Difficulty:

Category: Jewelry

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Classic, Traditional, Casual, Whimsical

Materials

Wooden oval, paint, scrapbook paper (olive spiral on cream), Rub n' Buff gold, Pressed flower stickers (scrapbooking item), 2 part resin, Glue-on bail, Purple leather cord, Olive braided cord, Scrap fabric and silk ribbon for tie, Toggle clasp.

What was your inspiration?

I wanted to use the pressed flowers in a design, and the wooden oval was the best shape. The scrapbook paper made a great background.

What are you most proud of?

The pressed flowers didn't align perfectly at the bottom and the paper showed through, so I painted the area with some dark green, to emulate flowers growing in a field! Looks much better than random spots of the scrapbook paper.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Try different items layered together.
