Painted Wine Glass

 This month Valerie painted wine glasses with some friends by using paint markers.  She decided to go with a Santa Belt for the holidays.

Birthday Card

This month Valerie made a stamped card for a friend's birthday.  She used markers to color the stamp and then placed them on the card.

Beaded Zipper Pull

This month Valerie made a beaded zipper pull for her purse after her original pull broke off.  She used a few jump rings and decorative beads to complete this look.

Scrapbook Pages

 This month Valerie made a "quilted" scrapbook page out of pictures of her old high school marching band t-shirts.  She stitched the title of of Marching Band (seen below) to tie into the quit theme.  She decided that showcasing her memorabilia this way was easier than making an actual quilt out of all her old t-shirts.  Certainly much quicker too:)

Wrap Around Bracelet

This month Valerie made a wrap around bracelet with silver oval memory wire and beads she purchased at Michaels.

Cards Galore

 This month Val got crafty with the cards.  She used patterned paper, stamps, colored pencils and markers.

Chalkboard Picture Frame

This month Valerie made a chalkboard picture frame.  It started out as a regular picture frame.  Three coats of chalkboard paint covered the glass, leaving time for drying between coats.  Then she used craft paint to make the frame green and add the swirly do-dads.  Then she can write on it whatever the word of the day is:)

Earrings

This month Valerie made two sets of earrings.  One a little dressier and one for more fun:)
