Emoji luv necklace +diy. So I'm pretty sure all of us are obsessed with emojis by now. I need like emojis everywhere in my life. As a graphic artist, I totally believe in the idea that images speak louder than words. Hence my love for The Emoji. So when I was at Target one day, and spotted a package of - what?! - Emoji stickers?! I was super excited. So anyways, I totally grabbed a pack and decided to get to work. To turn these stickers into charms, I turned to one of my favorite materials: polymer clay. Adding these emoji charms to chunky chain from Cousin Corporation, and mixing with rhinestone pave beads, totally completes the look.
I'll show you exactly how to make your own below. Are we ready?! Step 1: Gather materials. Step 2: Choose which emoji sticker you want as your charm. Step 3: Gently peel off your sticker, and stick it right on the pancake. Step 4: Continue trimming, using your Xacto blade to get right up against the sticker. Step 5: Carefully make a vertical hole in the clay with a needle. Stamptramp: Double Embossed Dog Tag Tutorial. Hi all! I have been having a lot of fun in the studio lately playing with some new products and I have a very cool project to share with you! A couple of months ago, Els from Elizabeth Craft Designs was kind enough to send me a set of her new jewelry dies. Of course, my first thought was, 'what can I cut with these?! ' They are wafer thin dies, but I really wanted to see if they would cut aluminum flashing. I was shocked when they cut it like it was butter! I set the dog tags aside and got distracted with something else (typical). Last week Wendy Vecchi sent me a selection of her embossing powders (it was like Christmas!)
My first experiment yielded a cool necklace (which I'll post soon). Begin by cutting a dog tag from aluminum flashing (I got mine from Lowe's) using the largest dog tag die. Next, sprinkle Wendy Vecchi's Orange Blossom embossing powder over the tag, making sure to leave a few areas open. While the paste is still wet, cover with silver embossing power. Stageit - Micah Schnabel - Not the Boy You Used to Know EP Digital Release Party! DIY Tutorial: Snow Jar Necklace. A reader pointed out that I can make fairies in a jar with the glowing beads I made the other day. After a search for the how-to in the Internet, it looks like the craft calls for the liquid inside a glow stick. I am (still) struggling, trying to find out how to cut my glow stick (it seems like I will need a more powerful tool to cut through it). So, with whatever I had at the time, I made this glowing snow jar instead, minus the glow stick.

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my blog so that you don't miss a single post. Thanks for visiting! I am soooo excited to share this project with everyone! If you recall, last week I shared a piece of metal that I embossed with a Texture Fade, colored with Alcohol Inks, and then coated with Rock Candy Distress Crackle Paint (see that post HERE). If you remember, the effect was amazing looking but not very durable. Well, I did it! I do want to say that I got several suggestions to use Crackle Accents in place of the Rock Candy Distress Crackle Paint. Okay, so now, on with the tutorial. . . First up, to make the metal pendants like mine, you will need some sheet metal. Cut the metal pieces out using scissors. Along each edge, make two score lines, one at 1/8″ and one at 1/4″.
Trim about half of the metal away in the space between the edge and the first score line on each side. After you trim the edges, cut away the corners along the fold lines (as shown above). Whew!
