Silhoutte Jewelry

Here's another Pinterest inspired project. 

I have had my Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio square punch, bubble caps, and metal charms for a little while.  Up until now, I have made a few charms and embellishments using pretty paper.  When I came upon children silhouttes in a Pinterest project, I wanted to try!  The original post I looked at suggested playing with the printer settings to get a dark profile picture.  What I ended up doing was getting the profile size that would fit in my charm.  Then, using a very sharp pair of scissors, I cut the profile out.  Next, I used a black Sharpie and colored the entire profile.  I attached this to a background paper, and then used my Epiphany Crafts tools to create the charm. 


I am very pleased with these, and plan to make a bracelet next.  This is a fun technique that is a great memory saver!
