Visions of Santa, Paper Pumpkin and the Fair!

I'm exhausted today!  We set up yesterday for the first day of the fair.  Kim (my oldest) is having an airbrush booth. We have lots of technical difficulties the first day, but after 2 additional compressors and some trial and error, we think we having everything running.  I'm helping her out during the day and her sisters are helping after classes.  We're hoping business picks up, so if  you're out at the NEA Fair this week, make sure to stop by and get a temporary tattoo or face paint.  Here are a few photos:

My Paper Pumpkin subscribers should be receiving their kits soon (I haven't received mine yet), so I wanted to post this video by Stampin'Up! on how to use your kit.  I'm really excited about this one and plan to use mine for Halloween treats for the girls and their roommates at ASU.  Once I get my kit, I'll be sending out a bonus project to the subscribers.  Do you want one too?  Just sign up for My Paper Pumpkin's monthly kit (see link on right side of my blog) and you can get one of these great kits each month.  Make sure to put me down as your demonstrator!

Today's project is a fun holiday card using the new Visions of Santa stamp set.  This set is just too funny!

The Whisper White card stock was cut with the Party Pennants die and little strips of Santa & Co. DSP were added under a strip of Santa & Co. Designer Washi Tape.

Yes, I'm having Visions of Santa.
