I had my first open house since I have been in Florida and we had so much fun. This is the card we made using one of my new favorite stamp sets Work of Art!
Here are a few pics from the day! These are favors I made and they loved it. I cased the idea from Becky Roberts who is so talented and is one of my favorite demo sites to visit.
Below are Lana, Judy and Julie. They had finished shopping at my retired table and getting ready to go.
Kim stopped by to have a fun girls afternoon of stamping and fellowship. You can't see it too well but my friend June brought these beautiful flowers for me from her yard.
Below is Penny and June resting while peeking over at the retired table and checking out the catalog. They were so much fun.
We can't forget the food table.
