Projects and In Progress

I have had my March BJP page finished since the last week in March but hadn't taken the pictures... so today is the day....

This is the teaser I placed on the BJP Blog

And here is the full page

And a close up... butterflies, leaves, all in shades and  hues of spring.  The page was truly done in Faith...the spring weather in Ohio has been colder than usual and I didn't have a living green sprout in the woods for inspiration.

I haven't started my April page, I have been pondering what I want to say about April and I have been unable to arrive at a concrete design plan. I know I want to use a face or maybe two on this page and have even made the faces from clay.

The ones on the right are baked and the ones on the left are air dry paper. The paper ones are light as air. I'm thinking the small faces will be flower centers, I will need to make a real plan soon or I will be behind again.....

I did finished a cuff  bracelet I started several months ago.....

The foundation is ultra suade.... I couldn't decide if I should fill in around the leaves, so just let it wait around for inspiration, I liked it the way it was so I finished it off. I don't have any clothing in those colors, but that hasn't stopped me from wearing it.

Thisnext picture is a bracelet that has been a work in progress since I purchased the polished stones several months ago. I collected a mountain of delicas and seed beads that I thought would look good then one by one eliminated all but a few greens and purples..... I still have two small stones for the right side to finish then I will need to shop for a sturdy clasp.
