IMAGES OF THIS PROJECT HAVE BEEN REMOVED DUE TO PUBLICATION. LOOK FOR IT IN THE FEB. MAR. 2009 EDITION OF HOMEMADE
Here is a project I created for CHA-S using loads of new Maya Road products. I don’t think it will be hard to figure out I am so in love with many of their new releases.
You will be seeing lots of these new felt beaded flowers, the clear stick pins (be still my heart) and the cherry blossom chipboard sets in future projects and layouts. I made the base of the wall hanging by placing two pages from one of their new albums end to end. I will share that album soon.

and I get to finally start sharing some of my CHA-S projects. I think Maya Road really out did themselves with their new release. I got to play with lots of their new products and thought I would share some photos of a few of my favorites. You are all going to be stalking your LSS believe me!
This set is so unique. Some birds look as though they are flying and some are perfect for resting on a branch. Which is nice when you want to add dimension and interest to a project. The blossoms are beautiful. Some are nested so you can have a really thin chipboard outline of a flower with a felt, fabric or paper inside…. so many creative options with these.

These little Flower Jewels come in Clear, Spring and Winter color schemes.
The Felt Beaded Blossoms come in three different sets, Brown and Cream, Lt. Pink and Dk. Pink, Red and Black. Each little bead is hand sewn onto the flower. The quality of the beads and felt is top notch.
The Suede Stitched Blossoms also come in three different sets Pink and Cream, Red and Orange, Blue and Brown. The rhinestone centers match the blossom petals perfectly.
Oh and the Pom Pom Trim something I will be using a lot on layouts and projects comes in Cream, Pink, Red, Green, Blue, Brown. These are certain to be a staple in your scrapping supply.
Which products are going to be a must have for you?
I cannot wait for Monday!
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend.

Here is a little charm bracelet I made yesterday using all of the Trinket Beads by Maya Road (Birds of a Feather, Hearts and Butterflies and Tutti Fruity). From start to finish this little project took me less than 30 min. I used 8 of each bead design and tied a little piece of Trinkets Marigold Ribbon at one end.
I think this charm bracelet is so cute and summery. It would make a really fun kids class or project to make at a birthday party. Each bead has a super crisp image and the clarity is incredible. They also remind me of Jolly Rancher Candies. I loved sucking on those as a kid but have to admit now they nearly turn my mouth inside out from being so sour.
Don’t forget… Caroline and Deb have been posting away all week with new release products. Today they posted new flowers and ribbons. Let me just say… my heart skipped a few no more like several beats when I saw these little beauties. Go check out their blog. You will be oh so happy you did.
