SPIRELLI STRING ART

SPIRELLI! What is SPIRELLI?

No, it is not an Italian Pastry as my dear friend, Loretta asked. It is Dutch String Art. To me, it looks like the spirograph toys we played with, as kids.

Here is a quick look at Spirelli String Art in card making!

I hope you will try it. Thanks for stopping by.

TEA BAG FOLD CHRISTMAS TREE CARD

A DEAR, KIND, GENEROUS and LOVELY friend, Doris, taught me how to make this Tea Bag Fold Pattern for a Christmas Tree Card. I have made lots of them to send to family and friends and to donate.

Many folks have asked for the directions, so today I made a video and uploaded it to Youtube.com.

Below the video, you will find a few photos of these charming Tea Bag Fold Christmas Tree Cards!




Here are some examples:

It is three dimensional, but folds flat for easy mailing!

Thank You so much Doris!!

SEA GLASS PENDANT

Here is an authentic piece of sea glass from the Oregon coast. It was hand picked by my Fabulous Friend, Norma as she was strolling the beach with her husband. I thought this might make an interesting pendant. I wire wrapped it and added a few beads. Recycling a gift from Mother Nature is delightful. Thanks for stopping by!

HORSEY GET WELL CARD

This Get Well Card was created using Clear Dollar Stamps and a light blue CS base with yellow, brown and white layers of Nesties. I colored the horse with watercolor pencils and the leaves with metallic pastel watercolors. The background is an acorn stamp from Clear Dollar Stamps and I added a pale yellow bow. Simple and Sincere.... Thanks for stopping by.
