Something new today from Stampin' Up! - Simply Adorned Charms! They actually started off to feature them in the Holiday Mini Catalog, but due to quality issues the release of them was delayed. So they are back in the Occasions Mini and I finally bought one! This is definitely stamping in miniature! I decided to use my favorite set from the Occasions Mini "Vintage Vogue" (117690 wood, 118598 clear) and its companion jumbo wheel "Very Vintage" (117693) which I've been featuring in more than one project lately!
So I decided to start with the 1" x 1" Square Charm size (116797) and the 24" Chain (116800). The beauty of these is that you have jewelry you can customize for any season, occasion, whim, WHATEVER!
The front side is beveled, which gives a neat effect to what's been stamped, but the best part is that the backside is clear too, so you could do something completely different on the back if you wanted! You can also use this to put in little photos of your sweetie, your kids, your dog, whatever!
The best part is, since you're working with such a small area (the biggest one is 1-1/2" x 2"), it doesn't take long to create something beautiful to put inside! Let me know if you'd like to see mine in person (my photography leaves a lot to be desired) and try these for yourself!
Thanks for stopping by today,
Peg

Hi Peg!
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love this charm!!! I've had so much fun with mine, and LOVE the fact that you can change them on a whim. I just ordered more to create a bracelet now!! Be sure to post any other creations you have with it. They are so much fun! Thanks for sharing,

Thanks! I was looking forward to trying these, glad I did. My apologies for my blog "look" - I'm not happy with it and I will be tweaking it soon - I need to make it less busy! LOL
