124.  Ruffled Clutch Tutorial ~ This little lovely would be the perfect addition to your summer wardrobe!  Isn’t the ruffle fantastic!  It gives the clutch the perfect amount of pizzazz.  You don’t have to be a highly skilled seamstress to make this clutch either, only intermediate beginner skills are needed.

234.  Travel Photography Tips ~ When we travel we want tangible memories of our amazing experiences when we return home.  We also want to capture the true beauty of the things we see.  Follow some of these simple tips such as capturing the details, landscapes and close-ups for the best vacation pictures.

301.  Faux Capiz Shell Frame ~ Isn’t this faux capiz shell frame gorgeous?!  You can make your own much simpler than you think.  If you can glue, use a paper punch and sew a straight stitch you can make this beauty.  Chalk pastels were used on the shells to give it the capiz shell effect and a mirror silver spray paint for shine.
