Trying to finish Silver Bella 08 projects!

Hi All -

I am glad I packed some projects with me to finish up while I'm here in Nebraska.  I took the Rebecca Sower needlework bracelet class at Silver Bella last year and have yet to finish it!  I made all the individual squares during the class but needed to put it all together and embellish.  I worked on it today and attached all the squares, added the little vintage number ribbon and the little black and white lacey bits.  I added the button as well.  All that is left to do is make a button hole and I am good to go!  I will try and complete that tomorrow.  

I was hoping to continue work on the October tags for my SB swap, but we had lots of errands to run today, including a trip to Michael's, and they didn't have what I needed for the tags...will have to go back to Omaha to Mangelson's for that special something.  In the meantime I found LOTS of other things I "needed".  I bought art paper to add to the art journal I am raring to go on making.  I was very inspired by Hope Wallace's journal, and am anxious to begin my own.  I did order a journal and instructions to make my own from Eve at her etsy shop evalicious.  I have lots of ephemera and other bits that I want to add too.  

I think I am going to order the latest eZines from Teresa too so I can have all sorts of ideas to journal about!  

Hope everyone had a good weekend!  

Crafty dreams,
