emergency PMS Relief

I am not sure who this is from or where I found, so sorry I can't give proper credit, but I wanted to share this idea I saw!!! I am going to sell them at the upcoming craft show!! Everyone can always use a little "relief"!!

Thank You Cards

So I was busy, busy last night getting ready for the Saturday craft show....my very first one!! I didn't have any thank you cards yet, so that was my focus! Here is what I came up with! The white one was inspired by "Stamp A Little Love's" Blog, she is great! Thanks for looking!



Non Card Post!

My co-workers and I made a diaper cake for another co-worker who just had a baby and I think it turned out pretty cute! We had a rubber duck theme!!


I had to post a picture of the very first diaper cake I made for a friend for her shower about two years ago! I just love it!

Quick Cards

So when I was in Target the other day they had these packs of cards with envelopes and they were plain so I added a little something to each one and I like how they turned out! What do you think?




More Countdown Calendars

I also worked on some more calendars this weekend! They are time consuming, but I really like them! I think I have about 6 now! Hope people like them! Have a good one!





Dashing Christmas Card

I got the "Dashing" paper pack from SU and made some cards this weekend. I love this pack! I made quite a few others, but I need to "color" them so I will post those later when they are done!

Gift Tags

I purchased the tag set from the Holiday Mini catalog from SU. I love this set! I worked on making some tags this weekend! I also used the Wintergreen paper from SU...love it! Hope you're having a great day!

Altered Frap Jars!

I started working on my jars this weekend for the craft show in two weeks! I am pretty happy with how they turned out! I don't think I am going to fill them with anything, that way people can choose what they want to fill them with! What do you think?
