I love beading and <a href="http://www.totallybeads.co.uk/" target="_blank" title="">Totally Beads</a> is one of my favourite suppliers! The theme is Spring, so I decided to go for fresh green tones, then I got thinking about how the leaves are coming back and the trees are coming to life again so I chose to add some leaf and tree charms!</p><p> </p><p><u>The Bracelet!</u></p><p>I threaded the beads and charms on Tigertail Wire and used one of those metal springy things that nobody really knows the name of at the bottom of the wire so the beads didn't fall of, I added a clasp and finished it of with crimp covers, these cover up the squashed crimp beads and just look like little silver/gold/bronze/champagne etc. beads, they really neaten up a piece and gives it a more professional finish.</p><p> </p><p><u>The Earrings </u></p><p>These were fairly simple, I threaded a jade green bead onto an eyepin and created a loop at the top, before closing the loop up I added my charm because I hate extra loops were they can be avoided. I opened up the top loop slightly and added a silver dangly earring back and re-sealed the loop!</p><p> </p><p>I loved making a set with a theme and I know I'll do it more often! I hope you like my project and be sure to check out the Totally Beads Facebook page were from the 1st of April you can vote on your favourite piece! </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-vpLXipot_-A/UzIbgtJ-D9I/AAAAAAAAAD0/uqb8Iwwv1Ps/s960/Photo%25252024%252520Mar%2525202014%25252022%25253A55.jpg" target="_blank" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-vpLXipot_-A/UzIbgtJ-D9I/AAAAAAAAAD0/uqb8Iwwv1Ps/s500/Photo%25252024%252520Mar%2525202014%25252022%25253A55.jpg" id="blogsy-1395792792507.2185" class="aligncenter" alt="" width="500" height="375"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-6VQSjfrzoRI/UzIbi3UyMbI/AAAAAAAAAD8/YzDTkDX1H1o/s960/Photo%25252024%252520Mar%2525202014%25252022%25253A59.jpg" target="_blank" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-6VQSjfrzoRI/UzIbi3UyMbI/AAAAAAAAAD8/YzDTkDX1H1o/s500/Photo%25252024%252520Mar%2525202014%25252022%25253A59.jpg" id="blogsy-1395792792471.3088" class="aligncenter" alt="" width="500" height="375"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-RdBUxMtDDaw/UzIblLUUEpI/AAAAAAAAAEE/fYghSw9lAFU/s960/Photo%25252024%252520Mar%2525202014%25252022%25253A55.jpg" target="_blank" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-RdBUxMtDDaw/UzIblLUUEpI/AAAAAAAAAEE/fYghSw9lAFU/s500/Photo%25252024%252520Mar%2525202014%25252022%25253A55.jpg" id="blogsy-1395792792476.2268" class="aligncenter" width="500" height="375" alt=""></a></div><p> Good Luck to anybody who has entered!</p><p> </p><div style="text-align: right; font-size: small; clear: both;" id="blogsy_footer"><a href="http://blogsyapp.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://blogsyapp.com/images/blogsy_footer_icon.png" alt="Posted with Blogsy" style="vertical-align: middle; margin-right: 5px;" width="20" height="20" />Posted with Blogsy</a></div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10807821053054366695noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3052699369870698138.post-15834477609734849912014-03-04T10:13:00.000-08:002014-03-04T10:13:04.134-08:00Something Sweet Magazine Project <p> The new(ish) magazine series <a href="http://somethingsweetcollection.co.uk/" target="_blank" title="">Something Sweet</a> is a great weekly mag that gives you all the info you need to make really easy and effective candy!

<p style="text-align: center;">There's a new theme started over on the Claritystamp Challenge Blog, and I'm excited to say I'm now on the challenge design team!!!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The theme of the new challenge is</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Love and Romance</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Here is my project.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"> It's a chocolate box tag.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I painted with Gesso, then added a layer of crackle glaze followed by lilac paint.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The Claritystamp I used is the Arty Heart, I stamped and white embossed onto pink card, then cut it out and stuck it down.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> </p>
