Sunny sunflowers - a necklace!

A new set of stamps has been launched this week by Chocolate Baroque, a lovely seasonal set of Sunny Sunflowers which promises plenty of scope for bright seasonal projects.

Here is a project from me, using some of the leaves from the set.  

For this project I stamped the leaves onto mount board as a guide to cut them out with my powerful Tim Holtz scissors, leaving a small border around the edge. I then embossed the edge with an embossing pen and turquoise metallic EP, before re-stamping with the leaf and embossing that too. I coloured the leaves with H2O paints in shades of turquoise and green. I fixed some jewellery fittings onto the larger leaves with pliers and then stuck them together to form a panel which was the right shape for the wire choker necklace.

The stamps are on special offer until the end of June, so pop over to the link above to bag a bargain. You can also be in with a chance of winning the stamps if you pop over the to DT blog here  where you will also find a link to the CB Facebook page where there is another chance to win a set.

Hope you have enjoyed a lovely sunny weekend.
