Let's Play!

I've never played around with alcohol inks and gold and silver leaf quite like this before and I've got to tell you, it is so much fun! I've done mokume gane with leaf before but for some reason hesitated to go any further...until now. Here are some examples of some (still tacky) pendants that I made last night using gold leaf, alcohol inks, sanded and then a generous topping of resin to give it that glass-like finish and voila!

I have made some blue and green with silver leaf and some hot pink and orange ones that are awaiting resin. I am so happy I gave myself permission and time to try new techniques.
