Wild Side Blackbird Resin Heart Necklace

Difficulty:

Category: Jewelry

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Romantic, Whimsical, Casual


Materials

Heart Bezel, Resin, Leopard print scrapbooking paper, Blackbird clipart, ribbon necklace.

What was your inspiration?

I wanted to combine Leopard Print with something unexpected.

What are you most proud of?

I like the doming on the resin.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Coat your papers with glue thoroughly!! There is a small breakthrough dark circle from where the resin slightly discolored the paper (called "wet out"). If I had gotten all the edges, that would not be there.

I think you did a wonderful job. For a moment I thought it was a bought charm on ribbon, then I read. GREAT job!!! I can see the "wet out" but it looks like part of the pattern. Well done! The creator of the piece is always the worst critic. LOL I am the same.

Thanks, Debs - I do think we are most critical of our own things, because we have a picture in our mind's eye of what it "should" look like. I appreciate the compliment!

I am sure most people wouldn't notice, but man it really bugs me when that happens.
