Spring is certainly in the air not only with the visiting robins and wild canaries that frequent my garden this time of year, but with the arrival of the new Spring 2010 issue of Belle Armoire Jewelry Magazine. I wanted to share with you a few of the highlights from yet another great issue with inspiring designs, great photos, wonderful resources and eye candy on every page.
I have been honored once again to have a few pieces of my jewelry featured in this issue. My Pearls of Wisdom choker and cuff are examples of what fun you can have playing with fire, metal, solder and pearls.
I am so very excited to share with you a few pages of Riki Schumacher's, article "The Key to Etching". Riki and I are good friends and team teach mixed media jewelry art classes. I encourage you to visit her blog to see the amazing things this lady is creating. Riki will be teaching at Adorn Me! in Texas next week and has spots left in her two classes. If you have an opportunity to be at Adorn Me! and haven't filled your dance card yet, don't miss taking a class from this extremely talented artist.
And what can I say about this lady Stephanie Lee? She is not only a multi-talented mixed media artist but has the most generous and kindest heart. Her talent runneth over in so many areas. I have taken three classes from Stephanie over the past few years and learned so much. I do have to say that she is one of my mentors hands down.
Carla Reiter's pieces featured in this issue and her absolutely amazing knitting with fine wire techniques just take my breath away. Oh My!!
Be on the lookout for this issue to soon hit the stands. Well, I must return to my packing for Adorn Me! ...will my "to do" lists ever stop???? I am so excited to be traveling with my friend Riki to Houston and meeting up with our friend Diane Cook. What fun is in store meeting new art friends, sharing passions, stories, food and laughter....love it! Tootles
Diana

Wonderful Diana, congrats on another pub. Your work is stunning as always.xx
Diana, I was at Adorn me and met you a couple of times. You came into Diane Cook's class on Sunday and I was the redhead in the middle of the room making the rhinestone necklace. I wanted to take one of your classes so badly, but the timing with other classes did not allow it. But I did purchase one of your gorgeous pieces, which makes me do a happy dance! You, Diane and Riki were just awesome, I was thrilled to meet you all and purchase your wonderful creations (I bought one from all three of you)! I hope to see you next year and I will definitely sign up for one of your classes. Marcy
