Cute Necklace Idea

I saw this idea on the demonstrator website and just had to give it a try.  Tori and I were looking and looking for a 'V' pendant one day (similar to these) and couldn't fine one.  About a week later I saw this idea.  I made these for Tori's birthday (Tori, if you see this act surprised, K).  After you add a chain they will make the cutest necklaces ever!  Of course these were my first try at it and they aren't wonderful, but it will be fun to try some new ideas in the future.   I only had the Vanilla Hodgepodge so I embossed one of them in silver.   I rubbed some Chocolate Chip Craft ink on one side of the Vanilla Hodgepodge just to give it a different look.

Step one:     Cut off the end of two pieces of Hodgepode Hardware.

Step two:     Stamp paper for the inside and punch it out.  

Step three:  Put the paper between the two pieces of  hardware.

Step four:    Clamp hardware together - top and bottom - with mini library clips.

Step five:     Fill in one side with Crystal Effects - let dry - repeat on other side.

Oooh...I love it! Problem is, there are about 5 words/products in your instructions that I have no clue about! Maybe you'll have to sell some to me on your blog. (-:
