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.
ReplyDeleteI 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!!
ReplyDeleteLove what you've done with these :):)
ReplyDeletethanks 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!
ReplyDeleteI did only a couple of make-n-takes at CHA but this was my favorite! I've actually worn it a lot!
