Create your own Fantasy with “Jeremy Bright” up and coming Fabulous Designer!
I totally LOVE what Jeremy Bright did with my Jewel Fantasies Die from Spellbinders Paper Arts. He is so talented, charming and just a super sweetheart!
I believe he cut hundreds of Jewel Fantasies out, I think he said over 200!

I had the “Time of my Life” while attending the Craft & Hobby Associations Trade Show in Anaheim CA. It was a huge whirlwind of Family, Friends and amazing Business Associates.
I introduced my NEW Line of Spellbinder Dies featuring the Jewel Goddess while at CHA so it was only appropriate that she travel with me and experience the fun.
Here we are sitting in the US Airways Club waiting for our flight, surfing the internet on our IPAD2 looking oh so fabulous covered in our favorite Artistic Wire.
Of course she insisted on sitting in First Class from Philiy to LA, such a Diva Goddess, LOL!
My my first stop was to my Dad and little brothers house in Oxnard CA. To my surprise I was greeted by yet another abandoned puppy that was found roaming the streets in their neighborhood. He is so sweet! Puppy Taz! You will be more than spoiled in your NEW home that will care about you unconditionally. Shame on people that simply throw these poor animals out into the fields and streets. Karma is all I have to say!
Bernie, the first abandoned rescue was NOT happy about the addition of Taz.
But before I left town they seemed to work out their differences and both fell asleep on Papa Joe’s lap.
Next stop, Los Osos CA for a quick visit with my sister friend Tiffany Windsor founder of Cool2Craft
The highlight of my trip, hanging out with the First Family of Crafts! Aleene told Tiffany that she was proud of me! The most Empowering words ever! Made this Goddess very happy!
Stacey & Jeff Caron, Founders of Spellbinders PaperArts, hosted a dinner for the attending Staff, Design Team members and Licensed Artists at Buca Di Beppo Friday night prior to the show. Here I am with the Super Talented Samatha Walker and Stacey Caron.
My Artistic Wire & Spellbinders Workshop sold out in minutes. We had 50 Plus people attend.
My students loved learning how to Twist their own unique color combinations of Artistic Wire.
The entire Spellbinders Team was on hand to help out! A HUGE thank you to each of you!
Finally! The first day of the show, breakfast with Momma Bev and my dear friend Suze Weinberg.
ILOVETOCREATE had a ROCKIN BOOTH featuring all of their innovative and cool products. Including Tulips Body Art! This is Savannah Starr Great Grand Daughter of Aleene Jackson, inventor of Aleene’s Tacky Glue in the gold bottle. Starting in March I will be one the ILOVETOCREATE featured Bloggers, SUPER Excited to be back with the Duncan Family.
Interesting how things come full circle! I TRULY LOVE working with Beadalon and Artistic Wire.
Every year these amazing woman from Sacramento CA come to visit me. They were so happy with their Jewel Goddess pendant adorned in the NEW Sexy Pre-Twisted Artistic Wire.
The Beautiful and Talented Crafty Chica even came by to visit! I LOVE her!
Of course the Beadalon/Artistic Wire booth wouldn’t be so fabulous without the incredible team of Steve, Yvette, Mike, Madeline, Steve, Mike and Wyatt.
My feelings of Gratitude were beyond words to see my New dies in the Spellbinders Booth
The Product Performers Booth, Distributors of Spellbinders Dies.
and at Notions Marketing, Distributors of Spellbinders Dies.
There were a lot of Good Times while at CHA, like hanging out with my Favorite Wild sisters Cindy & Stacey. I am pretty sure this is the night I found my false eyelashes stuck to my IPHONE!
I was just walking by and this thing jumped on my head! I should have bought it!
My Favorite girls from Singapore, I love them so much!
Of course there were oodles of smiles and photo’s of both my Front
and Back! Don’t ask……………..LOL!
Awesome NEW talent Jillian Vance designer ~ entrepreneur stopped by to make a Jewel Goddess pendant.
And there were NEW Friendships made. This beautiful, talented and wise group of girls from Simon Says Stamp, summed it all up for me. Their young souls truly brought joy to my heart and reminded me of the Love and Gratitude I have for Life!

Thank you Spellbinders Paper Arts for sponsoring this contest!
I am beyond excited to introduce you to three of my die releases with Spellbinders Paper Arts Company. I wanted to create an “Empowerment” line of dies with a purpose and to design a surface that people could journal on. I have been using the Goddess symbol in my Jewelry designs for many years. I absolutely love the curves that embody this form and am excited to inspire people to play with this shape and use it to tell their own stories and capture their memories & personal truths.
First up is the ever so voluptuous Jewel Goddess. I have had so much fun creating with this die. From Jewelry Design, Home Dec, Paper Crafting and everything in between she is the perfect symbol of Unconditional Love and Inspiration.
LF-013 Jewel Goddess MSRP: $59.99 PRODUCT SIZES:
Grand Goddess: 9½ x 4¼” Small Goddess: 6 x 2¾” Heart LG: 1⅞ x 1¼” Heart SM: 1½ x 1⅛”
Next up are my Jewel Treasures. A collaboration between my very talented Mother Beverley Morgan and myself. We wanted to take our Wire Icons that we had been designing on a jewelry jig and make them available as paper icons for scrapbooking and card making. I also used them in my Mixed Media projects. The Crown is Very Diva like, especially when you add a little bling!
Coil SM: ¾ x 5/8” Coil LG: 7/8 x ¾” Hand: 1 1/8 x 1 ¾” Crown: 2 5/8 x 1 ½” Star: 2 1/8” Kite: 3 ¾ x 1 5/8” Flower: 2 7/8 x 1 ½”
My Jewel Stones were inspired by the real thing. I have been collecting Gem Stones and Designing Jewelry for many years. I wanted to share that passion and excitement of holding a stone in your hand or wearing one around your neck with all of my Paper Crafting friends. The possibilities are truly endless with this collection. You can cut them out of engraving art foil, ink and stamp with them, add embossing powders and micas for extra texture and add them to all of your Creative Endeavors.
S5-098 Jewel Stones MSRP: $29.99 PRODUCT SIZES:
Square/Princess: 1 3/8” Oval: 2 3/8 x 1 1/2” Triangle/Trillion SM: 1 ½ x 1 3/8” Triangle/Trillion LG 1 5/8 x 2 1/8” Oblong: 2 ¾ x ¾” Rectangle: 1 ½ x 2”
I asked some of my closest Artist friends to create projects using my new Spellbinders Dies. You won’t believe what they made. Make sure to visit each of their blogs and leave comments! You never know what fun we might have in store for you! Cheers
