Good Morning everyone!
Here I am with another Sari post for
In case you could not tell...I am in LOVE with Gwen's Irresistible India Embellished Sari Scraps- just saying! 
Have you seen some of the tapes she carries? Gorgeous! oops...back to what I was saying...
After covering the front of the book with Gwen's papers and tapes, I added a couple of cutouts to either side. Saving the center as I knew I had something special for that space.
The cutouts are from Gwen's Downloadable Collages-the Irresistible India Collection
Next came Gwen's Decorative Flower Stamen Medallion Stencil
Another new favorite stencil of mine! I just love this design Gwen!!!
I found this adorable little archway with opening doors in the Curated Mixed Media Stash Packs- the Jewelry Parts Pack from Gwen's store!
this just had to go in the center!
I'll come back to that...
After adding it,I realized I had not a large selection of purple beads...after scouting around my studio-woo hoo! I remembered the beautiful Amethyst stones my Tribe Sister Linda Edkins Wyatt gifted me!
What a perfect way to trim up this Sari!
Now,onto a few pics of the colorful stenciling aka bead work I referred to earlier
I just never knew how long and tedious and how difficult it is one handed to do! heehee
But I did it! And again, another shout out to my Tribe Sister Linda for these fabulously beautiful beads!
and finally another simply exquisite Irresistible India Embellished Sari Scrap
-in Purple. Such a beautiful way to finish the edging-don't you think?
Thanks so much for your visit! I hope you found my post inspiring and maybe you saw some products from Gwen's store, that you can't live without! heehe I always do!
So glad you came by and I will see you again,very soon!
Peace & Love
Jackie

Ohh Jackie, this is amazing-
I`m so in awe over your pearl art , fantastic art work, and the chosen colors are just totally gorgeous, together-- love the shine, you added, too- and the beautiful result of all the Indian images, and sari pieces and ribbons.
I hope you enjoy your camping dear friend- that the weather is with you- here we have 27 degrees in the shadow today, and had no rain at all, for 3 week- :-( all too dry !!
Take care and rest that hard working hand , a bit .
Hugs from Dorthe , x0
You're back, Jackie - and with such an exuberant project too! I love anything Indian inspired - the little door is my favourite part in this. Your cover looks very sturdy and tactile. Hope you're keeping well xx
Wow, wow, wow - words fail me, this is just totally and absolutely fabulous. Hope you are doing well, hugs, Valerie

This is just beautiful Jackie - I love how it turned out. And I can't believe you did all of that beading with just one hand! I don't think I could have done it... lol... I can barely do it with two hands! Thank you - it's gorgeous!
Jackie, you’re beading is absolutely stunningly gorgeous! And that little door! I’m in love......
Oh wow Jackie, this is stunning! I love the gorgeous colours and the wonderful beading - I think this may be my new favourite of your work!
I hope you are feeling much better now... Hugs, Anne xx
Jackie this is so scrumptious, if I was near it I would have to give it a little hug as it surely is a magnificent piece of artistry. I adore beadwork but have little time for it on a large scale anymore, just for small embellishments and jewellery pieces. I think you may just have inspired me to find out those beading needles and get busy!!
Hope your holiday gave you time to rest and help you on the road to recovery?? We missed you whilst away.
Bug Hugs and Thank you for sharing this delicious creation.

Jackie, words cannot describe how much I love this beautiful,beautiful cover! Those little doors in the arch are the cat's whiskers! It's all just amazing and incredibly lovely! The beading is superb. I am completely bowled over by this piece, which I think is one of the loveliest of your exceptional creations! Well done and so good to be feasting on your blog again. xxx
I am just eating up every detail on your cover! I can't believe that you did all that bead work with one hand. I really want to try bead work, especially since Gwen rocks it, but I don't know if I have the patience. You did an incredible job of coordinating everything together on this cover. And those little doors are so cute. But I really Love the sari scraps. In fact, I love everything about this journal. I know I am sounding redundant because I say that every time you post a layout from this journal. ;) I really hope your book is not completed yet. If so, you may have to start a second volume.

You are a super star beading with one hand!!! OMG Jackie, you're amazing. This is absolutely beautiful and you're such a tease. I was hoping for a peak inside those little doors!!!!
This is simply amazing Jackie! The beadwork looks fabulous, such a perfect cover for your wonderful sari scrap journal! I am really blown away by the beauty! Hugs to you, glad that the worst days are behind you. xx
Wow! You knocked it out of the park! And one handed too, amazing. So glad you could make magic with my bead stash! Xoxoxox
Just beautiful! You are in love with sari scraps... Saris are indeed beautiful... Decorative and silky materials. And you make such indpired lovely art with them.😄
That looks so wonderful and the glued pearls are perfect to it.A new masterpiece again. I like it so much what you perform magic with fabric,paper and some pearls.
Dear Greetings

Jackie, to look at all these details are so inspiring. You, my sister, are amazing!!
Jackie, this is a stunning project - from start to finish I just love what you've done here. It's a fabulous cover, and I can hardly wait to see what's next!!! Well done, my fabulously artsy friend. xo
Oh my goodness! And you did that one handed?! Hard to imagine. That said, the beading on this is divine. I love the shiny surface. It really pulls everything together. How did you do that? I want that in my life! Really digging the way you brought the elements together and truly integrated them. Genius!
