Here is the first piece in the shop

Well, I have finally decided to open  up my Etsy shop again, and give it another try.  I have so much jewelry to sell and even though there is so much competition with it, everyone's is unique in its own way.  My jewelry has a Victorian Steampunk theme with a bit of Vintage added to it.  I hope you will all stop by as I am filling it up this week with more goodies.
My pieces are different from those you see listed under Steampunk jewelry and I hope you browse through to see my work.

Above is my project for the DT tryouts for Sin City Stamps
It is a Scrapbook page that I made, since we just got back from Paris a few months
ago, I thought I would do a Paris theme.
I rubber stamped an image of a couple in love and used Zig's Wink of Setlla pens to color
them in.
I added some washi tape to the sides and the word Amore on the left
To the right is a bottle of wine and a rose.
I went over the word Paris on the sheet of paper with stickles then added Vingate Sparkle Glitter to
enhance the color.
I then stamped an image of the Eiffel Tower with flowers on it and colored in the flowers with
the Zig pens.  The Eiffel Tower is covered in yellow Stickles because it lights up every night a
bright yellow.
Then I added a smaller Eiffel Tower on top of the big one to give it a 3D look.
The top has a strip of measuring tape just as an accent and a French postcard on the left

I hope you enjoy this project

I am back from The Art-Is-You Retreat in Ct. and it was wonderful.  It was great seeing old friends and making new ones.  The vending went well on Saturday morning.  Everyone was in a frenzy to shop since they had classes to go to.   My wonderful hubby helped me with the vending.  I took some awesome classes, one with Kecia and Jane where I made a faux mercury glass house (I will post pictures) and a class with Andrea DeMeng where I made this awesome collage.  What fun.

Now there is more exciting news!  On December 16th, I will be vending at FIT in Manhattan.  I now have to get back to work and make more jewelry for that show.  If you are in the area, head on down, there will be some great vendors there.  I am going to be with Tery Favo and Isolina Perez and Tery will be selling her gorgeous jewelry as well.
Hope to see you there!

Here we are in October already!  The only problem is that today will be 84 degrees!  Where is Fall?  One of my favorite seasons!  I have been working on my jewelry for the Art Trunk Show at Art-Is-You in CT which is only a few days away.  This year I have made many different items than I usually do.  I hope a lot of people show up as the artists for this show work very hard at their muse and put everything they have into it.
I am excited to say that in December, I will be vending at FIT in NYC.  I have always wanted to sell in Manhattan and I finally got the chance.  Here are some pics of my jewelry.  These are just some samples of what I have been making.  Stay tuned for more news from AIY in CT!
