The Saga Continues

Here are my latest efforts in the Bird Bead series, good but still working on the color. I wanted to try a little darker background than the original beads, but think the next ones I make will be with much lighter backgrounds. Overall, I'm pleased with these, but I've still got some ideas I want to try. I think I'm going to wait for my new embossing powders to arrive, though. Hopefully, they will be here by the weekend and I can play with them.





This pendant was made with the last little bit of the original colored clay. I really like it. I call it Ghost Bird because he's a mere shadow of his former self!

My Bird Beads Are Featured At Polymer Clay Daily Today!

Cynthia Tinapple took a liking to my little Bird Beads and featured them in an article today at Polymer Clay Daily. Cynthia, I can't thank you enough. This is so exciting!

I worked up several batches of clay last night for new Bird Beads in different colors, and I ordered the complete line of Ranger Distress Embossing Powders from Blockhead Stamps. I wish now that I had taken photos of the clay. It took me several hours, but I finally got the colors I wanted and hopefully will be able to make a nice selection tonight, that is, if I get down off Cloud 9!

Thank you again, Cynthia! I love your wonderful blog, and it is such an honor to be included among the talented artists you showcase.
