Weekend creation

I'm excited that my shopping for various tools, findings, charm blanks and stainless steel shot (for the tumbler) had some really cute results! To the left is a sample of my "charm"-ing new necklace line. Totally customizable with initials, names, different bead accents, etc. What fun!

Can you believe this? The famed pilot of the US Air flight 1549 asked for an extension on his library book that he left behind in the downed plane. Would any of us have even thought about it?

Today's new cards

I just finished a batch of "charm cards" featuring charms made out of shrink plastic, tied with pretty ribbons to the front of the cards. Rubber stamp (Stampin' Up design and ink) embellishments on the card and envelope. I know they're kinda difficult to see here, but each will be loaded onto my etsy shop tonight so you can get a better view.

Surfing the etsy forums today I was reminded that I can embed short videos into my blog. You can make one like this for free at animoto. Check out my shop if you get a chance. I've got more than just jewelry there now: cards, Gocco prints, photos and more.
