KLIK It, KLIK it Good!

Klik Interchangeable Jewelry from Metal Complex is a fantastic new line of DIY accessory options. With two snap sizes and dozens of settings to snap your creations into, this terrific product is fun to play with for every level of crafter. There are tons of pre-made snaps so you can just “klik and go” to change up your look. But this week we’re playing with the Metal Complex Snap Bezel Blanks so we can craft our own masterpieces of wearable art.  Here’s what I’ve created:

Here’s what I used to create my project:

Stampendous® Blossom Bunch Rubber Stamp

Stampendous® Eclectic Charms Perfectly Clear™ Stamp Set

Stampendous® Hot Lime Color Fragments

Stampendous® Lavender Micro Glitter

Stampendous® Silver Crushed Glass Glitter

Stampendous® Mixed Media White Paper

Memento™ Tuxedo Black Ink by Tsukineko®

Metal Complex™ Klik Triple Round Pendant with Crystals

Metal Complex™ Klik Large Snap Base with Bezel

Metal Complex™ Klik Small Snap Base with Bezel

ETI Jewelry Resin

Copic® Markers BV01, BV02, BV04

Liquitex® Cadmium Yellow Medium Hue Acrylic Soft Body Paint

DecoArt® DecoPage

May Arts Ribbon

Here’s what I did to create my project:

Stamp images with black ink on white paper and color with markers

Cut out flowers and add a small dot of yellow paint in the the center of each flower

Mix glitters and fragments together

Coat each side of flower with DecoPage to seal it, set aside to dry

Coat bottom of each bezel with a coat of DecoPage and sprinkle on mixture of glitters and fragments

Mix your resin, be sure to pay close attention to directions

Once mixed, start adding resin over glitter and fragments

Gently add in flowers as shown and continue to add resin

Allow resin to cure for a minimum of 24 hours

Once resin has cured, snap bezels to pendant piece and add ribbon

You can see all the wonderful Klik products and tons of ideas for creating with this super fun product in their flippy catalog HERE and you can find a retailer HERE. We’d like to recommend www.resinobsession.com because they carry Stampendous products as well!

To make our wonderful Klik jewelry pieces we used products by Environmental Technology, Inc. (ETI) who generously sent our team some of their wonderful Jewelry Resin. This two part resin is incredibly easy to use and creates fantastic, professional results. We love using it here on the Stampendous Design Team. This great resin is sold at Resin Obsession, but you can also find it at Michaels and other fine craft stores. You can get thousands of ideas for using resin to create your own pieces on the resincrafts blog or on the I Love Resin blog.
