DIY Faux Enamel Leaf Earrings

I've gone embossing crazy lately and whipped up some earrings to share with you. 

Aren't these fun? Light and comfortable to wear too.

I used Lawn Fawn Stitched Leaves die cuts and Sizzix Tag Tie cuts. Die cut cardstock four times for each set of earrings. so that you can glue 2 together for more stability. I had some board that I used too. 

All of the doubled up leaves/tags were inked up with pigment ink, dipped in Ultra Thick Embossing Powder and heated up. I used Versamark for the second coat and embossed again. That's where the enameled look comes from.

I hope you enjoy this. The ideas were popping up so fast that I decided to put a mini class together with more ideas. Subscribe to my blog or newsletter (see side bar) to be alerted. We can all make loads of these for friends and family for a great little gift.
