Shrink plastic "jumping jack" Leprechaun

I think this little guy is so fun.A "jumping jack doll"Leprechaun.

And here as a earring.

I just printed out the image and then laid the shrink paper over it and draw.It can be a bit difficult to know how to use the right ink,markers etc...to this and that paper sheets.Some of them "bleed" and some of them smear.

So,some time I can be a tiny frustrated.I have to try and try over and over again to make it right.And the shrink paper is not that cheap.

I know that Sharpie markers,StazOn ink and color pensilc are the best to use,but I want to color layering the images.

Like this:

 I have found a way to color them.It`s not a perfect solution,but it will do.

And I had to have a Santa gnome.It`s just one week unto Christmas.Holy,the time goes so fast.

Have a wonderful Christmas time ♥

Butterfly plastic necklace

This butterfly are made of shrink plastic.It always get more darker when it`s finish in the oven.I get it lighter on my computer before I print it out.But it will not get the "real" color no matter what...

I think the butterfly is still beautiful.

Here is another one:

It was a bit tricky to make them,because the images was so big before they shrunk.They stuck together (I made them one at the time)so I had to try to separate them in the oven.It was hot on my fingers :)

They are listed in my Etsy shop.

Have a wonderful advent time ♥

Baby in womb shrink paper necklace

This little baby in womb is just so adorable.It is made of shrink paper from Silhouette.

I don`t have the Silhouette machine,but it was fine to use without.The only think was that I had to rip of the paper on back.I used a regular printer to print out the image.And when it it finish to shrink in the oven,it turned out so small compared to the other size.The color turned out much more darker too.

I got so excited,it is so much fun when you see the image shrink in the oven and turned out so beautiful.

I think a black chain would have been nice,and match perfectly.

Have a great advent time ♥

Paper stamped Lion necklace

This is the first paper necklace I have made and I have to say I am pretty pleased. It was my first try so "perfect" is not the right word here. The necklace is not flat,it has curled a bit.But it is not a big deal,it just give the Lion a tiny bit more life to it.

 The Lion is made by stamping layers from the set by Hero Arts.I really love layering stamps.I had tree layers of the die cut head and glued them together,had some heavy on top so it should dry flat and let it set for hours.Then I glued the stamped Lion on top,let it dry and then I glued a layer on the back.Punced a hole for the jump ring and let it dry overnight.Then I coated two layers of glossy Mod Podge. 

I will also try matte Mod Podge,I think that will be nice.

It is a bit work to make.But it is so much more fun than work I think,so it doesn`t matter :)

And a little note: You can just use scrap paper to make paper jewelry,isn`t that nice..

Have a beautiful first advent weekend ♥
