Just finished!


Some more sample cards for After Midnight. I loved playing with the background stamp and colors. When I finished it up, I thought Egyptian. Just happened to have a new Egyptian stamp.

I just love this tree stamp! It looks great all by itself layered on this simple card. I used Spellbinders labels four dies. It would make a great guy card.


On these kitties, I used Memories Mists and masked the image. The ca

rdstock in the background is Black Magic Coredinations. I embossed it in the Wizard with the Impressabilities butterflies after spritzing it with Wonder Goo. Then I sanded the embossed area to show the pretty base color through.

Working on jewelry



I have been spending a little time on metal projects this week. I decided to quit being such a chicken and make friends with my dremmel. Yay! Not so scary after all. Best of all, I was able to easily cut the opening in this piece of copper.

The dremmel also makes quick work of the filing. That makes me very happy because I hate the filing part, especially if I have alot of pieces to do.

Here is a necklace and earring set that I did as a gift for a friend.

This is a ring I made with a vintage button. It's not quite finished yet.
I only had enough fine silver wire for one band. I'd like to make a couple more bands and do some wrapping for added stability.
