So sorry that I've been MIA lately!!!
I promise things will be back to normal at the end of the month, and I'll tell you all about what is going on in my life then!!!
Several weeks ago, I hosted a Bookmark Swap. There were 10 of us: Chelsea Comer, Kim Sears, Shirley Hotop, Michelle Bartnett, Amanda Mertz, Caryl Pawlusiak, KellyRae Cooper, Maria Matter, Kristie Larsen, and me. These ladies are so talented! I am always amazed after receiving a swap - there are never two identical, or even close! Anyway, in my humble opinion, they are fabulous, but I will let you judge for yourselves!
By Kim Sears (magnetic - pretty cool, huh??? and SO beautiful!)
By Shirley Hotop (check it out!!! Love the 'leather' chair!)
By Michelle Bartnett (Gorgeous!!! I think she needs to come paint pretty things on my walls!)
By Maria Matter (Lovin' those gorgeous butterflies - her kiddo's helped with the glitter!)
By Kristie Larsen (Absolutely gorgeous, and each of the 10 were different!)
By KellyRae Cooper (OMG, talk about some fussy cutting and paper piecing! Wowzers!)
By Chelsea Comer (OMG! Look at the little googly eyes! CA-UTENESS!!!)
By Caryl Pawlusiak (Enlarge and look at the fabulous shadow stamping in the background...AND, the ribbon is stitched at the top!)
By Amanda Mertz (This gorgeous bookmark has handcrafted flowers, and is so elegant! It's even prettier in real life!)
Last is mine. Very simple, stamps from Stampland, Chicago, heat embossed with black EP, and she's colored with Copics.
Have a great week - thanks so much for stopping by! Check back on Thursday for some blog candy!!! Woo hoo!!!
Hugs and blessings,
Patti J.
