Assorted designs

This card sold awhile ago but I came across a photo of it while updating some picture files.  I always like it.  I used ripped mulberry paper and little paper flowers.  The tag says 'kick up your heels' and in the corner is embellished with a gold victorian shoe. 


Love the saying on this one.  :)


I had a raincheck for Bazzill paper at one of our local craft stores.  It finally came in, so I can get back to making box envelopes for my handmade greeting cards.  I don't pair one up with every card I make, but as long as I can get this paper at a reasonable price I do prefer them to flat envelopes. 


This set was originally part of an order that didn't end up going through.  Recently, I offered to make a donation for a friend of a friend who is going thru treatment for cancer.  She's choosing some alternative therapies for part of her recovery, and since medical insurance generally does not cover those things family and friends are having a benefit for her.   So this set will soon have a new home!  I restrung it to make a bit longer and put a different toggle on to change it up some.    


If I wore earrings I would sooooo wear these!  Whether you call them rainbow or chakra earrings they are COLORFUL!


SALVATION earrings
We were dead in our sins (black)
Until Christ shed his blood (red)
Which washes us white as snow (clear)
Now we have the eternal (green)
The Holy Spirit dwells within us (blue)
As a sign that we will one day
Be in Heaven with the streets paved in gold (gold)


These have been popular lately.  We have a great team in Philadelphia!  I have to deliver a pair this morning, someone is coming over today to pick up 4 pairs and few pairs are being considered.   I have a couple assorted designs.


Abalone beads are very pretty.  They have such a nice range of colors to them and go with lots of crystal accents and charms. 

Have a happy Friday and wonderful weekend!
