So, I'm still stuck on doodles. I can't help it, I'm just not tired of them yet! Over the weekend, I played around with an Ipad sketch I posted to our family's sketchbook blog last week.
I like the colors in this one a lot and when I came across a few sheets of shrink plastic in my studio, I knew immediately... Charms!
I used the Paper 53 app to create the sketch, then took a screenshot image of the finished sketch and imported it into Iphoto. I lightened the colors of the entire image (colors go dark when shrunk), then printed it out onto a sheet of Graphix Ink Jet Shrink Film.
I cut out around the individual flowers, even the ones that ran off the page, and included some of the surrounding blue.
Punched a hole in each.
Then baked them according to the instructions on the package.
Then I had fun making pendants!
And charm bracelets (some readers may remember the ones I used to make... I still love charm bracelets)-

Now go forth and make it a great Monday people!
