I seem to be in earring mode at the moment. I made these last night, I used gorgeous little blue/green artisan lampwork beads made by Rob Johnson and tiny metal saucer beads. They swing beautifully inside these hoops, I can’t believe I got the spacing right first time! These are available on my website.
I love the sketches on Poetic Artistry each Monday so I’m pleased to see Julee has set up a brand new Mojo Monday challenge blog! Here’s my card, using the gorgeous LOTV fairy stamp and backing paper that my fabulous friend Sue sent me for Christmas. Thanks Sue!

Happy new year! Brr, it’s bitterly cold here, we even had a bit of snow this afternoon. I love the snow but we don’t get very much of it these days so it’s always lovely when we get a flurry, even if it’s just for 5 minutes like today! I’ve been busy making new jewellery this week, these are already on my website and there’s lots more to come.
I love the beads I used for these earrings! Depending on which way the light catches them, they look clear or deep topaz and teamed with Swarovski crystals I think they look fab with gold.
Purple and green is always a gorgeous colour combination and looks lovely with antique gold.
This is a gorgeous bead handmade by Anna Richard of Beads on Toast, I thought it would look lovely on it’s own as a focal pendant.

This mini book thong will certainly brighten up anyone’s reading! I’ve used a gorgeous artisan glass lampwork bead on one end and on the other a cluster of Swarovski crystals in a myriad of colours.
