Frida is my Muse Pendant - DB (DT)

The DILLY BEAN FRIDAY CHALLENGE 

 this week is FRIDA KAHLO! 

The Dilly Bean Challenges now require that you use a Dilly Bean Image on your submission.

 

I used Dilly Bean stamp #340 Frida's sugar skull for this pendant. I colored the image and then scanned it into the computer and removed the background in PSE and pasted it onto a digital paper from Create with TLC. After I printed out the image, I covered it with contact paper (packing tape works also). I then glued it to my repurposed memory game piece with Mod Podge. I attached the image, let it dry and then cut off the excess. I held it up to a light to center the design on the chipboard. I did the same with the backside. The edges are inked with gold sharpie. Use a small hole punch for two holes and then add your jewelry hardware. Easy Peasy!

I  hope you have been inspired to join the fun at Dilly Beans this week. Please check the site for rules and prizes. Also, take a look at the wonderful creations posted by my fellow DT members. They are a very talented group!
