3) Thread twine through the button holes.


4) Tie some small bows from the twine and adhere to buttons.


5) Glue a mixture of buttons and resin charms inside the egg. 
Fill as many gaps as you can.


6) Adhere a sheet of 6 x6 paper to a square card blank.
7)  Cut on of the 6x6 sheets in to half and use a boarder punch to create a frilly edge.
8) cut a small doily into half and adhere to the top and bottom corner of card.


9) Finish off with a few buttons and a sentiment.

Docrafts PDT Button Jewellery with Pocket Full Of Posies

Hi all

I am sharing my PDT project for this month and i've tried a bit of jewellery making using the charm pack from the Pocket Full Of Posies collection.

Here is a cute button and charm bracelet i made. I used a length of chain and measured it around my wrist to get the sizing correct. I used 20mm and 35mm eye pins to thread the buttons and charms on with. I grabbed the end of the pin with my pliers and wrapped it around the top.







To make the frame charms i drew around the frames onto a sheet of patterned paper and then cut them to fit before flooding the charm with Anita's Glossy Accents an idea i borrowed off Becky.

The necklace is simple to make.
Take a length of chain and once you have the correct length open up the links and add a  lobster clasp and jump ring so it can be opened if needed. The pendant was made using a larger round metal frame from the charm pack. I took a small white posy from the Papernania mulberry flowers pack and spritzed it with Cardinal red and gold spritzing inks. Once dry i adhered it to the frame with a blob of glossy accents and then flooded it with more glossy accents and placed a gem in the middle before it dried.



Earrings

Quick and easy all i did was thread 35mm eye pins through some small buttons and added jump rings so i could attach more buttons and earring hooks.

Its off to the seaside with Portobello Road from Papermania

more seaside layouts and more excuses to add buntings to everything. i had some papermania portobello road paper left so i made this layout of Weymouth a seaside resort that couldn't get anymore British if it tried
 i mixed some acrylic paint with water and painted the background to tone down the bright red background. i then used misting spray and stamped the background with all aboard postcard writing stamp.


this time i used ribbons and charms to make the bunting .
