Simply Charming


Hello, my friends!

It's been a while, hasn't it?! I've been away from home for a while with my family...my poor husband has had to return home to work, but the girls and I are still having a wonderful time with family...


I just wanted to pop in and share with you a some things I made the other night--had to sneak in a LITTLE crafting while I'm here!


A few sweet little charms made with Crafty Secrets' brand new, VERY soon-to-be-available "Mini-Vintage" Creative Scraps...


...you're so going to LOVE creating with these!!!

Just a few necklaces made for sisters, Mom...and myself, of course!  Just some found charms, a bit of Platinum Stickles, a clear epoxy tile fitting perfectly on top of the whole thing...


...tie it up with a bit of luscious seam binding, and that's about it!




That's it for today...but I'll be back soon with more to share & just to say hello!  Hope you're all enjoying a wonderfully charming summer filled with fun, family & relaxation...

Julie

    Julie,
    These are adorable and you did a beautiful job. I can't wait for the scraps to come out. I love making resin charms and these are about the cutest pictures I have seen! Nice job! We are home now, too. Jud is very tired from his Tuesday chemo. His sister just got here. She will be here until Tuesday.
    Sending hugs,
    Suz

    YOU are a true artist/crafter, if even while on vacation, you are busy at work.

    too cute. I don't even want to know how to make them as my list of current addictions is way too long (currently learning to crochet is using up the remaining brain cells the children have left me with!)
