Swarovski Jewels on my Shop...

Both of these catch the light beautifully. As usual, photographs don't capture the real glitter of them. Imagine wearing the bracelet on a sunny day, moving your arm and watching the light glisten on your wrist.

The earrings only have a small drop, but have enough movement that they will also catch each sunbeam.

Look What I Bought and Made!

I bought these stamps from Folksy, from a great seller called Skull and Cross Buns. I decided that they were perfect for my business cards, because a 'chickadee' is a bird! They have come out beautifully and I am going to be proud to send them out with sold pieces.

Skull and Cross Buns say that the stamps can take up to a week, because they are hand carved after you order them, but mine arrived in three days. Brilliant service!

This is the patchwork bracelet I was commissioned to make for a friend's daughter. I ordered Gill's buttons for it but they were slightly too big. However, I couldn't NOT use one in it, so I used it for the clasp, which I think looks really sweet. Hopefully she will like it - she is nearly 7.

Some more cards...

I would really love some feedback on the house card. I drew it myself and can't decide if it is good enough to give to someone. Is it obvious that the smoke makes a heart? I am probably going to colour in key things like the front doors, and do something to the white space at the top and bottom.

Two cards

I was just playing last night and quite liked this colour combination, so I made two similar cards. The paper is already adheshive, so they were really quick to make.
