Etsy Inspiration #129--Desired Things


 
 



















Good Morning & welcome to another Etsy Inspiration Challenge!!! 

Our featured shop is called Desired Things.  Leigh's store showcases contemporary handmade jewelry & mixed media artwork.  Her work is quite lovely so I'm sure you won't have a problem finding your perfect piece!!  She is generously offering one of our players a 10 pound voucher which equals $16 US dollars to her store & our sponsor Sparkle Creations is giving away one of her cute stamps to another lucky player!  For your chance to win, just visit the shop, pick your inspiration, make whatever your heart desires & link it to the EtsyInspired Challenge Blog by next Friday, March 11 @ noon Pacific Time.

I chose the pink & black necklace & this week's Mojo sketch as the sources of my inspiration!  I also used an oldie but goodie SU! set called Bubble Queen to help pull this baby together!!  I had so much fun coloring that image in & adding glitter to those bubbles---you can even see it in the photo so I'm really happy!!!!!!  After adding a bit of texture & spritzing my black piece with some shimmer paint; I am quite pleased with the end result!  I do hope that I've inspired you to play along with us and for even more AWESOME eye candy; check out the rest of the Design Team & leave them some love:
