Second Sister

You should check out a new website that is quite lovely & whimsical. Second sister is the creative genius also known as... April Meeker. She taught at Spark No 1 with Margie and was instantly a Spark sister to us.
Not only did she draw the city scene above but she made me this gorgeous butterfly necklace for my Dear Lizzy photoshoot. I wore it with one of my ensembles at cha.
I love all the intricate details like how all the butterflies are made out of leather then covered with dictionary paper then gorgeous silk and packaged in an embellished cigar box. The chains she uses are beautiful too. You have to check out her shop because she makes such gorgeous necklaces and jewelry. Definitely drool worthy works of art.

Laughing at Suzy in the photo... since getting my iphone this photo looks all too familiar to Collin. lol.

    It so "fits" you!

    My friend Lexi (Freehand Scraps) met you at CHA. She said you were a sweetheart.

    Thanks for the intro to Second Sister. Very fun pieces!

    Hi there. I scraplifted you (again) Here's the layout: http://wickysticket.blogspot.com/2010/02/load-day-4-if-i-can-do-this.html
    It's my version of your darling layout in CK Feb 2010.
    Congratulations on your AC line. I love AC products, and I think it's a great match. I pre-ordered one of almost everything in the line already.
    I can't wait to see what you come up with next, though you have been so incredibly productive in the past year you probably need a rest!

    Seeing that great piece reminds me of Miss Ruby Sue's necklaces, which of course reminded me of her signature flowers... I really really really hope you will do a tutorial on how to make them!

    As always, I love your stuff. Keep up the GREAT work!
