No time....

For a {real} post. So here is a quick shot of something cool.

This is a butterfly collage, card and necklace I made for a birthday gift this weekend. The collage will be framed. The chipboard butterflies are K&Co, mixed with a variety of Basic Grey stickers, CTMH paper and an Hero Arts woodgrain stamp. Enjoy!

A birthday gift

Okay, when it comes to birthdays, sometimes I like to go all out and make a card, a gift bag and a gift that match!

My cousin's daughter had a birthday this month and she is actually one of my students too! It is a fact that she loves owls as much as I do so I decided to make her an owl necklace.



I thought it would be cool if we both had matching necklaces so I made us both the same one.



I also made myself some earrings (her ears are not pierced!).


Here is the matching card and gift box for the present!

Blue Sun Emporium @ Etsy

I just love buying things on Etsy....Every month, I take an hour or two to browse the treasures of handmade things. I have gotten some neat stuff and some beautiful artwork. Recently, I learned that a friend from college has a shop Blue Sun Emporium. She sells the most wonderful Victorian modern jewelry. I ordered a few things on Friday, and they arrived today!!






If you love what you see, you should totally check out her shop...I [heart] many things....Here is my newest treasure...an APPLE locket and flower earrings....sooo awesome! Thanks Leandra!! I love it!!!
