Today Gio had made a gorgeous little set for you which would make a great gift: a little altered box with matching earrings.
Absolutely LOVE this... and can't wait to hear what you think.

I cut out two circles from a Metal sheet - real copper. I embossed them using Craft Concept embossing folder: Sun rays.
Now the magic: I put the metal near a flame, until the metal changes colour. You can get always different effects depending how long you heat it.
I stamped a sheet of acetate with Black Stazon using Katzelkraft rubber stamps - Sandglass.
I cut out two little clocks from the acetate and I glued them with Glossy accents to the metal circles. I put an eyelet and added the Fish hook Earwire.
For the little box:
I cut out a circle of metal. I distressed the edge with a rolling wheel from Ten Seconds Basic set.
I cut out the circle in 4 parts and I embossed them separately, using Cuttlebug folders and a Craft Concept embossing folder.
I added a bit of colour with Viva Pardo Precious Metal paint.
I glued the 4 pieces to the metalllic tin, previously coloured with ranger Alcohol Ink pitch black.
I added the stamped acetate with Glossy accents.
I even created two little stands for the earrings, using leftovers of acetate
I made a second version cutting out the greatest circles from a stamped acetate using Stampers Anonymous - Tim Holtz: Flourish ATC stamp, and the smallest ones from metal.
Material used:
Metal sheet - real copper
Katzelkraft unmounted rubber stamps - Sandglass
Craft Concept embossing folder: Rays and Retro circles set
Viva Precious Metal paints: lime, lilac, yellow, blackberry
Stampers Anonymous - Tim Holtz: Flourish ATC stamp
StazOn Jet black
Cuttlebug embossing folder: floral Fantasy
Cuttlebug embossing folder: mesh
See you tomorrow
Wow I would wear them for sure :)
