WOW WOW WOW!!! Still drooling!
OK - I came across this link, and knew I had to share!
This lady's creations are just amazing!
http://cgi.ebay.com/DESIGNER-Purse-S...QQcmdZViewItem
She has 4 items listed right now, and they are all amazing!
I cant even begin to imagine the time and effort to go into something like these - never mind the cost! |

Way, way, way too busy for me. I think she could have minimalized it and made it appeal to more people.

I think it's way overdone.

Oh, I wonder if she's the same lady who sells sb pages for hundreds of dollars on the bay! I'm not a bay lurker or user, but really appreciate when folks here point out the cool stuff. The detail and design are fab and no doubt she'll get lots for it.
TFS!

WOW! I looked at the "history" of sells and she puts alot of work into her items and actually has a following of regular "buyers". Good for her to be able to earn money for something she obviously enjoys doing  |

Regardless if you like her 'busy' look or not, she has an amazing talent for crafts. I love her stuff!

She may not care if it appeals to more people if it sells for $81.00, which is where it is currently. I like the look of it all, even if it isn't really "my" look.

To each there own opinion, and mine is that I think she has done an absolutely beautiful job with this, and like others have said, if you can make money from something that she obviously enjoys doing (cause you can see that in the work she produces) why the heck not!!! I wish I was half as talented as she is, I would be making mega money, lol

Hopes she makes enough for the time it must have "cost" her. Very intricate!

Too busy for me, but obviously there are people who like that style. Everyone has their own style. Thanks for sharing though, I love checking out hand crafted pieces!

She did a dollhouse scrapbook and it sold for $381.99...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=300122346067
It's beautiful but I'd be afraid to use it... It's more of a work of art than a scrapbook...
She has more talent in her little finger than I have in my whole body...
Her stuff may not be my style, but I still wish I had the talent like she does...

That dollhouse scrapbook was too awesome for words. WOW! Very talented indeed. By the way, someone asked if that was the same person as who did those wonderful scrapbook pages and it's not - she's a different seller.

Those are absolutely gorgeous! I can only imagine the time she put into them. The supplies alone would cost a lot for something like that.

Her work is amazing... but honestly, I couldn't get attached to it the same way as if I had made it. There is a special pride whenever I finish something and I don't want to sell it... I'm selfish... I want to keep it! If I know I won't be able to, I make 2!! :-P
But at $300 a pop... geesh!!

Wow! I just spent half an hour looking at the dollhouse one! I have her as a favourite seller now - I can go back anytime and look at all the other items she's sold for inspiration. Her extreme overload of detail is exactly what I adore! If I was rich and had infinite amounts of time, all my cards would be embellished to the hilt too! |

I think she definitely appeals to a niche. More power to her!

I love it but I like the "overdone" look too. I have a really tough time knowing when enough is too much - ribbons, and primas, and stickles - oh my!

Hey, there is something out there for everyone. I like her work and if she can get big bucks for what she does then I say go for it! We'd all do the same thing, right? Free enterprise!

Just curious, who is the other seller you mentioned? Or others with similar work? I really enjoyed looking at this scrapbook and am intrigued to see more! Thanks, Aimee |

Personally, I love how "overdone" it is. I can only imagine the time it took to create such a beauty.
