Back home

El otro día leí un post de una chica en Facebook, discernía acerca de su blog... un blog abandonado... como el mío. Un blog vivo a veces, y otras durmiente, como muerto.
Esto me trajo de vuelta aquí... para intentar revivir este... otra vez.
Pero con una nueva idea. Voy a escribirlo en castellano, porque sufro menos pensando y porque estoy segura de que al menos estará correctamente escrito y estaré segura de que estará escrito lo que quiero decir. Todo esto lo he pensado mientras empezaba el post. Mi inglés va dejando mucho que desear y ya dudaba si poner live, alive... en fin, esa es otra cuestión.
Os dejo con una cosilla de scrap que hice este veranillo, un albúm de encuadernación japonesa para un bebé con letras de madera decoradas a juego.

Album "Fabulous"

With same biding with corrugated chipboard I made one colorful album... this was presented for a workmate of me to her  friend, so I have pixelated most of photos in order to keep their privacy.
I used Amy Tangerine collection for American Crafts, Plus One. It´s totally her style.

Several news

Hi, there´s a few news around me. I´m now focusing my learning in Scrapbooking, just discoverd it.
While it comes to something finish, I left here my last doll
and a new bracelet available at my shop, leather and murano glass, great mix of textures.

Beadweaving filigree rings tutorial

I´m going to try a little tutorial, so easy to make, rings with superduo or twin beads and a filigree setting like mine:

It´s easy to make, not my idea, so sorry about. I think there´s not other tutorial to explain it. You will need:

Filigree ring setting, C-lon, needle, one 3mm faceted bead for the center, 15/0 seed beads, 10/0 delica beads and 11/0 delica beads and superduo or twin beads. You must start making the flower by Biloba that you can find easily in Bricolart web it´s a lovely freebie. I love Biloba art. You must stop when flower is still round with superduo beads and delicas betwen like this:

Now you must adding four 15/0 seed beads between every two delicas:

As soon as you finish the circle you have all the beadweaving work finish. It´s time to start sewing the beadwork to the setting. 

I sew first one row of 10/0 delica to the finding and them the last row of the 11/0 delicas too. This way it´s sure and don´t move. Finish the C-lon threads as usual working on several beads, and cut off them.

Enjoy stitching!!! 

Sleeping... no!!!
