Beading

These are some simple beaded pieces I have made and sold. The bracelets are what I call Cha Cha Bracelets and the beaded goddess pin is one i made for teaching classes here in NC.

Paper Artsy Rubber Stamp art

I used rubber stamps from a UK based company called Paper Artsy for these pieces. Two are tags, the clock woman image is stamped onto an extra large playing card and the necklace is made from a formica tag. There is a brass open frame around the face and a real mini key hanging from the hole.

These are some ATC's I made awhile back using Innovative Stamp Creations rubber stamps. Will post newer ones when I can.

Tag Book pages

These are the pages for the tag book. They were made from paint chip sample cards that were stamped and collaged with images. I cut them to match the shape of the tag covers. For the back of each tag I glued on textured heavy cardstock and stamped simple images to match the fronts. The little lizard is made from foam that I colored with chalk inks and then stamped onto. This was a fun project. I hope the recipients liked them as much as I did making them!

Tag Book for swap

This is a cover to a tag book I made recently for a swap on a Yahoo group. The covers are made with linoleum that were colored with Ranger Adirondack alcohol inks and then stamped. When I sealed them with a waterbased matte varnish it crackled the inks as it dried...which made for a way cool effect! The goat tag on the front is made from a formica sample colored and stamped in the same inks. My nickname at home is goatmom..hence why there is a goat on here. The mini bottle is colored with the same inks and mini strips of artful and goaty words were placed inside along with some crystals to add a bit of sparkle.

Old CD Jewelry

These are jewelry piece I made using old CD's that were painted with Ranger Adirondack Alcohol inks and then cut into shapes. i then stamped the images with a permanent ink nad sealed them with Glossy Accents. The mini domino was done in the same manner adding silver micro beads onto the top edge.

Beaded Cabachons

Here are a few of my beaded cabachons. The two top ones are Dichroic glass cabs a friend made and the bottom cab is one I made from polymer clay. They are beaded with 11º and 15 º seed beads as well as 11º Delica beads and have ultrasuede backing.

Another Die cut

This card was made with a large key die cut and some mini tag die cuts from Debbie's Die Cuts. I used Distress inks to age and stamp the card and die cuts.

New to Blogging

Hi all, I am very new to this but thought it would be a great way to share my art. I will do my best to share new and old art as often as possible. My art includes stamping, papers, inks and paints, altering anything I find useful, beading and polymer clay! So hopefully there will be something for everyone to ogle. Thanks for looking and hope you come back often!

This is a heart die cut from Debbie's Die Cuts that has been inked, stamped and collaged with paper and printed image and a sheet magnet was glued onto the back.
