2 Cute Sunflower Pendant with Cowboy Kid Face

So I got inspired to make this pendant because today I went to walmart and bought a few flower pots and a package of seeds to grow sunflowers!  I thought they looked so pretty on the little packet especially because the colors of the flowers were yellow, reds and oranges!  So I thought lets make a smiley sunflower and I will use the face of the Cowboy Kid Rubber Stamp, the face looked like it did smear a little bit, probably cause I should have waited to gloss it, but I couldn't resist!

So I finished glossing this pendant today and I think it came out great!  This is on a bigger wood square so I was able to fit more of the image on it.  You can really see the sparkle at this angle.

2 Cute Rubber Stamps Pendants

So I was thinking of a fun way to use 2 Cute Rubber Stamps and I came up with creating pendants.  I had some wooden squares I had from a previous project so I thought why not stamp and paint them.  I ran into a few problems:

     1.When I painted the wood and then stamped on top and then added a layer of                         gloss  the "ink" smeared. 
     2.  I tried first stamping on the wood then let dry, then painted with some translucent              glass paint but that semi smeared the ink and then once again smeared when I put                the gloss on top
      3.  So then I bought a different ink pad, but I bought the wrong one I need to buy the                starz on brand because that won't smear.

So after all the different testings I ended up just stamping with my original ink pad and using colored pencils to color the image instead of paint.  I used crayola on the turtle pendant and I used prisma colors on the owl. I let the turtle ink dry over night and then I glossed where I just stamped the owl and let it dry for like and hour and then glossed.  The owl seemed to bleed just a little when I glossed where the turtle seemed to be ok.  I did also put some pearl x powder ontop to give it some sparkle but it didn't show up as much as I wanted though you can see it better if you look really close.  I did find out I need to mix the pearl x powder with a certain medium so it will sparkle better.  I am going to buy the starz on ink pad soon and do a test with that.  I really like how these came out and can't wait to put bails on them and string and wear!  Who knows I may start a 2 Cute Jewelry line.   I also have some other ideas where I continue to crop the stamps in a unique way and also maybe even doing some hand drawn one of a kind pendants, perhaps even some abstract ones too!!!

Finding Consignment Shops

4/26/2010

So the past few days I have been searching for some consignment shops here in Southern IL, though most of the shops in Marion are clothing consignment shops.  I did find a place in Murphysboro that I need to call tomorrow and find out what types of things they sell and see if my stamps would fit in.  I also remembered Long Grove up where I use to live has little boutique and consignment shops, but after reading through the shops online, I didn't come across a place where I could sell my stamps.  So right now I am stumped and not sure where else I can get my stamps seen!

Here is a sketch I came up with right around the time I came up with Cat-Knit.  I really liked the cat so I decided to make the cat by the Eiffel Tower, at the time my co-worker loved France and Paris so she inspired me to create this design.  I was thinking I may do a series with this cute cat.  Let me know what you think of this sketch on the Rate My Sketches Page.

I was just doing something thinking this morning before I woke up and I came up with a couple of questions to post for the week!  So Today I am asking where does everyone purchase the majority of there rubber stamps from?  Actual Store, Online- Etsy, Websites, Ebay, through Catalogs, Craft Shows.   Maybe a bit of both?
