Simply Adorned WorkshopGet compliments on your jewelry every day! With Simply Adorned jewelry, the necklace and bracelet (see next page) are attractive on their own. But with your hand made inserts, your creativity adds the beauty and the colors. You can have a new look for your jewelry every day to match the season or your outfit, without ever having to buy another necklace or bracelet!
Even if you can't draw a stick figure, by using gorgeous Stampin' Up! stamps you can create the images you like most.
Let's get together and have a workshop! I'll show you how to make jewelry-worthy tiny pieces of art. You'll learn the Emboss Resist technique (used on all the samples here), which is so impressive and yet so easy. The workshop is free, and you and all your friends will go home with 6 inserts each for your necklaces.
The only thing more fun than new jewelry is... friends, food, crafts AND new jewelry! Call me to book your workshop.
Three "Scrap Cards"
For those of us who don't have the time to scrapbook, there is now something easier - scrap cards!
Send one in the mail and make somebody's day, use one as a Christmas card design, and keep your favorite one on your desk. All three of these designs are perfect to display.
Come to my class on Sept. 25th and make one of each of the card designs shown here. We will assemble and decorate these cards, you can add your own photos later. You will also receive instructions so you can make more of these cards at home.
Wow your long-distance family and friends by sending them the best greeting card they've ever received. Class fee is only $9.00. Please sign up by Sept. 16th. Call or email me to reserve your spot.

Simply Adorned Bracelet ClubI love wearing personalized jewelry - with charms that hold pictures of my boys, colors that match my clothes, and images that match my style. Charm bracelets are very fashionable right now, but many of them are out-of-this-world expensive! Luckily, with Simply Adorned bracelets you can have the best of everything: Personalized charms, and for an affordable price.
To add even more fun, sign up for my Simply Adorned bracelet club! We will meet 3 times, and each time I will show you another technique for decorating these tiny charms. We will play with glitter, embossing, tiny punches, pearls and rhinestones. I will even show you how to customize your favorite photos to fit.
Bonus: When you pay for each bracelet installment on time, I will give you a free Filigree brad (the flower charms in the photo) to add to your bracelet as a bangle.
Buy the entire bracelet for only $51.35 (total includes tax and shipping), or pay in three installments.
Join the club and we'll meet on September 16th, October 14th, and November 18th at 6:30pm at my house. Are those bad dates for you? Start your own club, on your own schedule, with 3 or more of your friends! (4 person minimum.) Call me or email me for more information.
