Easy Beaded Version of the Wire Heart Pendant

Here's another variation of my recent Wire Wrapped Heart Pendant, this time with simple beading in place of the wire wrapping.  I used the same design, with the same heart and key charms as well as the same bright red beads.  This time I used aluminum wire for the brighter silver color and added bright silver spacer beads between the red.  I'm really happy with the end result.  I hope you like it too.

Thanks Card ~ My First Simon Says Stamp Shipment

My first card using Simon Says Stamp products!  I challenged myself to use minimal supplies for this "Thanks" card.  I'm happy with the way it turned out an I love the printed background created by randomly stamping the "Thanks" sentiment over and over in different fonts (all included in the one stamp set (link below)).

BeYOUtiful Bluebird Card

Set the scene for Springtime with this Be-YOU-tiful bluebird card.  I used a sew-on embellishment as the wing on my Springtime Bluebird to add interest and dimension.  I added texture with die cuts and stickers.  Pull out your stash, get Craftie, and see what a beYOUtiful card YOU can create.

Wire Wrapped Heart Pendant

Create your own heart-shaped pendant for Valentine's Day using wire and a few beads from your stash.  I love the creative freedom that comes with wire wrapping.  I'm not bound by a predetermined shape and size.  I can form my wire into any shape, in any size, that I want.
