I was looking to
do something different
in some jewelry pieces
and found this tutorial
I modified some of it
First I scratched
the surface od the key tags
(I purchased these at ACE
for .99 a piece
They do have
larger ones for 1.59)
with sandpaper
(I didn't take any photos
of this step)
Spray painted them
my old stand by
Rustoleum Heirloom White
in the tutorial they used black ink
Michaels was out of it
and I decided to try StazOn timber brown
using Recollections Elegant Double
I think I like the brown better
After stamping the tutorial
had you put them in a 350 degree
oven to heat then sprinkle
Recollections
Detail Embossing Powder
and let it melt - I tried that
but it didn't seem to really
work for me
so I lightly sprinkled the
tag put it in a 350
and waited for it to melt
You MUST stay close by
as it melted I would sprinkle
more on to get better
coverage
I also tried
using glossy accents
to see what happened
It takes a day to dry
it does give the same look
but much
more time
Tomorrow I will be designing
necklaces with these...so stay tuned!
