Well - I redid my bird tiles - I just did not like the shiney charm hanging down from them - and I did not like the silver nests with the darkish slip art - so I made some nests with black wire - I think these look much better.  Once I trim the little spun ends they will be ready to send in for my swap.  Enjoy

Yes - more charms - I can't seem to stop making them - you know how I get - - I am sure I will move onto something else soon.  The I am pretty sure I will use these charms for one set for the swap - not sure on the 2nd set yet - the bird nest that is hanging from the bottom of the charms were hollow back - I did not like that - I punched a piece of pattern paper, smashed it into the back - adhered with diamond glaze - then filled the back with diamond glaze.  After it dried I colored with alcohol inks on the front just to give it some color.  I love this clip art from Digital Collage Sheets - I love the viewfinder look of them.  Then I took some of the Halloween tiles I had made the other day and added them to a Choski pin - and tied some halloween ribbon on it.  And lastly - I had one more scrabble tile I did which as of an egg - for that one I made a nest with some beads to hang down from it.   I am not sure if it will be too big for a charm bracelet - but I am sure I will find a use for it.  Enjoy

Well - I have been working on some charms for my upcoming charm swap with the Sum of All ATC's Yahoo Group - now I don't know if I will use these or not - but I am just going to make a bunch of charms and then select - I have 16 to submit - 2 groups of 8 and the 2 groups should be different.  It is pretty obvious what these are made of - bottle caps and mini domino's.  Enjoy.

Well - I know it has been a bit since I have posted - I am working on charms for a swam - will be making 16 charms and we will get a bracelet back with 16 charms - pretty cool and I have made so many more than I need so will have to decide which ones I want to swap out.  And I had to finish my Holiday ATC Swap for Red Lead - I can't say I am happy - why oh why did I decide to do Halloween when I don't do Halloween - and I misunderstood the directions and thought I could only use the new bits and pieces - and not any of the other images they have - oh well - It is still fun and I will send in.  Here you go



And I decided I would start thinking about what I will do for Christmas cards this year - here is one idea - obviously I would but on a card  - and would wording - but just playing around right now.
