PAPER NECKLACE & MINI ALBUM @ CRAFTY CATZ

Good morning all,
 
I hope you are all well.  Well, this is my 3rd week as Guest DT at the fabulous Crafty Catz and i am having a ball. 
 
The theme for this week's challenge is: ANYTHING BUT A CARD.  How cool is that? 
 
The sponsor is Crimson Cloud.
 
For my projects, i couldn't decide what to make. I thought about a mini chipboard album but i have wanted to try and make a paper beaded necklace for ages too.  You can buy them here in Dubai but who wants to buy them when you can make them yourself! So, what did i decide to make? Yep, both!  Here they are..... I would be delighted to hear what you think.
