Distress Stains...

as I said in my last post I fancied getting some more distress stains, I got them from CraftObsessions.co.uk

I like getting things from David and Brenda as they are always good value and good service too.
I have been thinking about getting some beads and findings as the jewellery side of crafting has always interested me.... Then my dearest daughter voiced a desire to try making some too... So Mr Wonderful bought a selection of beads and findings from ebay and Tessa made some shamballa bracelets and even her brothers liked them so she made them one each too!!  I haven't had a chance to play with them til last night as Tessa squirrelled them away in her room... anyway I bagged some beads that I liked the look of and this is what I made....(The chain is a silver small belcher chain link that I have had in my jewellery box for ages).

It's been a fair while since I've done any paper-crafting so i'm gonna try and do my best over the next few days...:D... And the kids go back to school on Sept 4th so i'll get more time to do this uninterrupted!

Thanks for dropping by and having a look at my blog
