Instructions
Step 2: Fill small triangle mold with QuickCure Clay.
Step 3: Remove Clay triangle from the mold.
Step 4: Use a Craft Pick to make a hole in the center. Make the edges of the hole jagged to give it some character.
Step 5: Refer to package instructions and cure the Clay with a Heat it Craft Tool.
Step 6: Using the Ranger Detail Blending Tool paint the top of the triangle with Intrigue Alcohol Pearl, and then the sides with Rose Gold Mixative.
Step 7: Paint the inside edges of the hole with Iced Enamels Medium using an ICE Resin Brush.
Step 8: Insert some Bronze Shattered Mica and Sterling Glass Glitter Shards into the hole.
Step 9: Place the triangle onto a piece to tape. Mix 1 oz of ICE Resin according to the package instructions. Pour 1/4 ounce of the mixed resin into a mixing cup. Put a drop of Hacienda ICE Resin Tint into the ICE Resin and mix. Pour tinted Resin into the hole of the triangle. Set aside and let cure 8-12 hours.
Step 10: Once the Resin is cured, brush some Iced Enamels Medium onto the bottom point and sides of the triangle. Apply some Pewter Iced Enamels to the triangle. Heat with a Heat it Tool until the Iced Enamels are melted.
Step 11: Attach a jump ring to the back of the pendant with some Quick Cure Clay. Heat the clay until cured.
Step 12: Add two jump rings, a chain and then tie a piece of Sari Ribbon formed into a bow on the chain and you are ready to wear your beautiful neckla
