Jewelry Post! I have been playing around with beads again!

This is just a quick post to share what I have been creating this weekend….

I love jewelry making….  There is so many possibilities!  I have also been toying with making my own paper beads and I will post some of those creations later.

Here is another set I have made….

I am really having a lot of fun making these!

I hope you all have had a wonderful weekend.  We are preparing for a major blizzard here in Nova Scotia starting tomorrow.  Thank goodness it is my day off.  Looks like I will have some more time to spend in my craft room, when I am not shoveling snow!

Thanks for stopping by!

Fabulous!

Good Morning!  I have been spending time making some pretty cards this past weekend and I thought I would pop on and post a picture.

I picked up this beautiful paper at Michael’s on clearance – Sweet Mint by Craft Smith.  I was able to get a coordinating paper pad of solid card stock as well so I will be making quite a few cards with these papers.  They are beautiful!!  I am excited that I finally got myself a Mini Minc!  I have just started to use it and I was able to successfully create my sentiment for the front of my card using the Minc and silver foil.  Love It!!

I hope you all have a great day and thanks for stopping by!!

2 Stepping….

Hi Blog Friends…

I know I have been very lazy with posting to my blog.  I really need to get better at this!  Everything just seemed to get so busy for me with getting ready for Christmas etc.  I am really going to try to do better with this!

I found some time today to play in my craft room and make a few cards.  I pulled out three of my 2 step stamping sets.

This first one is by Stampin’ Up called Stippled Blossoms.  I stamped them using Tim Holtz Distress Inks Milled Lavender and Dusty Concord.

Next I used Stampin’ Up Lotus Blossoms, using Stampin’ Up Ink – Night of Navy, Marina Mist and Soft Sky….

For this last card I used the Technique Tuesday, Two Steppin’ stamp set.  I used Onyx Black Versafine ink for the outline and Stampin’ Up Rose Red for the inside of the flowers…

I hope you all had a lovely Christmas!  Thanks so much for stopping by!!

Some Jewelry Making!

Hi Friends!  I love my card making and paper crafting projects but I have been really enjoying some Jewelry making projects as well!  I hope you don’t mind this post as it is a little off topic as my blog has been primarily about paper crafting.  I have more cards to share so stay tuned….

These are pretty memory wire bracelets that I have made with beads that I have found locally and from ebay purchases.  I am totally hooked on making these! Thanks for popping by!!!  ❤

Lazy me…

Hi Everyone… I have been very lazy about posting to my blog and I really need to make a point of getting back into the regular habit of posting what I have been creating.  I do post regularly to Facebook because it is just so easy to snap a picture with my phone and it is instantly posted.   Here are some things I have been making…

I have decided to do some classes from home and I will be teaching this on tomorrow evening 🙂  They are made with the heartfelt creations botanical wings collection of stamps and dies.  They are just lovely and the flowers are so easy to make!  Love it!!

It has been so long since I posted anything I am not sure how this post is going to turn out!  Oh well, I might as well take the plunge and hit publish and let the chips fall as they may!  Thanks for stopping by!!  

Back to posting…..

Hey!  I can’t believe I haven’t made a post since October!  I have been busy crafting away but have been totally neglecting my blog.  I had an amazing Christmas, I was spoiled beyond!  (and I loved it)  LOL!!  I spent most of November and December toying around with  making some jewelry and I will be posting some pic’s here to share with those of you who are interested, but of course, I will continue with my cards and paper crafting as well!  Here’s a lovely Sympathy card I made last night using a couple of Rubber Stamp Tapestry peg stamp sets I have….

I love that you can mix up these sets, they all seem to go so well together!

Stamps used:

SFK34015 Triple Floral Dragonfly

SFL34065 Southern Dogwood

Ink:

Adirondack Cranberry

Brilliance Pearlescent Poppy

Memento Pistachio

Stampin’ Up Pistachio Pudding

I hope you all had a fantastic Christmas!!

Morning Lilies Peg Stamps….

Happy Friday!

I scored some new Rubber Stamp Tapestry Peg Stamp sets and I tucked into my craft room last night to ink them up….

The stamp set is called Morning Lilies but I decided to make them Christmas Lilies!  Once I got them all finished I thought I might take them over to The Cutting Garden to see if these should be posted as a class.

Here is a closer look at them…

As you can see, I am still in Christmas card mode so I am sure you will be seeing more like this from me in the near future!

Have a great weekend!
