Collage Curios Jewelry

This little stamp set Collage Curios has lots of options to use with our Soda Pop tops.  I have mastered the smashing, a few posts back with the Big Shot,so decided to make some easy jewelry! 

The jewelry findings were purchased from a Hobby Store, but all the stamped images are from this cute little stamp set! A tip for layering your colors, start with stamping the background letters in Crumb Cake marker , then the circle image in Early Expresso marker and finally the Butterfly in Calypso Coral marker.  Stampin' Write markers are perfect for coloring small stamps!!
 
When using classic ink the image should be set with clear embossing powder.  This gives your image shine and prevents the color from running when you apply crystal effects to seal the project.

I punched these with the 1 inch Circle punch and 1/2 inch Circle punch.   I used glue dots to adhere  the image to Soda Pop Top necklace.  The bracelet, I originally thought the small Soda Pop tops would fit in the circles, but not!  So I improvised and filled with the punched butterflies.   Love this look and will be wearing them soon.  A cute idea for teens and tweens to design their own jewelry!
