Butterflies


Here's one of my latest jewelry endeavors--a rainbow butterfly bracelet! I added one of the butterfly beads as a charm to add a little more whimsy. I love making these for other people--they are way simple and quick to make. I think I enjoy making bracelets more than any other type of jewelry because they are so quick and easy, so you get your end result when you want is (aka NOW). :) I hope you take the time to make something pretty today! Happy beading!

Embossed Thank Yous







I love my Sizzix Purse! It makes card creating way quick, easy and beautiful! These are some thank you cards I made for those who helped me to celebrate my birthday last month. :) If you've never used a dry embossing technique, you should try it out! It's super quick and easy and way fun! I find it very satisfying to reel my paper through and see the result. I hope you take the time today to create something to say thanks to a special someone in your life! Happy crafting!!!

Re-Discovering Stamps!


So, I have been trying to use supplies and stamps that I haven't used for a while. I was looking through old Stampin' Success magazines and saw the set that I received at a Mini-Convention years ago, and it made me want to pull it out. Luckily, I hadn't gotten rid of it!!! Here is the card I made with the set. I love it! The set is awesome--big circles of dots or lines and then lined flowers with two sentiments...neither of which I used on this card, but I love them! I hope this inspires you to create today! Happy stamping!

A Simple Tree

I love stamps that let me make quick and easy beautiful images. This set is one that I wanted, but it was from a mini catalog and it wasn't to be. Enter garage sales! This is the first card I made with it. ;) I highlighted some of the image with my clear glitter gel pen (which seems to be my new favorite accessory) to give the card a little pizzazz.  I hope this inspires you to create something today! Happy crafting!


VINTAGE FIND!!!

I went garage sale-ing today and I found two tubes of vintage glass glitter for 10¢!!! Champagne pink and light cerulean blue. I'll be using them soon!!! Happy crafting!
