Farmer's Market

As you're aware, I participated in a vendor and craft show over the weekend.  It was a lot of fun and I met some wonderful people.  Today I'm sharing with you one of the products I offered at the craft show.  It was a big hit !

Last summer, I saw a picture of some miniature shovels and I had to have them!  I wasn't sure what I was going to do with them, but I had to have them.

They came from a web site called Light in the Box, aren't they cute?

I played around with different ways to package them and wasn't really happy with anything.  Until about a month ago.  Here's what I came up with:

I stamped my card stock with the Hardwood stamp and then used the Wood Crate Framelits to create my crates.  Each crate has some crinkled paper in the bottom, a dirt pellet, mini shovel, clay pot and pack of seeds.  The little pick is from the retired From the Garden set.  I added a tag to the front of the crates from the Wood Words set.

And the special price for the bundle + everything mentioned above is $65.00.  Remember, this is a limited edition set, so if you are interest in this bundle, contact me with your Paypal email address so I can send you an invoice.  Once your invoice is paid, I will order your bundle.  The bundle will ship direct to you from Stampin Up.  The other workshop materials will be sent from me and may arrive at a different time than the bundle.
