A wonderful Blessing

I can't believe that it has been so long since I last posted...I have been busy with LIFE...my wonderful husband and 3 lovely children!!

Yesterday, I was reminded of a car accident that happened many many years ago...when I was in Middle School when a car plowed into the back of my mothers car as she was taking me to school. Yesterday we were sitting at a light when a car ran the red light and almost plowed into the side of me on the passenger side. The car was traveling at least 55 miles per hour as she ran the red light. Thankfully my mother noticed the car and noticed that the car was not slowing down. Her motherly instincts took over and she waited for the car to pass. The lady in the other car was clueless of what had just happened.

This morning while sitting in church the reality of what took place yesterday finally hit me. When I think of what could have happened or where my family could have been this morning...I am truly thankful and blessed.

I thank God for my mother and allowing me to see another day and spend it with my family worshipping Him!

My FIRST Jewelry Piece

I created this necklace using UTEE (Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel), empty locket, different Hearts and beads.

The hardest thing was adding the UTEE because as you set it with your heat gun, the powder tends to blow around. You have to be VERY CAREFUL because it gets hot QUICKLY.

*Use Tweezers!!!!

The second piece I created I used my Melting Pot. I heated the UTEE in the Melting Pot and used a Spoon to add the melted UTEE to the locket and that worked WONDERFULLY. Just be careful because it was very hot and had to level it off each time I added a layer of UTEE to it.
