Bake Sale!!

I'm excited for the Bake Sale at church this Sunday.  Since I'm not a sports fan, I didn't realize that had planned a bake sale on Super Bowl Sunday. LOL!

Anyhoo, I'm starting to gear up and planning my strategy for all the baking, decorating, and presentation!  Tonight, I have all the cards made now just making the envies and finding my clear packaging to put the cards in!!

Will post pictures of everyone's creations...we have so many wonderful bakers at church excited to see what everyone does!

Floral Frog?!?!?!?!

I was checking in on some of my favorite crafting blogs and kept seeing this "card holder" that these ladies were using to display their cards. I LOVED it because it looked rustic and vintage looking.  I search high and low on the internet and couldn't find it! 

So I asked http://www.creationswithchristina.com/ and she told me it is called a floral frog and you can get them at Michael's in the floral department.

What is a floral frog?!?!?!?!  Flower frogs have been around for many, many years and they are now a highly collected item.  Used for flower arranging, they are meant to sit in the bottom of your vase or your bowl and the stems of the flowers are then placed inside the small holes.  Back in the days when a woman was often graded on the beauty of her home, it was common to have fresh flowers on display.  Typically these proud home makers would use flower frogs to help achieve their results.

Here is the floral frog and how how this crafter will be using it :)

ANGEL ANYA from The Greeting Farm

Love this stamp!  Using copic markers to make the different variations of this stamp gave be so much peace.  Reminds me of the verse: Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so [doing] some have unwittingly entertained angels..Hebrews 13:2
