The problem is that I didn't start making these things until recently.
I bet you all knew that there are less than three weeks before Christmas.
I'm pretty good at ignoring obvious things like that. 
(Thank you, Stephanie, for the inspiration -- and instructions -- to make the portrait pendants above.)
But, I do my best work under pressure.
It's a good thing.
OMG, you do GREAT work under pressure! Now I understand your audible gasp at my mention of Christmas this evening. I'm thinking you're doing great, and the cards are perfection!!!!!
ReplyDeletegasping as well
ReplyDeletemoving on too

I'm thinking kitchen dancing

It's just as well you do your best work under pressure - Christmas is nigh. Absolutely love your work.
ReplyDeletestunning Leslie - amazing card and pressies.
ReplyDeleteLeslie, you have been one busy lady! Beautiful work, my friend!
ReplyDeleteI like the fire extinguisher in the back ground. I solder without one-- not that I solder often. But when I do, I do it on the edge!!! (No really, just a really big ceramic tile.)
ReplyDeleteOutstanding work Leslie. I will have to remember not to fear taking Stephanie's class next A&S.
I love your work! The stuff your creating right now is the stuff I completely LOVE!
ReplyDeleteBTW, I thought of you today! I went to my orthodontist and the technician is a gal that reminds me SO much of you! Very lovely and she just has this kind light to her. Oddly enough, when I met her for the first time (the first time she tortured my teeth! LOL!), she said I looked familiar to her! That's the Universe for ya...
Big hugs...and hope you're having a lovely season. :-)
oh, my. These are scrumptious! Thank you for your very generous comment on my blog.
ReplyDeleteI love what you've done here. I'm still a bit scared of doing metal, but even under pressure, look what you've done with it! Cool.
Leslie,
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful! the tiny portraits!!
AND I just love seeing the multiples.

These little beauties are fabulous, I'm still trying to perfect the technique, maybe I need to do them under pressure.
