Welcome back for another fun challenge in The Shabby Tea Room! A few weeks ago, I found this cool glass bead bracelet in an Etsy shop called Essex Glass and immediately thought it would be PERFECT for an inspiration challenge in TSTR:
So this week's challenge is this: Using this picture as your inspiration, create a project with metal somewhere on it. Now, it could be a brad or eyelet, it could be metallic paper, metallic embossing powder, metal cord...the possibilities are endless. And feel free to get creative with your metal - a pop can tab would fit the bill. :)
This week's sponsor in the Tea Room is Some Odd Girl and do they ever have some cute digi stamps! And for all you STR peeps, they have a discount on your purchase this week - what could be better than that?
I found this new-to-me challenge a few weeks ago but haven't been able to play along - until now. The Bling Sketch Challenge over at Annabelle Stamps Blog is a sketch with a {twist}... use the sketch AND some bling! HELLO?? Right up my alley! I liked the simplicity of this sketch and it fit my "Fairy Mae" image perfectly:
Recipe - Stamps: Fairy Mae (Some Odd Girl), Beautiful Kindness (Verve) Ink: Early Espresso Paper: Blushing Bride, Poppy Parade, Whisper White Accessories: Paper piercer, rhinestone brads, striped grosgrain ribbon, Copics, silver metallic cord, button, Spica atyou Glitter pens
I colored her with my Copics and used my glitter pens for her wings...they are so sparkly:
