Cute bracelet

These are very popular in the UK at present with the Olympics and all that there is no getting away from the patriotic flag. I actually really like these beads myself and this design is proving very popular as I think it's the 4th bracelet including the flag bead that I have been asked to make this week! All in various combinations with other beads or even on its' own! I better place another order for these beads before the British mania ends... What do you think? maybe we need beads with the French flag too to even things out.....

Just a little card...

This card was made with background papers from My Mind's Eye "29th Street Market". The flowers are a selection of docrafts paper flowers to which I added holographic glitter glue. The butterfly is a Cheery Lynn die cut that I inked to give it some depth. I used a stamp from My Paper World: "labelling Fields" (art. no 4003 003 00) which I embossed with Wow embossing powder "Earthtone Olive". All the edges are inked in Rangers "Walnut" distressed ink. The flourishes are marianne creatables, not sure of the reference as I lost the packaging but it is a fairly easy one to get hold of. So there you have a little card on its way to wish my partner's daughter a happy birthday indeed!

Jewellery

Had to find presents for teachers and teaching assistants as my daughter was leaving her primary school and wanted to thank all of them for all their efforts with her over the last 7 years. Chocolate seemed a bit predictable so I made them each a little piece of jewellery. I am not sure if they all liked them but they said so , so that's good enough for me!







What do you think, any favourite?
