I’ve been experimenting the last few weeks, and having fun getting sticky with Crystal Effects (did you know it’s a fabulous glue as well – it sticks almost anything together!) Anyway, these cute little earrings were part of my experiments! I stamped onto Basic Black cardstock and embossed in gold the tiny heart image from the Tiny Tags stamp set . Then I used the Small Heart punch to punch them out, and layered three heart shapes together before adding the embossed heart and applying a hole in the top of each heart. I applied two coats of Crystal Effects, drying thoroughly in between coats, and being careful not to cover the holes up. For each earring I used a gold eyepin, and threaded on beads from the Pretties Kit, attaching a heart to each eye and a gold ear hook to the opposite end, trimming and bending the end around jewellery pliers to secure. I can see I’m going to have to make more with Christmas looming!
