Have you ever heard the saying "life is a chinch by the inch but hard by the yard"? Well, I took that saying and translated it into jewelry. Everything except the heart with the mermaid, are made out of a cut up yard stick. They measure one inch across and 1.2 inches tall. I cut up one of those old, thick yard sticks so it's very sturdy (they don't make them like they use to!)
The tiny collage was on this one was made digitally using elements from Tumble Fish Studio's "Flower Land Gnome" kit.
bump your opacity down to about 67% before printing out the sheet b/c as the piece shrinks, the color intensifies....... also make sure you pieces are 50% BIGGER then what you want them b/c they shrink to half the size....... also after you get the pieces shrunk, spray a clear coat over them because if they get wet, the color will smear. So with all of that being said, here is a piece with lots of yummy summer colors. The mermaid was created with the body from Studio Tangie's "Oceans" kit and the face is from Tumble Fish Studio "Diva's" digital kit.
The next two yardstick necklaces are traditional cut and paste collage sealed with resin......
This is a digital collage made with elements from the At The Beach kit from Tumble Fish Studio.
