#117 Mini me, Frida skull necklace. Challenge Lost coast designs.

 

                                                      Hello, stamp fiends, Riet here.

What a great challenge Gail (teamleader lost coast designs) has given us.

Mini me, love it.

This challenge really sparked my imagination. 

 I love shrink foil, so that was the solution to make something small.

And this is the result, a Frida skull necklace.

Hope you enjoy it.

This is what you need to make the necklace.

Frida skull

Fourth dimension

White shrink foil.

Markers or pencils

Stazon Jet black

First we start with stamping the Frida skull.

Color it, keep in mind that you keep the colors light,

When the foil is heatted and shrinks the colors will be much darker.

Cut it out and heat it in oven or with the heattool.

Read the instructions on the shrink foil package.

Next step is to take a die and cut it out on your machine.

Dont have a die cut machine? 

No worry, you can cut a form with a sissors.

Dont forget to make the holes, make them big becouse of the shrinking.

Mine where as big as a pencil.

Stamp with the stazon the fourth demension stamp.

Now wait till the ink is completely dry.

When not dry it can smug when you shrink it.

Now you glue the skull on the background

Attach a few metal rings through the holes, like on the picture.

continue to assemble the necklace as shown on the picture.

I hope you have as much fun with this necklage as I had.

Thanks for reading my post, and have fun with making your own juwelry.

Dont forget to show your minime on the LCD blog in the challenge.

You have a chance to win some rubberstamps.

So please join us at

CHALLENGE #110 - SPOOKTACULAR FLORALS

 Hi there, 

the new challenge on the Lost Coast Designs blog is spooktacular florals.

So I chose the Frida Skull stamp, and the spiderwebs background stamp.

I started with the background stamp and distress microglaze.

Then with the distress refill black soot and fired brick,

  and a bit of water I went over the spiderweb.

While this is drying I continue with the Frida stamp.

On a piece of paper I stamped Frida with embossingink,

then embossed it with fine black embossingpowder.

Nou make a mask, and mask Frida off.

With a paper stomp dipt in micro glaze I made some lines around the Frida stamp.

Then I went over it with watered black soot.

With a die cut I cut out a lovely frame in black paper.

and I colored the frida skull.

Now you can glue it al together and matt with a plack paper.

Its now up to you, hope you will join the challenge.

The Lcd/CV designteam are looking forward to see your creations.
