  1. WOW Carol. You have been busy creating such works of art. I love that beaded effect on the flowers. Those diamond pearls work great. The colors all work great together. You have to let us all know how you did that. I've only done beads with sticky tape? =^..^=

  4. Those sunflowers are just awesome. You really know how to make those faces pop. I've had better days than when I've used micro beads..if you know what I mean. They kind of got out of my control a time or two. Ha I love them and how you used them is such a great addition. Beautiful work, Carol.

  6. OMgosh this is tooo SWEET!!! I love your card :) Love the glitz on the sunflowers, they are way tooo cute!! Another beauty hun!!!

    Ooo as for the sewing in home ec my daughter and son both took it in the past, but it could be the school, so you havent been under any rocks lately...hehehehehehehehe :) OMgosh I just had to say that...LOL My youngest took sewing last year and loved it. So im thinking it might just be the schools out there, its hard to say, but yeah sewing class has been around for YEARS, I hope they dont do away with it, that would be sad.

    You will have to post the purses they make on your blog, I would love to see them :) I bet they turn out cute!!! :)

    Hope you have a lovely day :)
