Cuban Queen Crazy Chick says:If your intentions and heart are pure, don’t let people’s negativity get you down, Elaine. Forgetting to give credit to the original designer and purposely and knowingly taking credit for something are two completely different things. Be easy on yourself, Elaine, and keep on designing!

puppychick labratbecky says:Debbie: your design is gorgeous.
Elaine: your design is gorgeous.
Everyone else: There are only so many ways to put beads/stones/components together. Everyone learns from others. How many people have copied Chan Luu so far? One little tweak of something you have seen makes it yours. If Elaine did not buy the pattern and did not copy Debbie’s picture exactly, she should not be attacked for making herself a piece of jewelry.
I used to design wearable art (clothing). I put up a design, in the fabric store where I worked, for the public to use for fre. Another designer saw it, copied it, and then SOLD it as her own design. THAT is stealing. THIS is not.

Elaine aka Belly Chick says:Thank you…very well said, Puppychick!
My pick was used to show how I feel on the inside over some of the very rude and unkind comments used under my post, (excluding Debbie, who has been very gracious about it)!

Karokat says:I don’t understand why some people feel the need to be mean – they must live sad little lives. Don’t let it interfere with your beading enjoyment, Elaine.
