Heart-A-Week for 8/7/11

I need more earrings in my Etsy Shop so this week for my heart-a-week project I'm making a couple of pairs of earrings. I started out by making an earring blank out of cardstock and traced two pairs onto sticker paper. I cut out the sticker paper and stick it to my 24 gauge sheet metal.



Here are the hearts all cut out and drilled with holes for the earring wire. 


Plain hearts are boring, so I'm adding polymer clay flowers to the hearts. Purple roses for the bronze earrings.


And tiny yellow sunflowers for the silver earrings.



Earrings are baked to set the clay, and wires are added. These were fun to make, and I may make a few more pairs for the Etsy shop this coming week.
