 My
Captured Beads Technique is on the Pennywise Arts
Website! Woo hoo! Check it out here:
http://www.pennywisearts.com/capturedbeads.html
This is a really fun and easy technique!
I plan on making a lot more cards like this in the future!
Products: See D's Stamp Set; Black
StazOn Ink; Bird Paper Punch; Pennywise Arts Picture Windows;
Pennywise Arts Micro Beads; Sparkle Black paper, Bazzill Pink
cardstock, and 140 lb White Cardstock.
The Picture Windows and Micro Beads can
be purchased at

I am proud to say that
this technique was
featured in the Technique Junkies Newsletter! Woo hoo! It is always a thrill for me to see my
own name in print!
I got some wonderful
vintage label images today for altered art, scrapbooking,
and card making! I just have to share, so click [HERE]
for a free Vintage Label Collage sheet that I put together!
I made my "Bird" ATC's
for a swap. I am happy with how they turned out. I
stamped the bird image with Black StazOn then I colored it in with
chalks. I sprayed the images with Fixatif and then cut them
out.
I stamped the
background with distress ink and then used green quilling paper to
make the branches. I layered it on bronze cardstock and then
onto green faux parchment paper. I punched the flowers out
of pink shimmer cardstock.

One of my
original techniques,
Bed of Beads Stamping
Please visit Pennywise Arts for instructions:

I have been using
Pennywise Arts micro beads since 2004, so I really don't know
why it took me so long to think up this technique! I
regularly use micro beads in just about every piece of art I
create and this is just another fun way to incorporate them.
They really become the focal point with this technique.

I worked on some cards. I created a few Asian themed cards. I also
added some collage style cards to this website. I need to
start working on Thank You cards and more Birthday cards. The
following cards (and more!) can be seen [HERE]
