I haven't had much time for crafting lately & things were starting to get on top of me a bit but I wanted to make something for this week's Sentimental Sundays challenge & I wanted it to be different but it also had to be quick - well this was the plan! I spent hours yesterday fiddling about with shrink plastic, first it was the wrong dimensions (though in the end I had to go with this one), then it just didn't look right & finally when I thought I was nearly there the Modge podge was too thick & made all the ink run :o( So I went back to the first attempt though it wasn't quite right - (the image was printed onto printable shrink plastic), I coloured it with pencils, stamped on the back & punched a hole for the jump ring (this is done before shrinking). Then I covered it with Modge Podge & added a sprinkling of Glamour Dust. Our challenge is "Add a Doodle to it" & we are sponsored by the wonderful Scribbles Designs & I used Flower Doodle 6. I hope you can find time to join us. Happy Mother's Day to all those who are celebrating today :o) I'm spending the morning with youngest son & then at the MIL for dinner tonight.

This is so cute, Tracey! I love/hate shrink plastic. It can be so temperamental! :) Great picture of the sparkle!
A very pretty pendant as a result of staying with it. Love the colours and the wording on the back. When you want a 5 min job to take 5 mins they just never do!! Thank you for joining in at Craft My Life Challenge. Hugs Mrs A. (DT).

This is quite beautiful! Love the sparkles. I never thought to modpodge after shrinking. I like the effect!
