  1. Rachel This is fab - wish you had a blog so I could see how it was done! I can see that whatever you have done you have then stamped the silver alium into it whilst it was soft enough to make an impression. Lovely necklace. Good luck and thanks for entering the Claritystamp challenge

  5. Thanks all for your lovely comments! I made it from polymer clay, and while the clay was soft (before baking it) I lightly brushed my Clarity alium stamp with mica powder with a fine paintbrush, and then stamped into the clay. I touched it up a bit after I had stamped it, with a fine paintbrush to give it more definition. Finally I baked in the oven to harden the clay and buffed it up with a soft cloth to give it more shine. Doing things like this is my passion, so I loved making it. Looking forward to next months challenge! I don't have a blog I'm afraid, but I'm looking into perhaps getting one set up! Rachel
