Fair Results

The fair went well - I picked up our projects and my cash (SWEET!) on Sunday. I ended up getting Best of Show for the Professional Division on my purple 'Simple Beauty' layout, and I also ended up winning an additional award for that layout which was picked among all of the Craft Professional Best of Shows, so that was a really cool honor, plus an extra $10! I got second on the other layout that I entered. All of my cards and my book got first place, except one card (my favorite) ended up getting second. The girls were excited - they got ribbons - just Participation ribbons are given for the Kidz Class, but they didn't care, they were excited! It was fun - the hardest thing about our fair exhibits is that they don't display things by category, so everything is just kind of scattered all over the place, which I really don't get. It would be so much nicer to be able to see everything in the same category without searching the whole building. Anyway, it's been like that all 3 years that I have participated and I finally put in a suggestion to change that AND add more scrapbooking categories, so we'll see if next year is any better! Next year I plan on entering some photographs - I thought about it this year, but not until the last minute, and then I couldn't decide which pictures to enter. Now that I have been looking, there are a bunch I realize I should have entered! Next time I will be more prepared!

Anyway, thanks for letting me share!
