hope...DREAMS...wish 41

Hi there! I hope you had a great weekend! It's time for an all new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week's challenge theme is: "J is for..." July, journey, jump rings, jewel tones, and journaling. This week we are challenging you to be inspired by the letter J somehow. Be sure to tell us how you have been inspired by the letter J this week.
I was inspired to create a piece of Jewelry using Jumprings:
This challenge was the perfect opportunity for me to create a piece of metallic jewelry using a variety of products including an Ornate plate, Word Key, and Heart Charms:
I attached the heart charms and key using JUMP RINGS:
I colorized the metal butterfly and Ornate plate using picket fence Distress paint, broken china Distress ink and shabby shutters Distress ink. I trimmed a photo to size of my sweet daughter Angie then adhered and fastened in place:
Many thanks for stopping by! Please be sure to visit the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge blog to see what the rest of the DT has created!
