Summer pin cushion swap and stick pins

I joined a summer pin cushion swap at the cmb, we were to use something
other than a tea cup and have a summer/beach theme. Also we were to make
4 stick pins for our partner. This is what I came up with...my container is brass
and I used a gorgeous blue satin cover for the pin cushion. Along the edges are
tiny sea shells and at the end a profusion of sea shells, rocks, pearls, a button,
and flowers. I also made a fishnet off the side with a darling glass sea horse charm hanging from it. I love the way this turned out, hope you will too!
Thanks for stopping by......... Kathy

Challenge Card

Just stopped by to share this little card I made for a challenge
at CMB. The challenge was to use fruit, green and a stamped image.
Hope you like it! I used a Sara Kay stamp and a thankyou sentiment.

Last set of TH dress form tags....angel

Hi Ladies,
Just thought I'd share my most recent crafting
project. This is a set of TH dress form tags made
for the CMB tag swap. I used the Mariposa line for
the background. You aven't lived until you have
tried gluing feathers, kinda like getting tar and
feathered fingers, LOL. Hope you like them
Kathy

My first match box swap

Hello,
I signed up for my first matchbox swap at the CMB
recently, I have seen these before and always wanted
to try working on these adorable little boxes. Besides
decorating the matchbox itself we were to make handmade
flowers, 3 stickpins and also a chunky charm. Here is
what I have created for my partner, Lana. I used the
beautiful Mariposa card stack, pearls, blue bling and recollections
mini roses. I accented two butterflies with glossy accents.
Thanks for looking.
