Gaze your eyes upon these beautiful Artworks

Many of you know the talents of this amazing

Mixed Media Artist, Marie from Lost Bird Studio,

the creator of some of the most beautiful

soldered resin jewellery pendants and other pieces.

 

 Can you imagine the joy and honor of receiving such

a delightful gift like this beautifully created little

lace book and handmade card from Marie.

 

 The book only measures 4 inches tall

and the cover displays this beautiful soldered resin

image of a woman with a nib beside her.

 

 The folder opens out to reveal another

 

 sweet image, charms, medal and beads
 but look what can you see poking 

out of this inside pocket?

Even two more soldered pieces.

Aren't they just the sweetest images?

 

And even more on the back cover Marie

placed another pocket which held these tiny cabinet cards. 

 

 Marie this whole gift to me is so very special

and I will really treasure it as I so 

appreciate the talent, time and hours of love you have

dedicated to creating this!

Thank you dearest friend. I am so happy to have you in my life.

♥♥♥

I have a couple more birthday gifts to share soon.
♥♥♥
 
In the meantime I have been working fairly solidly in my studio creating a new journal / lace book
and here are just a couple of peeks at this stage that I can
share with you.  

 

It is full of some beautiful art pieces, rich colors,

 silk, satin and brocades, textures 

 

 layers of laces, embellishments and trims.

 
So if that's your fancy then stay tuned!
Wishing you all a new wonderful week feeling refreshed 
and nourished both mentally and spiritually!

Vintage Jewellery Gifts

You may remember me mentioning
that I recently had a

birthday and I would share some gifts

from some incredibly

talented

bloggy friends!!!

Firstly came this most beautiful parcel full of these 

treasures from Marie (Lost Bird Studio)

an altered little box with the prettiest Paper Whimsy image

containing this amazing 3 dimensional soldered pendent 

with metal buttons, and a tiny pair of scissors -

a most essential item for anyone like myself

creating with fabric, laces and fibres.

 Now isn't this so beautiful? Yes "Truth" and truly

such a beautiful collage within an altered vintage

photo frame!

The talent of Marie is extraordinary!

She knows also how much I love these cabinet cards too

as well as serviettes for altering in my journal work.

Thank you so so much Marie - I feel blessed to

have you in my life!

This delightful little keepsake bag from vintage crushed velvet

and lace

contained one of the most beautiful soldered pendants

I have ever set my eyes upon.  This was designed and created

 by the talented hands of Terri (Artful Affirmations).

Terri I think was wanting to create one of these

pendants for me and asked me to send

just a few favorite images that I loved

and

this is the one she chose!

She has the most amazing touch and you can see all the

feeling she has poured into this exquisite piece.

How could one not feel inspired by this

beautiful piece of art?

 Each beautiful vintage pearl and glass bead has been 
individually wrapped

 and

 dangling from the soldered image on chains
are some very special messages in the
form of beads, words, stones, medal and buttons.

I can only imagine the hours Terri has spent

 bringing this tailor made piece of art
together

and I can't tell you just how very fortunate I am

to be the receiver of this piece.

Now I have to tell you that Terri has an on-line class

in teaching this method of creating an intuitive

piece of soldered art and you can find all 

the details if you click on her link

above.

The beautiful copper closure is so unique

and, of course,

once again it carries another signature

of mine - the sewing machine

which everyone knows

is almost part of

my anatomy!!!

And too, in the parcel was an assortment of

fabrics (not seen by my eyes before)

containing a few music, script and bird patterns.

Now if  that is not spoiling you - I don't know

what is!!!

From my heart, dear friend, I feel full of

gratitude for your kindness.

I often wear this pendant now when out and about

and am so often asked wherever did I buy

such a gorgeous piece of jewellery???

Not a day goes by when I don't feel blessed to have met

and connected with some beautiful friends

in blogland!

I also very much appreciate the inspiring comments

you all leave when visiting me here.

Thank you so very much

and

have a sun-filled day wherever you are!

Love and hugs,

Suzy
