Hi Everyone,
The challenge this week over at "Lots To Do" is to use stampboard in your project.
Now this is a challenge which I knew I would really enjoy, I just love Stampboard, it is so versatile and forgiving.
For my entry this week I have made a necklace using 3 pieces of stampboard, a few glass beads, brass spacers, metal findings and some cord.
The 3 pieces of stampboard were arranged into a single square and stamped as if they were one piece using an Artylicious Peacock Feather Stamp and black stayzon ink, the images were then coloured in using a very fine brush and Tinkabella acrylic ink, finally they were edged with a copper Krylon pen and glazed with Utee. I have use metal jewellery findings (although perhaps no as they were intended to be used) and jumprings to attach them to the cord.
Although I have used stampboard to make brooches, pendants and bag charms in the past, I am particularly pleased with this necklace, and Sam will like it I think....her favourite colour is green.
