Playing with Craft Artist 2 and some new makes

I've wanted to have some software to display my jewellery photos better on Facebook for a while. Publisher just seemed to be too expensive for what I would use it for. After watching a bit of 'Create and Craft' TV I decided that Craft Artist 2 was for me, and I was right. It takes a bit of getting used to but can be used to great effect. I am now in the process of using it with all the photos of my jewellery, though that will take a while.

Recently I've been making bracelets. I tend to get an idea in my head and just go with it. Pearl look bracelets was one idea that I went with. I don't often use faux pearls in my work, I prefer gemstones, but these ones were so pretty I had to use them.

 

 

 

 

After all these makes I decided to go back to using gemstones. I also wanted to use colour too, and decided to do a random style memory wire bracelet using lots of different gemstones. I'm really pleased with how it turned out.
