And she sent me some incredible laces from France....eeee!! Thank you Lesley, you are a dear sweet friend! Lesley has a blog also, but is taking a break, so I will redirect you when she comes back!
The collection below is a boatload of goodies from my sweet friend from B.C.....Denise! Denise has been running a fabulous atc swap on her blog, and you cannot believe how incredible she is!

THE RAVEN
I wanted to share some new journal art work, and some new jewelry work. I have to apologize, because I have been completely lousy at blogging lately, and have been spending time on myself. Again, some medical issues going on, but I am trying my best now to catch up with everyone.
Without all of you I could not create the things that make me feel better, so please know I always appreciate you all so much, and am thinking of all of you whether I am here or not.
Blog friends are the best!

DREAMER
I have been busy creating jewelry, in between the art, and it has been flowing and FUN! I made this new necklace called DREAMER....I imagine sailing on this vintage ship, oh....what a dream of mine! The earrings are called MOROCCO, the vibrant rich, and spicy colors have me really so happy for the warm temps we are having, and again a dream of a foreign land.
Hope you are all enjoying your weekend......hope you are dreaming!
I am offering 20% off in my shop this weekend.....just enter code 20WEEKEND to save!

NEW EARRINGS, NEW ART
I seem to enjoy ping ponging back and forth between making jewelry and making art.....I like it...and I think it works for me. I often do both simultaneously , and one somehow feeds off of the other. They may not resemble each other physically, but in my mind there is a connection, and I am thankful. I feel fortunate to be able to express myself in many mediums.

BUTTON SWAP
Cindy of Sweet Bead Studio hosted a Button Swap that I just had to take part in...being I love my vintage buttons so much! I was paired up with Erin Seigel, and she sent me some really beautiful vintage metal buttons, and mother of pearl. I chose to use the metal buttons, and combined them with vintage MOP beads, vintage rhinestone buttons from my stash, and a vintage religious medal. I love to wear these close to me, so this is something special I can wear all the time.
Please visit all of the other participants to see there fab creations! Thanks much to Cindy for all her work in this project, and special thanks to Erin for treating me to such beauties!
Kim Roberts and Partner unable to participate at this time.
