As you know, I am a fan of the magazines from Stampington.
I believe they are the best on the market for quality and innovation.
If you have ever held one of them in your hands, you know they are printed on lovely heavy paper and the photography is exquisite.
I used to think that the price tag was high, but anymore, so many magazines cost around the same price and are not printed on the same quality paper.
And I mentioned before, the number of pieces and projects in one of their magazines compared to a book actually makes them a bargain.
It is true again for Belle Armoire Jewelry Autumn 2015 issue.
Stick around for a chance to win a copy sent right to your doorstep...
First let's peek inside...
Monica Johnson creates these lovely necklaces with my favorite medium, polymer clay.
One of my favorite artists, Cat Kerr, is at it again...
Her designs are genious and never-ending.
She tries so many mediums and styles.
She never gets stale.
I love that about her...
These necklaces are awesome and make me plug in the soldering iron...
Marlene Quigley has these fantastic earrings in this issue.
Justine Brooks' earrings are inspiring...
This ring from Roxy Lentz makes me want to play with metal...
Melinda Barnett is a dear friend and I am thrilled for her every time I see one of her pieces in print.
Her ceramic pieces in this one call to me...
so much so that I am researching getting a kiln....
And those metal leaves....
Don't get me started....
Gorgeous!
Staci Louise Smith first inspired my deep passion for clay.
She also does some fantastic wire and metalworking as seen in this article.
When I was pregnant with my daughter many years ago I made dream catchers.
Mine were huge and made for hanging over your bed.
These tiny pendant size ones are inspiring from Ebru Kapsal.
Sometimes I look at a project and swear it is something I made...
It just looks so like me.
That is what happened when I saw these cuffs from Rochelle Gaukel.
They are so me....
And then there are these cuffs which also look like me...
Because THESE are mine...
They were a project that actually made me grin while I was making them.
I used DecoArt's Metallic Lustres on these.
I love the feeling of rubbing the colors in with my fingers.
I like to get messy when I create...
So, that is such a small sampling of what is in this issue of Belle Armoire Jewelry.
And I would encourage you to run out and buy a copy right away....
