Welcome to the big Nunn Design, Envirotex and Stampendous team up!
I am really excited because this week all Stampendous gals get to play with some really fabulous products: Jewelry Resin and Jewelry Clay from EnviroTex and bezels from Nunn Design.
I love jewellery (UK English spelling lol) so being able to incorporate stamps to create truly unique (and durable!) designs was great fun. This has really opened a new world of opportunities for me! Today I am sharing a couple of pendants I made but I will be back on Friday with another exciting project. On Friday we will also host a fabulous blog hop, full of amazing projects as well as...yes, you guessed it - lots of prizes to win, too!
Ok, here's how I made one of the pendants.
First I covered the bottom of the bezel with Pearlised Mica and Tea Stained Mica fragments. I used Matte Multimedium to glue them in place.
Next, I stamped the butterfly from the Royal Butterfly clear set and leaves from the Critter Collection set onto white card.
I coloured the images with STAEDTLER ergosoft aquarell pencils and blended the colours with a water brush.
Next I fussy cut the images and arranged them over some pressed flowers. Again, I used Matte Multimedium to glue them in place.
Before you add resin, you need to seal any paper elements - I used Beacon's Fast Finish to seal mine.
Now you are ready to add resin. I didn't take any step out photos for this as I prefer the experts guide you through it :). So have a look at the video below to get all the deets:
And here's the finished piece.
For the second pendant I used Pearlised Mica fragments for the background. Then I stamped the sentiment from the Rose Thoughts clear set onto tissue paper which I glued and sealed with Fast Finish. The tissue blended in quite nicely letting the subtle pearlised background to show through. To embellish the pendant I sprinkled some Multi Crystal glitter, Lavender Glass Glitter and Silver Glass Glitter. And I added some gems and a jewelled flower from an old broken jewellery piece.
I really enjoyed playing with resin and I hope you approve of my first attempts :). Be sure to check out all the other projects shared - hop over to the Stampendous blog for all the links. I can't wait myself to start blog hopping!
Have a fabulous week my friends and I will catch up on my visits soon!
Big hugs

I'm really loving these ... I have to say the second one is more my style but I can imagine that IRL they look even more beautiful!
Oh wow! These turned out fabulous! The leave and butterfly, are perfect together for the bezel and so nicely colored.

Super gorgeous! I bet napkins would work really well with the resin as well! So glad you were able to play with us this time, Asia! We're so thrilled you're on our team! Thanks so much!!
Love these! Fabulous job!
I didn't consider fussy cutting out small stamped images and adhering those inside with fragments and dried flowers! One of a kind, beautiful pieces!
What STUNNING pieces! I love seeing the different techniques to make jewelry! I am most certainly going to have to try each of these techniques! TFS!
