A Few Silver Bella Projects to Share

The projects at Silver Bella were amazing! I really enjoyed each and every single one and would have a hard time choosing a favorite. I thought I'd share a few of my projects with you. Some are complete, others like this one, are not so complete. This is a little peek of the  "Be Our Guest"class,  taught by Anna Corba. Such a guru in the paper crafting industry, isn't' she?
 This project, is one of the completed ones. I was really excited about this class. It was taught by Kaari Meng of French General! French General!  I love everything about French General. You, by now know how much I adore  religious items. I got to use up some of my personal collection of vintage Mary medals and learned some new jewelry making techniques as well. Everyone's necklace turned out so pretty. 
 I think I will wear this often!  This little guy, I bought from Jennifer Murphy as a kit on vendor night. She also offered him as a class. I had seen a few of the other girls with their completed snowman and had to have one. Took the kit home with me and finished it a.s.a.p.! Just in time for Christmas decorating! I painted his adorable little nose pink.... with nail polish and asked my mother in law to knit im a scarf, because I don't knit. Wish I did... but, I don't. And a minute later, the little guy had a scarf! I also made him a little candy cane out of the paper covered wire stems of velvet leaves. Isn't he sweet? I am so happy with the way he turned out! Happy Sunday, girls!

Gabrielle I love your gorgeous projects! And I love how you went and bought the kit to the class you didn't get to do, it's so adorable!

oh, do you know, you have made my day. I've had a tough day (past week, actually) potty training my little girl - you know how much stress goes with that. Coming here and seeing all this gorgeous fluffy pink vintagey Christmas goodness has lifted my spirits so much. I LOVE your wreath, and must shamelessly steal that idea (is that ok?), and as for your projects - just too fabulous for words. I'm very envious of all of you girls who went to SB, sounds like such a great weekend.
Snowman is just too sweet for words!

I've just informed my hubby that the tree we usually put in his den is out this year (artificial one I spray painted black for him a few years ago). Instead we will have either white or pink artificial tree. His reaction wasn't too bad!! We're off buying our main tree this weekend. Can't wait!

Thanks again for making me smile after a trying day :o) xx
