Stampendous! and DIY Bangles Blog Hop!

It's time for the Stampendous! and DIY Bangles Blog Hop!!! I have created a fun Santa pendant to share with you today using one of the simple tube beads from DIY Bangles. I used several layers of Snow and Ruby embossing powder on the bead, overheating just a bit to achieve a vintage look. I then used Scor-Tape to adhere flock and glitter to create a Santa look on my bead! A bit of May Arts twine finishes off the pendant, making it a fun holiday necklace!

    I love this! It reminds me of how my father used to carve Santa faces on eggs and paint them. One year, my husband told him that wasn't Santa, because he didn't have a belt. The next year, my father carved an egg with only a belt and buckle and no face and gave it to my husband for Christmas. It was painted red with a black belt and gold buckle. It's now many years later, and we still hang that precious "Santa"!
