State Fair Time

It is State Fair time coming up soon, so we are having some fun at our local stamp store where I work and have classes.  Right now we are having a fan contest, so this is my contribution.   State Fair vendors always have fans to hand out of course.....anything on a stick!!!  If you're local, there is still time to stop by, get a stick and make your own version.  We're Stampin' Mad

The fan is just hand cut out of black card stock and then layered with the print paper.  Also wrapped the stick in the print paper too.  I've used the Spellbinders mega ovals and foliage dies and Punch Bunch dahlia, birch, daisy and butterfly punches.

We also had a State Fair event on Saturday at the store and had some really fun projects to make.  Here is one of them:
 
What is a State Fair without animals?!!!  He is made with Spellbinders oval dies, Fiskars grass border, a heart and circle punches.   The fence is a die from the store and the clouds and thought bubble were hand cut.  There are kits, while supplies last, at the store  We're Stampin' Mad for you to buy.  Everything is ready to go, you get the fun part of assembling!!!

Of course thinking State Fair makes a person hungry thinking of any and everything deep fried besides being on a stick!!!  I better stay away!!!

Enjoy every day!

These are wonderful projects Patti-Jo and I adore the fan, it's so beautiful and striking too, the flower is fabulous! Love the piggy card also, a lot of fun and it made me laugh. I know what mean about going to fairs etc., why does the food that piles on the pounds always smell so good? LOL. Speak to you soon, hugs, Chris :)
