DEBORAHREAD.COM: May - Give-A-Way is here

MAY GIVE-A-WAY IS NOW CLOSED

THE WINNER IS : BEADHEN -

Yes I braved the rain and cold and visited the studio and picked out something for this months give-a-way

Here it is - an etched and dapped copper zentangle pendant with a dichroic glass center

Its approximately 1-3/4" in diameter - I etched using the staz-on-stamp and using my zentangle rubber stamps for the design I etched it in ferric chloride , cleaned and then cut a center circle and then dapped the circle to give it some depth. I soldered a back to hold the dichroic glass which I set with clear resin . and the copper is sealed with a clear resin.

Rules

Same rules as before - just make a comment here on this thread and I will pull a name at random on the 1st of June

No cost to you and I ship anywhere in the world

You dont have to be a follower - but still looking to round up my followers this year to 150

almost there

Hopefully as the weather gets better I"ll have some step by steps posted and of course there is the Bead soup coming up in May

June - I'll probably do another give a way

As always I typically do not repsond to the comments so I can make sure that I dont mix any up or leave anyone out so I thank you in advice for participating

Beautifully textured pattern. The use of red, black, and orange draw your eye to the center, reminds me of a hot coal at a great summer bonfire - beautiful piece!. I was not familiar with your work before - glad I stopped by!

What a great idea to set the glass with resin and the seal should keep the copper nice and bright. Lovely design, thanks for sharing.
