Altered: Dragonfly pendant

Pendant created with Styled Silver hodgepodge hardware (SU) and Heidi Swapp chandelier crystals.

WW: In a dream

This pendant I created after receiving this month's edition of the Stampin Up business magazine. It is made with the hodgepodge hardware styled silver square holders. I am amazed I had not thought of doing this before. They are great for personalized gifts.

EXTRA! EXTRA! - Spring is Here!!!

I just received the new Stampin Up Spring-Summer 2009 catalogs...... I am in LOVE with all the new goodies! LOL.... MORE photos to come

Card: True friendships...

Favorite: Tropical Kitty

As a by-product of holiday shopping for my niece I fell in love with this tanned HELLO KITTY doll at the Sanrio store. It is so very at home in my bedroom.

WW: Owl of a birthday

For the first wonderful wednesday of the year, I decided to create something extra special. This card showcases the new designer hardware (HOORAY) and the Raspberry Tart designer series paper offered by Stampin Up. Another of my favorite things to use are Heidi Swapp's silhouette stickers. They look SO striking on this black fold over black card by POSH limited. I have been a huge Dee Gruenig fan ever since I saw her cheery segment on the Carol Duvall show.
