Bead Soup Swap & Create

Lori Anderson hostess the best Bead Soup Swap & Create online gather. So, when I seen she was hosting another one…I couldn’t help but jump on board. Thanks, Lori

Lori paired me up with mega talented Bobbie Rafferty of beadsong jewelry . To say, I felt a little out of my league after drooling on Bobbie’s blog and Instagram is an understatement. Then, I received the soup that Bobbie sent…..again way way out of my league….and to top it off Bobbie was so generous that she sent two focus beads. Oh how to choose…but I took some deep breaths and got to work.

Here is what, I came up with:

Necklace/Earring set #1

Healed Caterpillar

Since, the focal pendant was so big and absolutely gorgeous, I wanted to make it the true center piece and a simple pair of earrings 😉

Necklace/Earring Set #2

Landscape Songs

Bobbie beaded that bead…eeekkk ….it’s so gorgeous! She is so talented. I was so excited to create a necklace with it. As, you can see I like a long necklace.

I hope you have enjoyed my projects. I can’t wait to see what Bobbie and the rest of the group did. Be sure to check out everyones project out! List is below.

InkyStamper- Paper Clip box and Owl Stamp Set

Good Thanksgiving Morning!

One of my favorite things about Thanksgiving is the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade! Every year since I can remember I have watched the Parade while cutting snowflakes and making ornaments. This year is no different, one thing a pandemic can’t change.

Wishing you all a very Happy Thanksgiving! Hope your day is filled with lots of food, football, and fun! I know we have a crazy 8’s tournament planned!

Owl- InkyStamper

Good morning everyone….. Today, I wanted to show you this cute little Fall/Thanksgiving place card holder using the Owl set and Praying Mantis Set from InkyStamper. Very simple and fun to make and will look adorable on your table.

TIP: Lifesavers you can get at the dollar store/dollar tree 3 packages for a buck!
Just slit a small opening in your brown log (which was stamped with the log slice from the praying mantis set then just cut a piece clear card panel and fold it into a T. Put it though the slit opening and attach your owl (colored or decorated one on one side and just the cut out of the owl on the back side and then decorate.

Hope you enjoyed my OWL lifesaver place card holder. If you have any questions, let me know! I would be happy to answer them.

See ya soon,

Kim

Ant….InkyStamper

Good Morning,

I’m here on this fine, Monday morning with a little ant inspiration.

Since, today is National Watermelon Day! I thought no better image to use then InkyStamper’s Ant to celebrate. We all know that ants and watermelon go hand in hand.

One fun thing, I did was stamp on the ribbon. Yes, you read that right. You can stamp on ribbon! I used a double sided satin ribbon and Nuvo ink. But Stazon would have given me a clearer image. If you want to stamp on ribbon ….you are going to have to experiment with different ribbons and inks. Trust me it will be worth it! Just look at these results.

Thanks for stopping in…enjoy National Watermelon Day!

One little word 2020

I picked my #olw for 2020! Have you? Or do you do a resolution.

….Perspective….

I want to see things this year in a different perspective. Have more awareness of how others see things. Discover things from different angles. Realize what’s important to worry about and what’s not. What to focus on. Remembering to be true to myself.

This morning, I spend time focusing on trying something new and having the perspective to know that it’s not perfect…heck it’s doesn’t even line up. BUT…I enjoyed the process…my soul was happy.

Here’s to a happy and health 2020.

Hugs,

Hello …..

Welcome to the Inkystamper blog hop! Wasn’t Chelsea’s project stinking adorable!!!

I’m here to show you the new orb die!!!

This die makes it so fun, fast, and easy to make ornaments.

Supplies: Inkystamper orb die, card stock, and red line tape. Optional: fishing line, stamps, marker, and stickers.

I thought it would be fun to make personalize ones for each member of my family.

I used the swirl stamp from dragonfly set one the first one for my husband.

This next one, I used the new Chicken set to make it look like a soccer ball for my son Ben.

I used the dragonfly set again on the orb ornament for my son Sam.

Seriously, these orbs are super easy and addicting to make.

Look, how adorable they look on a tree!
