Debi, Sue & Friends Meet for Apples!!

This quarter we had nine friends join us for our Appleicious Theme!
Sue showed us how to made fresh Apple Butter!  An easy recipe she found online.  
Our amazing Sue cooked up batches of Apple Butter at home so that she had completed Apple Butter and half made Apple Butter.   She is amazing!  The Friends helped cut the apples and put them into the crock pot!


From there Sue took us, magically, to the pot of Apple Butter that was ready to process!


We then filled the jars!


The finished product!


Sue made these awesome labels and tags using our DS&F Logo!

For our craft, we stamped canvas bags using real apples!


We used So-soft Fabric paints in reds, greens and yellows.  
We used brown for the stems and black for the seeds.  


Cutting the apple one direction gives a nice traditional apple shape.
Cutting the apple across the middle gives a cute star shape in the center.



We think our friends did a wonderful job with their bags!!!
Let me know what you think!

Kathy & Pete's Wedding Box

Made with items from the wedding and reception!

The bandanna was wrapped around fresh homemade pies that were centerpieces at the reception.  I used  Mod Podge on the outside of the cigar box and adhered the bandanna to the box.

Attached to the bottom of the box, is a label that the out of town guests received in their hospitality bag!

The inside of the box is painted white and I attached photos, stickers, my invitation and other memorabilia  from the wedding and reception.

Inside the box!
The invitation!

Inside the lid!

Parents and inlaws!

My place card and another sticker!

Hope you enjoyed looking!  Leave me a comment and let me know what you think!
