Paper Bead Technique

I am a terrible blogger... but, I have been stamping.  In fact, I have a technique to share with you at the Cornish Heritage Farm forum.  It's fun and different... and perfect for scraps of paper you might have around.

Paper Beads:

The technique requires only a few supplies... stamps, cardstock, ink, glue... and wire or other jewelry findings to make whatever your heart desires.

Here's a close up of the beads.  I used the Vintage Text Scrapblock for my cell phone strap... irony, yes?

And a bonus project for the technique were these earrings:

I think I'll make a few more of these to have on hand for birthdays.

To see a step by step outline of how to recreate the beads, check out the tutorial HERE.

Thanks for stopping by,
