After weeks of occasional deliberation I finally picked my word for 2012... will post what and why in a couple days...
In fact the photos are so great that I wanted to print it all to keep for future reference... BUT I can only get it to print pages 1 and 2 and then all the comments... Problem solved!! Both Kerry and Karen sent it to me in PDF format... Thank you!
Here are a couple pieces by French artist Anneta Valious, check out her site. Here is another site with slide show of soutache jewelry by Dori Csengeri I know that somewhere before long I want to adapt this in CQ... It just says PEACOCK to me... Can't you just see a long tail of this braid and beads????

Beautiful jewelry! I will be posting my word tomorrow. After trying to come up with just the right word, it was right in front of me all the time. I hope you will have time to visit.

This stuff is gorgeous Gerry! I can see it lending itself to cq too! Off to check out the link now and see if it will print off for me.
ReplyDeleteHi Gerry - I made them into word docs and just sent them to you. If they don't come through, let me know and I will try again.
