George - He's Cool Like That

I'm not going to lie, here, folks. I really love this one. This was a slightly different type of piece for me and I had SO much fun creating him! I am totally going to be doing more pendants like this in the future. It was just too much fun to quit now!!!

So, here he is: George.

George Pendant


*sigh* SO FUN!!!! No, for reals. He is a fabulous stamped image from Scrolls Work stamps! I don't know what it is, but he is just fabulous. His demeanor is just so....sooo..... yeah. That.

The thing is...I can't really categorize this one. Would you say this is Steampunk? Hmmmm....not sure. I don't know. Perhaps it doesn't matter, but I love it no matter what it is! HA!

George Pendant Close


I stamped the image on muslin with StazOn ink. I love how even the details show well!

George Pendant (Charm Closeup)


For the charms, well, I basically took out my Tim Holtz (for Advantus) stash and went a little crazy! The circle clips are Close To My Heart, but the pin and the charms are all Tim Holtz! I attached them using a copper wire that I had around.

George Pendant (hanging)


He hangs beautifully! George makes a great decorative pendant, but he is actually small enough, that if I can create the right chain, I could totally wear him as a statement necklace. He's cool like that. I mean, yes, it would be bold and all, but, well...I'm cool like that, I guess. Just say'n. HA!!!!

Soooo....that's what I made last night! What did you make? What do you think of George? And...wait for it... last question...

...aren't you wicked glad that tomorrow is totally Friday? 'Cause I TOTALLY am. Just say'n.

I am joining the following parties:

  4. George is AWESOME!!! What a unique idea to use your stamping with. I love the safety pin...very cool. It would take a bit of patience but I think linked chains of the copper would make a great necklace so you could wear him.

    As always....Jingletastic!!

    Hugs,

  19. George is a great image, he is such a Toff!
    It can be steam Punk if you want it to be, I doubt the SteamPunk police will be knocking on your door for it!
    A Lovely pendant Jingle :-)
