Spring Creation Self Challenge Projects #8-14 & Is That the Scent of Sweet Candy??!!

Jewelry was the theme this afternoon in my crafting corner! Check out some of my newest pieces! Again the photo credit goes to my friend Aleana Howard. Check out her website here!

-- Project # 8 of 30 -- Lock & Key Necklace --

It is hard to see but there are little crystals on the lock, where the bolts would normally be, for an added flare! -- Project # 9 of 30 -- Blue Shell Pendant w/ Silver Inlay Necklace --
This pendant called my name from the shelf and I knew it would make a GREAT birthday gift for someone I know who happens to be having a birthday really soon! (wink, wink) Hope she likes it!

-- Project # 10 of 30 --Flower/Star/Heart/Butterfly Enamel Pendants Necklace --
These little pendants are great because you can use them individually or in any combo for a fun look!

-- Project # 11 of 30 -- Silver Dragonfly w/ Green&Clear Crystals Necklace --

I just loved this dragonfly! I like simple pendants with a little added flare! Hmm..think I'll have to make one for myself! :)
-- Project # 12 of 30 -- B&W Butterfly w/ Crystals Necklace --
This is another charm that screamed my name as I walked by. It begged me to come home with me and the rest is history! Isn't she pretty??

-- Project # 13 of 30 -- Flower & Butterfly "Beauty" Sage Background Necklace --

I liked this series of charms because they were simply beautiful and reminded me to look for the beauty in everyday life.

-- Project # 14 of 30 -- "Beauty" Butterfly Sage Background Necklace --

Spring Creation Self Challenge Projects #4-7!

WOW! I've been awfully busy the last few days! I have been creating up a storm! I have a little bit of everything for you tonight (or maybe I should say, "this morning"...I really need to go to bed!! lol) My wonderful friend, Aleana, took these pictures today for me! My camera was just NOT cutting it! Hop on over to her website to see her AMAZING work!

-- Project #4 of 30 -- "Miss You" Metallic Butterfly Card --

This card is a design of The Inspiration Station where I took a "Quick & Easy" Card making class the other day! LOVED it! Really, they are all quick and easy! :D I took the class for this card. I knew as soon as I saw it on their website who I was sending it to! The "Miss You" sentiment is a stamp from my own collection as they didn't have a "miss you" stamp there to use. This was my very first "ink job" (smile) using Vintage Photo Distress Ink by Tim Holtz. It turned out a little darker than I would have liked but it was a learning experience! I wish you could see how beautiful this butterfly is in "real" life! We used "Perfect Pearls" Pigment Powder (another first for me!) and I LOVED it! I can't wait to stock up! :)

This picture shows the dimension and a close up of the Pearls! Love those too! :)

-- Project #5 of 30 -- Flowery Stamped Note card --

Another Inspiration Station Design. What a beautifully simple card to construct! Would you believe there are THREE different stamps on this card?? Stunning! I have wanted the lacy punch for quite some time and I think I'm putting it on my wish list for this weekend finally!Showing a side view of the dimensions again! LOVE my pop dots!! (And my pearlies too!!)

-- Project #6 of 30 -- "Thinking of You" Butterfly Card --

This card was SO, SO, SO easy to make! We stamped the background image twice; once on the card and once on a white piece of card stock. Colored in the white card stock buggies with our choice of coloring utensils (I used pencils, as my Copic class isn't until next month!), cut the buggies out and pop dotted them right over top of there counterparts on the card! Added some blueish pearlies (smile) and ribbon and VIOLA! Finished Product!! Oh, we also distressed the edges with Vintage Photo ink. Definitely got the hang of it now! :)Close Up of my handywork! :)Lastly, a close up of the Dimensions and Sentiment w/ BLING! :)

-- Project #7 of 30 -- "Oh Happy Day" Squirrel Card --

This last card designed by Inspiration Station was a little more tedious as there was inking, actual paper distressing and coloring to be done! Not to mention wrapping the twine and making sure to have enough left over to tie the button on! lol ;) "oh happy day" is a stamp with the dots added in with a black fine tip marker. The squirrel (Isn't he soo cute!!??) and the logs are stamped and the "bounce" line is hand drawn with a black fine tip marker. REALLY like this card!

Well, those are the card creations for the last day or so...stay tuned for another post featuring some jewelry creations! Which card was your favorite? *Hugs*
