It’s a JustRite Day
In the past I’ve had to be content to just read about it. But this summer..THIS WEEK!.. I’m going! Where? I’m going to the Craft and Hobby Association’s (CHA) Summer Convention and Trade Show in Chicago!! And JustRite has asked ME to be one of their demos!! I can hardly believe it! Here is the little make ‘n take that I designed for the show.
They are a pair of bridesmaid’s dresses made with little table favor boxes cut on an AccuCut. I stamped Flourishes Damask background on vellum to create an overlay for the skirt. The scalloped hem is punched with one of Martha Stewart’s border punches. The dress bodice is Cuttlebug embossed with the Swiss Dots embossing folder. The JustRite monogrammed tags use new centers to be revealed at CHA!! The tags are cut and embossed with Spellbinders Circle Nestabilities. I used the Stardust Clear Pen to color in the rings and dot the centers of the little flowers on the border. The bands were first colored with a yellow marker. The Dotted Sheer Ribbon and Pearls on the prima and on the scalloped hem can be found at Flourishes.
I think JustRite is really going to have an exciting booth with lots of fun make ‘n takes.. 9 in all!!. They will be located in Booth #3309 and have 32 new products to introduce!! Here’s the schedule of events.

These boxes are wonderful! I would love to have the template…..where would one look for the template? Someone recently called me about making favors for a wedding and I think these would be just perfect. TFS

These favor boxes are SO pretty…. Where did you find the pattern, or are they already cut? You could do so many things with these!! I love your sparkly rings and the lace detail on them. Very pretty!!
And congrats on being selected by JustRiteStampers to be one who represents them at CHA — they made a wise choice! You do such beautiful work, Susan, and I know you’ll WOW everyone who stops by your booth! Travel safely and have lots of fun!
