My New Hobby


This is my first attempt at jewellery making.  I bought myself some beads, wire and a gizmo and created this necklace and earrings.  I have also booked to go to a class in February so should be able to improve after that.



I am entering this into the challenge at Beading Friends Forever

Christmas is coming !!!


I thought it would be a good idea to keep up with my Christmas card making to save a rush at the end of the year.  This is my first one for 2014.


This is James the bear from LOTV, coloured with Promarkers.  I have embossed the background with a 6x6 holly folder from Crafter's Companion, then added die cut flowers and leaves.  The sentiment is also from LOTV.

Challenges:

Christmas at Sweet Stampin' - Festive Foilage
ABC Christmas - A is for anything Christmas
Winter Wonderland - Teddy Bears
