It's me again!

A bit of holiday, un bit of sun, and a bit of polymer clay. I'm back with a bracelet issued of my earlier work. Though it makes me think of Picasso which isn't totally me...

Under influence

After meeting and taking a class with someone like Donna Kato, you can't aspire working like before. My work shows her imprint!

I used the canes made in her class and worked them with my proper desires and the results pleases me a lot.

I think that I will slowly recover my style, but the mark is there!!!

Back from the Euro Clay Carnival!

So I'm back and as promised here are some photos for you who didn't have the chance to go there. It was so much fun, I learned a lot and met such wonderful persons, generous, fabulous, adorable.....You just have to go there!

Ok, let me start by showing you my poker chips, then those swaped on place and last our teachers'!

Then, here are the projects we made in our classes. Swell techniques and projects of quality.

I kept the best part for the end. Here are the wonders I brought back. Some were bought and the others given to me.... I was spoiled, worse than kids at Christmas. Live your dreams all the way through is all I can say.

I won't even show you all the other marvellous present I got because the most important part is in my head and in my heart. I just wanted to share this great experience with you all.

A great thanks to Helen Cox who had to organize the whole thing and to our wonderful teachers. Big kisses to my friends I had to leave too soon.
