This is my newest paper quilling creation. Each koi has aprox. 30 quilled pcs. The waterlily is made from Peach colored cardstock that was cut and shaped by hand.The lily pads have faux water droplets on them which were a last minute addition that I'm glad I added(it was missing something without them).This is available in my shop(see profile for a link).There is one already in there that has a different color theme.
Thanks for looking.
Created with fd's Flickr Toys.
I made all three on separate ribbons. Just in case she wanted to put them in 3 different places. They each have 100% dried organic lavender.
I've been a busy little Bee. This is the 4th of 6 shadowbox frames that I've completed in the past few months.I didn't put this on Flickr right away because it was a gift for my niece and I didn't want her or her mom(my sister-n-law) to see it. Olyvia just turned 5 years old and is a big fan of Tinkerbell.This took about 2 1/2 weeks to complete(Tinkerbell took a lot of time
to complete...maybe 5-6 days).This was framed in a 2" deep shadowbox frame that I painted White.
Yuki approves of the pretty quilt! She didn't want to get off it. Guess I'll make her one of her very own next time. :)
Polymer clay canes combined over a polymer clay base and sealed with Clear Liquid Polyclay. Inside of the bracelet is impressed and colored with Inka Gold Guilders Paste and sanded smooth.
matte stephens inspired . these are actually 2 seperate ornaments .I like the bubble but it took forever to sew . You probably realize by now that I hate glue. (not a healthy substance and I can't afford to get glue gun burns)
I made this set for my nieces 7th birthday(May 2008).The coffee percolator and cups have a coffee scent and the cookies really smell like cookies.
They smell soooo good! M-M-M
Note: I forgot to photograph a 3rd cookie that I made for this set.It had white frosting and sprinkles made from glass beads. OOPS!
iLio (means dog in Hawaiian),is a vibrant colored felt puppy.He is a true romantic and believes in love at first sight.When he's really feeling romantic you'll hear him gently strumming his ukulele while humming a sweet song.
He has big black and brown safety eyes and a black safety nose.His sewn on flowers,stars,leaves and palm trees match his tropical tie-dyed felt muzzle. iLio(pronounced ee-lee-you) is completely handsewn.All of his details on his forehead and down his back and tail were individually sewn on.His inner ears,tongue,cheeks and front paw pads are the same shade of bright pink. There are more pics of him(his backview is just as detailed) in my photostream. He will be up for "adoption,see my profile for a link:o)

I finally got a picture of the 20 keychains that were made over the summer.These are for an order and I wanted a record of all the varieties that I've made.Come to think of it I think I made a whole lot more than this...maybe closer to 40.I've been stapling a business card to them and giving them out as a little incentive to view my etsy shop(I know,shameless promotion).Any ways these are sooo fun to make and even though Summer is over...I'm still making them.:o)
