Stamp it up!

When my friend Jenna introduced me to Etsy, I fell in love with all the metal stamped jewelry!
Anytime  i see something i like, my first thought is "Could i make that?"

I am a beginner stamper, but i love it! I have always enjoyed making jewelry, which i thank, in part, to my mom because she is always making jewelry!

To begin my jewelry stamping, i bought some plain metal discs of a variety of metals from Etsy.com, and i bought a set of alphabet/number stamps in a basic font. I actually bought 3 different sizes too! I look forward to the day that i can buy the super cute fancy fonts! (They are pretty expensive though.)

I have an assortment of glass beads (another favorite of mine) because they are great to make different jewelry pieces with. This is what i combined with my stamps to make these adorable bracelets :)

ps...my mom helped me with this idea because she wanted an initial stamped bracelet for mother's day...of course i added my own touch :)

pps...haha can you tell i love smiley faces?!!


This is my mom's bracelet. Her name is Cheryl.

... the other side...

I also made one for Antonya for her birthday!
