sterling silver jewelry

Hello! Today I'm sharing the jewelry I made recently. I shared these on FB so sorry if it's a repeat for some of you. I've been admiring some of the cute and delicate sterling silver jewelry on Etsy. And you know, being a crafter I can't just buy the finished product, I need to actually try to make it. I've dabbled in some jewelry making years ago so I have some of the basic tools already.

Here is a bracelet with a tiny cloud charm. The chain is really very delicate. Oh and sorry, but all that glue on my clothespins is so noticeable in these photos! Kind of messy looking. Anyway, I'm not too into this charm anymore since discovering that they are so thin and too fragile. The cloud bends too easily!

Here is one with a sweet bow. I love this one. I had seen a similar one on Etsy so had to make one too. These are really sweet for weddings to give to bridesmaids with a saying about tying the knot. Isn't that cute?

This is a sterling silver bar necklace about 18 inches long. I love these bar necklaces and I guess they are kind of a popular thing these days.

Here is a close up. I stamped the kanji for beautiful off centered onto the bar. You could stamp and personalize this bar with just about anything. It'll be fun trying to think of new designs.

Well, thanks so much for stopping by!

Snowman gift card holder

Hi! I was planning to post this last night but I was just too tired to write or think of complete sentences. It's been a busy week with the boys on Fall break and still trying to finish up a bunch of crafts. I have been trying to make some crocheted crafts to put in my Etsy shop and finally I'm done with one. It's a crocheted snowman that can hold a gift card or anything actually that is small enough to fit in the pouch. The pattern is designed by ChiWei Ranck of One Dog Woof and can be found HERE . Here's the little snowman with his arms folded over in the front to look like he is hugging the card. I added this fun card that I stamped. You can definitely add in a gift card too behind this card. The gift card reaches under his nose. This is how the little opening of the pouch looks. I hope I can make more of these little guys. These would be so cute for teachers and I think it would be easy to put a little wire throug...

coffee cup shaped cards

Hi! I think after this post I may need a little nap! My right shoulder is actually feeling worn out from all the typing and photo editing I've been doing lately. And this cooler weather is making me drowsy. It's getting cold here already! I made a bunch of these coffee shaped cards using a die from Honey Bee Stamps . It's a cute coffee set but the die is extra long so it would probably help to have a longer platform to diecut. I just have the standard sized one so I would pass it through once in my Big Shot and then rotate the cardstock and die carefully to cut the other end. Manageable but the longer platform would be more convenient! I embossed the front of the card with some pretty snowflakes. I think this is a Sizzix embossing folder. And then stamped the coffee sleeve with some Lawn Fawn stamps. This is the inside. The gift card slot does not come with this coffee cup die set. I cut that opening with one ...

Knuffle Bunny

Hi! The Greeting Farm had their Customer Challenge & Chit Chat Night "A Night at the Bookstore" and introduced a few challenges. I have to say chatting was too fast for me and I couldn't really keep up. It was still early here, and I had to pick up the kids from school and activities and make dinner and eat and so I guess the timing didn't really work out with our schedule. You can check out the challenge details on the SCS forum HERE . I made this card for Favorite Child's Book category. It is based on the Mo Willems book Knuffle Bunny . It's one of my kids' favorites and it's such a cute story. We actually love reading Mo Willems' books especially his Elephant and Piggie series. Those books are hilarious! This challenge also made me realize that I haven't read many books recently except kids' books. I used to love reading but just haven't given it much time lately. Anyway, here is my card. If you've read the story...
