Math is Hard

I have two prints from Etsy artists Noosed Kitty and Lisa Hurwitz, that were odd dimensions so I couldn't buy conventional mats for them and I really didn't want to pay to have them framed. So I did a good ole diy project of course! Oy, me and measurements are not friends. I don't know what it is but I swear I must have wasted sheets of paper and they are still a little "off", I just consider the offness goes with the quirky prints. Yea that's it.





I may splurge on professional framing next time just to avoid the headache :-)

Martha Stewart Kit

I found these little felt flower kits marked down at Walmart for just a couple of bucks, so I snagged them up to play around with them. Quite a bit of fun, for the embellishments I used beads and glitter from my stash as I wasn't too impressed with the ones found in the kit. The kit also contained the barrettes, clips, bobby pins and ring base to attach the flowers to. I'm hoping to give them away to some friends who have little girls, I think they'd be perfect.

Celebrate the Final Season of Lost

With a Dharma Initiative pendant! I currently have The Swan, The Looking Glass and a Dharma logo pendant made, but am happy to make any of the other logos into a pendant for you.

I'm so sad to see Lost end, it's the smartest tv show I've watched in years. I wanted to create a keepsake for my fellow fans out there to enjoy.

Design Your Own Calendar

I bought a few of these kits as Christmas presents, and *duh* had to get one for myself. This kit was Basic Grey I believe and SO much fun. The kits come with all the embellishments, but I added a bit more from my personal stash. So basically all you need is to print out your own photos, grab a glue stick and get to crafting.










I think this one may be my favorite. I don't know what is it about your pet in a crown, but I love it!







Grant from Ghosthunters! So bummed Jason wasn't there too.

Housewives Tarot

I just stumbled across this adorably cute site whilst searching the interwebs for vintage tarot cards. I love that you find one thing when you are searching for something else.

Head over to the site Housewives Tarot for a few recipes, desktop wallpapers and free tarot readings with an ironic touch.



Tutorial


I have received so many questions regarding my method I use for image transferring to polymer clay, I decided to offer a tutorial for sale in my Etsy shop. You can learn how to create your own keepsakes with pendants, magnets, earrings, rings and any other idea you may have for a polymer clay creation.

The tutorial contains the list of materials needed, step by step instructions, hints I have learned from working with polymer clay for 6 years, as well as color photographs of the process. The tutorial will be emailed to you in a PDF file, if you'd prefer it in a DOC format, please let me know and I'll be happy to accommodate you. I'll also be available by email to assist with any questions you may have.
