Ok...I got the message loud & clear that lots of you have the swivels, but haven't used them yet.
Here's a few ideas to get you started...
For those of you taking my "Use Your Scraps Fragments Journal" class...you can use the swivels to personalize your journal. USE those charms & trinkets you've been hoarding. Get them out & ENJOY them...don't leave them sitting in a drawer.
I used a swivel to "label" a piece of art I made for Maya Road's booth @ CHA.
And again...I used one with a Memory Frame from Ranger, to jazz up my CHA demo tags. If you haven't played with the Memory frames yet...they are REALLY fun. Hmmm...might be an idea for a post some day...
And I saved THE BEST for last.
These were designed by KAREN MORIKAWA (aka keychain) and were the make & takes for the Advantus booth @ CHA this summer. These are to die for cool!!!
Karen is a jewelry geuius. She wears THE COOLEST watch...with a band that she made from Idea-ology bits & pieces. Hmmm...maybe she'll send me a photo & I'll show you!
Take a look @ what she designed...
So there you have it...4 ideas to jump start your creativity. Just get the swivels out & PLAY!
Now about all those embossing folders...........
I ended up with the "Big Kick" machine. I went with the intention of getting the Cuttlebug...but the cute gals talked me into buying the Big Kick... I tried it...I LIKE IT!! I also got a few big dies to cut grungeboard...yep...the dies are...
flowers...
I swear I'm addicted!
Come back tomorrow...
Debby Lewis will be the "guest artist"... with a really fun layout.
Thanks for stopping by!

Wendy...I'm counting the days until you come to SC! I'm going to be in heaven for two days taking your classes.
I love KAREN MORIKAWA work. She allowed me to make two necklaces at CHA: one for me and one for my son. He loves and thinks it makes him very cool.
Thank you for being such a blessing.
LOVE those ideas!! Now I just want to get home and use my swivel things! AND my keys! Holy cow those are just awesome examples!! Thanks for sharing those!!
Love what you've done with these :):)
thanks for the ideas.... I'll have to stop hoarding my Tim stuff now! Hope you can get a picture of the watch... I'd love to see it!!! Enjoy your CB folder... Can't wait to see what you come up with!
I did only a couple of make-n-takes at CHA but this was my favorite! I've actually worn it a lot!
The watch is to die for!!! LOVE IT!
