MIA for a While!!!

I see it has been a long time since I have posted anything here.  In fact, it has been so long that I have forgotten my password to my blogger account!!!  Anyway, I have been busy working on next year's VBS at our church!!!  At first I was a little reluctant to go with this year's theme, but the more I think about it, the more I am thinking about all the cool stuff I can work in to spread God's word to our kids in the community!!  I have decided to hold several fund raisers for VBS this year.  Our first major fundraiser is a pie sale!!  We have decided to sell pies for Thanksgiving.  So far it seems to be very successful!!!  Looks like we are going to make over $500 for our first fundraiser!!  God is at work already for our church!!  Next, we are looking at selling fresh wreaths and having a craft/bake sale.  I have been very busy working on cards, cards of all kinds!!  I have decided to share some of my creations that will be sold this year for VBS.  Just remember, if you are interested in purchasing anything that you see here, please send me an email or leave me a message here.  I will get back with you ASAP.




This is a mix of similar cards. They are 6.5 x
5 inches each. 
There are 2 in this set.  These are also 6.5 x 5
inches each.



There are 8 in this set.  The different colors and patters are just a little different in each
 card, but the set is mainly the same.  These are also 6.5 x 5 inches each.





There are also 8 cards in this set.  You get 2 of each design.  They

There are 10 cards in this set.  They are blank on the inside.  They are somewhere
around 3 x 4 inches.


This set is around 2 x 3 inches.  It is a small note set.  It is done is a
Christmas style.  Will be great to attach to gifts or just to send a little
Christmas hello to someone.

This set is also around 2 x 3 inches.  They are blank inside.  Great for a little thank you,
hello, or just general everyday greetings.

Another set of 2 x 3 cards that can be used for general everyday use.  They are
also blank on the inside.

I think there are about 8 in this set.  They are blank with a small design on the
inside.  They were made from 5 x 7 inch papers.  This makes them
around 3.5 x 5 inches.  They have an inspirational
message stamped on the outside and can be used for
general everyday use.

There are 8-10 cards in this set.  They are around 3-3.5 inch squares.  Another
set that are great for a little Christmas note.

This is a set of 8 Christmas cards.  They have an inspirational message
stamped on the inside of the card.  They are 6.5 x 5 inches.  Each card has
a different design.


This is a set of 10 everyday cards.  They are around 4-5 inches on each side.
They are blank on the inside with an area to write.  They are also great for
everyday use.

I do not remember how many are in this set.  They can also be separated into two
different sets.  They are great for small birthday cards.  They are blank on the inside.
They measure about the same as the above set of cards.

I believe there are 7-8 cards in this set.  They are general everyday use cards.  They are 3.5 x 5 inches.

on the inside.


This is a necklace made with glass and metal beads.  I have not measured them so I am not sure exactly
how long they are.  They are not choker style necklaces.


This is also a glass and metal bead necklace.  It is very neutral in color and is great
to wear with many different colors.  It is also not a choker style necklace.


Another metal and glass bead necklace.  It is also not a choker necklace.


Again, another glass and metal bead necklace.  This one is slightly shorter than the rest, but
still not a choker style necklace.  Has small pink drops around the necklace.



Another glass and metal bead necklace.  This one has several aqua-colored
flower beads around it.  Also, not a choker style necklace.
Another fun, neutral-colored necklace that will go with many different
colors.  Each accent bead is different due to the difference of color in the beads.
Not a choker necklace.
Another longer necklace made from glass, metal, and natural stone chips.  The chips are
a turquoise color alongside a varying dark brown to black color.  They are accented with
a faceted bead covered on both ends with metal bead caps.

Again, if anyone is interested in anything I have here, please feel free to email me at the_roaddummy_1@sbcglobal.net or you can just leave me a message here and I will get back with you ASAP.  I will also be posting other items for sale in the next couple of weeks.  I also have live wreaths for sale that will benefit our VBS.  I will post some pictures of these soon and you can message me if you are interested.  They are simply beautiful and would make a nice addition to any holiday decor!!!  Thank you for looking and I hope you can help us raise money for VBS!!!!
