Where have I been hiding?

I have been sitting in the studio working away at prepping all the items for our large Day crop.  All I can say is I’m actually glad that I’m not going to CHA in California this year because I would probably be going out of my mind with adding that to the list of items to take care of.

I can actually check out all my suppliers on line and see who has what to offer as far as specials and new products are concerned.  It’s just really nice to be able to play touchy feely if you know what I mean.  If only I could clone myself then I could take care of everything.  Imagine 2 of me roaming around out there YIKES

I have had my head to the grindstone prepping 175 of everything possible for this crop of ours and I finally completed the fans that will be on the tables.  I will give you a glimpse of the fan so you can see what I have been doing and why I have been hiding

 

Our theme is Victorian and in Victorian days fans were very popular.  Feathers were also popular and therefore that is how I came up with this idea – this really was a no brainer.

The process for this fan has been unbelievable.  First we cut the fan using the Sizzix die and glued to cardstock pieces together then cut out the paper and glued that to the front and back.  Then we inked the edges of the fans.  I misted with Glimmer Mists,  a piece of doily (that I cut) and glued that on.  I printed off the photo of Queen Victorian and ran that through the Spellbinder (one at a time) then added a few pearls and a couple of ribbons – whew

So now I’m on to the next project and I still have alot of work to do.  Maybe I’ll tease you with that one too
