Make It Monday #195: 2014 A la Carte

It is no secret I am a HUGE Dawn McVey fan.She has an amazing, colorful style that I love to emulate! 

What is not to like about her! 

I really wanted to try this technique the week it was posted but I was so busy with my Christmas sales, I just didn't have time. By the way. Due to the generosity of MANY women, I donated $4500 to missions at my church to dig fresh water wells in Malawi, Africa!

GOD IS GOOD!

My card:

I really LOVE this technique! I did the frame where the edges were not mitered. 

I can see doing this a lot. It was really quick and adds a BIG punch.

I would have needed more flowers if not for the frame!

This one is for my Mothers 90th Birthday.

My sister Pat *Hi Pat! * is organizing a card shower.

The goal is 90 cards. My family of 5 will send 5!

Thanks Dawn for a fun, EASY MIM!

Snow Globe toppers

Did you know you can buy small clear ornaments at Michael's and make toppers for regular mouth jars???

They are not as high quality as PTI but work great!

I have sold a TON of them

Thank you for looking at my blog!

My Holiday Card Party

My amazing friend Jenny Gunter held a "Card" party for me last night.

There were 50'ish lovely women who attended.

Jenny provided amazing food and drink.

The women were VERY generous and bought almost $900 of my cards, treat favors, gift bags, gift card envelopes and of course a LOT of snow globe toppers and ornaments.

Thank you Jenny! She won't let me bring food. She is so generous she provides it all so I can spend my time making products!

Year to date I have $3457 to donate to missions at my church. I earmark these funds to build fresh water wells in Malawi, Africa!

Some of you saw the pictures of a lot of these things after I cut them out and as I was assembling the parts. 

Here are some pictures from last night:

GOD IS GOOD!!!
