Hi Everybody,This is a complete change for me and working with these bezels is something I have never done before I went on my trip to Spellbinders in Phoenix
We did a workshop with Stacey and these are what I made.
Now I know there are experts out there who will think they don't hit the mark ... but this is my first attempt and I was quite pleased.
They are the Chandelier and Heart Bezels from Spellbinders A Gilded Life collection and I have added the link so that you can view some of the other products that are available.
The jewellery that can be made is fabulous and with practise you can make it too.... and better than I have done.
I added in some of the self adhesive strips from Want2Scrap to add a little more adornment to my pieces and maybe I will wear one on Create and Craft today.
News Extra
I am sorry to tell you that the Spellbinders shows lined up for TV over today and tomorrow have been taken off Create and Craft because they have sold out of the Teal Grand Calibur ...You have been busy treating yourselves to Christmas presents and you have bought them out and now there have no more in stock at present ....
Disappointed ??? Yes ... me too !!
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx

The Jewelry you have shown us is lovely. I just popped over to C and C to see what time your shows were today. When I saw nothing, I came here. Disappointment, yes. Now we will have to wait until next year to see Christina on C and C.
ReplyDeleteI am waiting to see if you are going to post anything with Spellbinders A Gilded Life Beacon Street Chapel. I know you don't do 3 D items but I love the die and also all the projects I have seen with it so far. I was hoping to get it before Christmas to make up some holiday presents but I can't find it for sale yet here in the US.
Aww, was looking forward to seeing your demos. Hope they paid your expenses.
ReplyDeleteSorry we won't be seeing you today after all Christina. Pretty bezels. Pat x
ReplyDeleteHi Christina, so disappointed no shows, but then we still have today's card, so that is lovely. A Very Happy Christmas to you and your family. xx
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Christina. As there is a 5 hour time difference between Gaylord, Michigan and the UK, I was up till 2:30 a.m. last night trying to find you and your shows so I could try and catch some. C & C didn't have you listed. Major bummer… ! I'm so sorry. However, I did discover they now have a C & C on the Internet in the States! Don't know how long it's been there, don't know any more details, but I spent a good amount of time perusing. I felt your presence in spirit! I hope you find this day filled with Joy!
ReplyDeleteHi Christina, so disappointed your shows have been cancelled, was so looking forward to them. Merry Christmas to you and all your family. Will look forward to your Spellbinders shows next year. Meantime we still have you on your blog, lucky us.
ReplyDeleteTake care.
Hi Christina
ReplyDeleteLove the bezels. Sorry your shows have been cancelled. I'm sure you'll find alternative ways to fill your time.
Love & best wishes

Your pendant turned out so nice...a new adventure is always nice to try it out
ReplyDeleteSo sorry that your show was cancelled...I had it on my calendar so I wouldn't miss it but I guess I won't be seeing it....Have a great day Christina and relax
Hi Christine
ReplyDeleteJust love your jewellery and they look perfect to me. Wish I had just a tiny bit of your talent and I would be so happy. What a shame your shows were cancelled. I to am waiting for my Teal Grand Caliber. My older one had a manufacturing fault according to Karen Haas as it was dropping oil on my plates and work. And the casing was cracked.
Oh so sorry about the cancellation of your show, did they let you know before you set off for the studio, how frustrating after all the work you put in....as someone said, it is only a change of colour calibur, you could have still shown us the dies surely....never mind. I do like what you have done here tho', I bet you have had a great play with them...they are superb....luv Ursula xx
ReplyDeleteSeeing you on the big screen next year is something to look forward to. Happy Christmas to you, enjoy with your family. Diana
ReplyDeleteHi Christina. Wow these are lovely, well done. Oh, what a nuisance, no shows. Still it meant a day off for you. I hope you spent it crafting,lol. Have a great week end. Hugs. Jan. xx
ReplyDeleteBrilliant work as usual Christina.
ReplyDeleteYou poor thing, that C and C news must be so deflating for you. I feel like screaming on your behalf, honest I really do! I think I could even manage to say some 'strong emergency' words as well!!
Never mind, chin up and all that!
Love Mary Mac x
Your bezels are well done. I have never heard of this before. Sorry your show was cancelled. Dianne
ReplyDeleteDisappointing for the cancellation but I really like the bezels. I would be very interested in seeing how they were done (hint, hint :) ). Hope you and your family have a safe and happy Christmas. Down under we're expecting the temp in the 30's (C) and bouts of thunder and lightning yay...
ReplyDeleteHi Christina, well aren't you clever. The jewellery looks really good, I wouldn't have known they were your first attempt, well done, you :). Well, I can understand why the new colour Grand Caliber sold out as it's quite unusual isn't it. I think that it's much nicer than the other two colours and if I were looking for a new die cutter I would have loved to get one. I already have an A4 die cutter though and think if I do ever get another one I may go for the Big Shot (shame on you I hear you cry lol). x
ReplyDeleteChristina,
ReplyDeleteI am so very disappointed, I was looking forward to seeing you. Well, maybe you can a video for us instead. I think your first attempt is well done, and as you stated, with practice, perfection.
Sorry your shows were cancelled! Such a let down! Love the new teal Grand Calibur and one should be on it's way to me soon along with an amazing assortment of the new dies! I am beside myself with excitement!
ReplyDeleteYour bezels are beautiful and I wouldn't have guessed that they are your first attempt!! If you could bottle up and sell your talent you would be a billionaire in short order!! TFS!
ReplyDeleteHi Christina,
I love the bezels, I haven't done this either, are these metal or chipboard?
Di.
Oh, these are beautiful. Wonderful job.
