Jam Drop and some games I made

So I haven't posted in a while. I closed a party and am super close to my second month being active. But I really need to book another party. Maybe I will do my own. But I made a Jam Drop today at the post office.
I was mailing some prizes and samples and took 5 of my Fall 7 Day Challenge packs(samples) for the workers. And go figure it was a man. I so wanted to talk myself out of giving the old mail man sample nail stuff. But I did it. He even put one in his shirt pocket for his wife. So that hopefully will be great. 

And I made some games and parties. I made

Black Friday Party

I made a new pick a princess. I don't know if it is compliant though because it uses Disney images. But I am using it until someone let's me know.
Use at your own risk. Available here

I did not make the images for this 12 Days of Christmas game. I only made the title image.

And I leave you with my current nail-fie
See you later.

Fall Samples

I am so flipping excited! I made my fall samples and they are just as cute as I imagined them to be. So I have been seeing to higher ranking people in videos and stuff talk about their sample packs. So I wanted to make some to. Most of them have links to the place they order their supplies from but when you go to the links its like $5 for 20 self adhesive acid free blah blah blah bags. I am to cheap for that stuff. So here's my instructions for...

Frugal Fall Jamberry Samples
OK first I printed out business cards and these fall sample cards from staples. $.50 for a page.
Those fit 6 per page.
So then I needed a baggie type thing to put them in. So I was gonna get some snack sized ziplock bags but that wouldn't look as good. So I went to Michael's (I had a coupon for 25% off the entire purchase) and found these little jewelry ziplock bags.
These were $3.50 for 175. The tape was ripped so there could very well only be 170 bags in there I don't know. But still seemed like a good deal so I got them.
Now first I had to put my business card in there. Go figure it's the exact same size as the bag. So I had to shave the top and bottom a little so they would fit past the zipper part. Good thing I printed them myself. But they look good in the bag. 
Then I put the goodies inside. An application instructions sheet, file (from dollar tree. 20 for a dollar), orange stick, rubber cuticle pusher, alcohol wipe (100 for $3.00 at Rite Aid), and flosser (pack from dollar tree) for removal. 
Lastly I was going to get some of that grassy straw stuff to tie them together. $7 for a bag of that stuff. Uh No. So I got orange ribbon and brown ribbon for $.99 each. (After the coupon the bags and ribbon were $3 after tax) I cut two holes the top of the bag and card and tied them together.

I am in love with these!!!! 
What do you guys think?

My "NAILfie" board

Ok its been a few days. I made the rest of the Mistle "toes" and "Mani" Christmas wrap holders for my daughters teachers and bus driver. However I have not gotten the wraps for them yet so I will post pictures once I get those and the bows. May try the ornaments for my favorite customers.

I made some advertising cards that I need to get printed so I can drop off at local businesses. I would post a picture but its a word document.

And I did more days of thankfulness

Now the main point of this post. My NAILfie board.

I am happy with this. I took the back cover off the start-up guide for the background. And I cut the jamberry part off the front. I taped them to a piece of cardboard and TaDaaa. I will post with it a lot. And that is Mani this week but I have a picture with the names hold on...
Nifty nifty! I like it! The color under Swanky is not Jamberry. It was my daughters neon green. Any who. Talk to you guys later!

My Mistle "toes" knockoff

So while searching the web for fun Jamberry thing I came a cross this website: http://persialou.com/2014/11/free-printable-nail-themed-gift-tags.html
On this web site I found this picture... 

And I thought "OMG that's what I will give to mini me's teachers" it has a free printable and everything. Then it occurred to me that my USB parts on my computer don't work. Soooo I will go to Staples and print it. "No stupid that costs money" I said to myself. So I hit my art box. I found green card stock and markers. Ok I'm making it work. So I hit the dollar tree and got red washi tape. I wanted red Christmas type tape. But I couldn't find it. Go figure. It is only November. But I found red with white hearts. Ah close enough. So I got to work early and set to work. Here is what I came up with:

It's a half sheet of "Let It Snow", nail file, cuticle pusher, orange stick, and alcohol wipe.I taped them to an application sheet inside the holder. I think it's really neat.

30 Days of Jamberry Thanks days 1-5

Okay... it's 4 a.m. and I just woke up. Granted I just fell asleep but it's okay I have time to nap tomorrow. So as I lay here in bed because it just time to be in bed I start playing on my phone and stumble on this awesomeness.
