Our mission today was to use beads. I wanted to use them as part of my image and also as an artistic accent (note the sentiment). I made the corner piece with vellum and cut the edge with decorative scissors. The beads are strung with wire and I actually got out my eyelets for this card....anybody use those lately?

I love how you wired your beads to the eyelets!! Very cool!! And no, I don't believe I have ever really used eyelets. I would smash them and I just couldn't get them to work. I love how you have used the vellum also, something I should also try more.

I had eyelets out just recently - I love to see them used. And they are just so perfect with your clever bead accent - and I can just imagine the colourful beads braided into that hair!
