Slightly Fancy

I have these beautiful pearl like charms that I wanted to create earrings from.

I wanted something that was beautiful that could be dressy,

but yet would also look good with jeans.

I love being versatile.

I placed one larger white pearl like bead, one smaller pearl like bead, 

and then another larger pearl like bead on a headpin.

I twisted the top of the headpin and attached it to a fishhook earring back.

I then took the three pearl like charms and put them on jump rings.

I attached those jump rings to the bottom of the headpin.

Upcycled Washers

I love upcycling objects to create new art!

My inspiration for this piece was washers.

Washers come in many different sizes, and can have pretty colors to them.

I decided to create earrings from various sized washers.

These fun earrings are made from washers and butterfly beads!

The butterflies are a greenish brown color.

They have hypoallergenic fishhook earring backs.

They hang apx. 3.25 inches from the fishhook earring.

Slightly industrial, upcycled, and steampunk. Be unique!

I created the earrings by using washers, jump rings, butterfly beads, and headpins.

I took three different sized washers and connected them together using jump rings.

I then connected the top smallest washer to the earring back using two more jump rings.

I ran a headpin through the butterfly beads and made a loop, connecting them to the bottom washer.

Fun Purse Cards

I have had some blank cards in the shape of purses that I bought a while back.

I have been wanting to use them to make some cute cards but

was having a hard time finding inspiration.

Then it struck me, these would be cute for something like a bridal shower or a wedding!

So I began creating!

The main part of each card is decorated with paper that has love and wedding sentiments.

One has a light pink polka dot top with pink rhinestone hearts and has pink heart ribbon running down the center.

One is hot pink with light pink lacey ribbon tied in a bow with clear rhinestones and a rhinestone heart.

One is teal with blue ribbon tied in a bow and clear rhinestones.

One has purple polka dots with light purple shimmery ribbon and a purple rhinestone.

The fifth one has green gingham with pretty green ribbon with green half back pearls.

These were easy and a lot of fun to make!

More Mustaches Please!

Mustaches seem to be quite the rage lately.

It is easy to see why though, something so simple can look so cute on different objects!

I recently shared with you a heart with a mustache card that I made.

I have made a handful more!

I kept with a red and black theme for all of them.

The red heart really made the mustaches "pop" versus a pink heart.

I really had fun making these and coming up with different types of eyes to draw!

I hope you enjoy these as much as I do!

Playing in the Water

Last Sunday was such a beautiful day.

We couldn't have such a wonderful day and not take Bella walking.

Her favorite part of walks is playing in the water at the boat landing.

These are a few of my favorite pictures from the many we took.

Hope you enjoyed them as much as I did!

Heart with a Mustache

I woke up this morning with a neat idea for a Valentine's card...

A heart with a mustache on it!

I came to realize that it probably had already been done, but I still wanted to go for it!

I knew the perfect mustache to use - the one from the "KISS This and That"

paper piecing set from Scraptastical Kreations.

http://www.scraptasticalkreations.com

I used black polka dot paper for the background. 

I then trimmed a border of red polka dot paper.

The heart I cut using my Cricut with the "Plantin SchoolBook" cartridge.

I drew the eyes with a black marker with silver accents.

I used a silver marker to add the accents to the mustache.

The mustache is actually adhered with 3D dots, so it sticks up from the card some. 

There is black ribbon with three red rhinestones.

Red glitter stickers for the letters "X" and "O".

Lime Green Love Bird

My focus today was to try and create some Valentine's cards that were of

untraditional Valentine's colors (red and pink).

I had a cute felt lime green bird that I based this card on.

The background is a blue, green, and brown floral pattern.

Green polka dot ribbons runs horizontally across the card, with a tan colored ribbon with love sentiments on top of that.

Pretty paper flowers with pearls decorate the lower corner.

A large green felt bird is the main focus of the card.It has a pearl eye.

A 3dimensional sticker that says "Be My Love" is located next to the bird.

This card is great for Valentine's day, a wedding, an anniversary, or just to show someone that you love them!
