Craft fair haul

I attended the Perth Quilt and Craft fair today and came away with a good stash at great prices.
My two faves of the day were Beads N Crystals and KimoYes.

Have some exciting plans for the black and silver button things!
Too bad its the final few weeks of classes at university and I have two assignments due :(

New work :)





Some of my latest designs. All made using the cabezel molds by Wendy from Shades of Clay. The b/w one is made using Donna Kato's "brain cane" from her tutorial Have a Heart available at Craft Edu
The blue are made using the wonderful technique, mokume gane!

Thanks

Experimenting with Foils and Ink




I haven't posted for a while, but was feeling inspired today so thought I'd share some things I made a few weeks ago. I had a number of silver bezel jewellery pieces lying around and wanted to make a matching set using a technique I hadn't tried before.

This is using Lisa Pavelka foils, stamped with permanent black ink with an acrylic stamp.

I'd be interested in putting together a tutorial if people were interested. 

I'm really happy with how this turned out.
