Transfers onto Fabric & hand-beading atc's!!!

Woo-hoo!!! Just noticed this is my 200th post....and do I have a way to celebrate! My next upcoming atc technique class is transfers onto fabric and hand-beading. Hand-beading is just so relaxing and something that even a real needle-phobe can do. You only need to stitch a few beads on in a simple style or you can be as elaborate as you want with fringing, peyote (not the ingestible kind!!!....how do I even KNOW about that???) and my favourite - picot beading! So as not to freak my students out too much, we'll be sticking to fairly simple beading for this class but if they've done it before, they can just go to town if they like - I won't stop them...I'll be cheering them on!

Now as my stupid computer decided to blow a gasket and has to be hospitalised for a few days, I'm without a means of showing you the pictures of the beaded atc's...but Natalie has kindly allowed me to use the pics that she took of them for the advertising of the class at Scraptivate.


"Life"...

"Passion"...

"Cherish"...

"Enchant"... (yes, I know it's pinky/apricoty and pretty, but remember I'm a Gemini so I can swing both ways! lol)

When my computer gets better I'll upload the rest of the pictures.

Great way to combine to art loves - beads and ATC's. I have to say I found Passion a bit disturbing - love the others.
