Dry Embossing

I made this for the challenge at Cheery Lynn Designs:http://cheerylynndesigns.blogspot.com/2012/01/cheery-lynn-designs-challenge-12-dry.html They have some really nice embossing plates but I didn't have time to order one for the challenge so I made my own using their Exotic Butterflies Small to make my own. Two pieces of thin chipboard is the perfect height for the plate so I cut two of each butterfly and glued together before placing on the plate. The larger butterfly is their Exotic Butterflies Small #2 I Love how each set comes with 3 different butterflies. It was hard to capture the embossing so I scanned them in but the scan does not show the true colors so sharing the photo too. Thanks for stopping by!

Stamped Heart Necklace

I stamped the heart using Hero Arts CL151 Clear Designs Share Laughter set and Color Box chalk ink, Then I blanket stitched around it. Flowers are Prima. Ribbon is Offray. Jewerly findings and ribbon crimps came from Hobby lobby. My little guy took a photo of me wearing it while jumping on the bed so not the best photo but you get the idea :) Thanks for stopping by!

First Beaded Necklace!

Love when I can use scrappy stuff to make jewerly. The owl was a plastic diecut I just added an eyelet to turn it into a pendant. Then found matching purple and green beads. Thanks for stopping by!

Birds of a Feather

Flock Together...The three little birds were in a little bag of beads Momma brought back from Arizona. I miss her so much :( I wanted to do something special with them so made this necklace. I put them on wire and placed them inside the birdcage. Not sure they really show up well enough in there...might have to so something else?

Celebrate!
