Cassiopeia Glamour Silver Earrings

These earrings are made of sterling silver, silver coated beads and Swarovski beads.
The middle motif is a very special bead, with tiny sparks all over it. It's the reason I named this model Cassiopeia, as it reminds me of the stars glowing and sparkling in the dark. Quite the same, these earrings sparkle and shine with every movement, adding glamour, chic and elegance to your look.
Of course, they can be made in any color combination.
The combination of light green and purple Swarovski beads with silver isn't a typical color combo of mine, but I chose it especially for a lady who likes these colors.
I hope she'll enjoy wearing them.

My Turquoise Octopus Earrings

These are handmade earrings, designed for a very special lady.
There are about 300 Swarovski beads in it, and more other beads. I think you simply can't ignore them - they make your look.

I named them Octopus because they remind me of the ocean, with their color and movement.
These earrings are not for pierced ears (they have clips). They are hanging and moving with every movement of your head, so they sparkle all the time.
I can't take my eyes off them. How about you?

Style And Fashion - Knitted Necklaces

I was often asked how to wear a knitted necklace.
Well, these photos demonstrate several ways of wearing them.
Every knitted necklace is uniquely hand-made with dozens of different beads: Swarovski beads, glass beads, metal beads, Swarovski pearls and many others.
I've been collecting these beads from all over the world.
They were carefully selected by me to combine into beautiful necklaces in coordinating, bright colors.
I make them in various color combinations, to match all moods and preferences.
Each necklace has a matching pair of hanging earrings (for pierced ears), in coordinating colors.

And I Love You So...

I made my DH a waterfall card with LOVE spread all over it.
I used textured black CS, textured red CS, Basic Grey Sugar Rush papers,
and heart shaped embellishments: an eyelet, brads, die cuts and glass beads.
You can see the card's front closed, then pulled open, and from its side.

Have a great day!

It's a piece of cake... for my birthday!

Tomorrow, April 1st, is my birthday. Seriously!
Please spare me the jokes, I've heard them all.

And here's my birthday cake - on a card I made for the Sweet 16 challenge at the Michael Strong Yahoo group.
It's a chocolate cake with whipped cream on top, chocolate decorations and pink candies. Yummy.

I used a textured light brown CS, a pearly textured pink CS, a dark brown CS,
white embossing powder, brown ink, my new Cloisonné Fan and Cloisonné Paisley MSRS,
pink pearls and a central decoration made of brown beads and sequins.

The Cloisonné Fan was stamped and heat embossed 4 times, then halved and glued, slice by slice, with 3D glue to add dimension.
The Cloisonné Paisley was stamped with brown ink and was also glued with 3D glue to add extra dimension.

Now I'm going to bake a delicious chocolate cake for my birthday - a real one :-)
