Create an Easy Marbleized Charm

Create an easy marbleized charm using just a few supplies.

Everything in south Louisiana oozes purple and gold (LSU), so this is a team spirit elegant charm.

















Materials:
Memory charm holder
Microscope slides
3d Crystal Lacquer
Terri Sproul Mixers, variety of colors


Directions:

Take two microscope slides and squirt a nice amount of 3d Crystal Lacquer on the surface of the slides.

I used purple and gold mixers and sprinkled them on the surface of the lacquer. You can use a toothpick to slightly mix the colors together. Don't mix too much because your colors will blend, we just want a marbled effect.

The gold almost looks like gold leaf it is so rich!

I even pressed the slides together ( lacquered sides together) and press. This marbles the design even more. When you pull them apart, sit them lacquered side up to dry.





Once dry, place slide inside the Memory Charm holder and you are good to go!


The mixers produce a translucent marbled effect. You can still see through the glass, so if you wished you could place an image or scrapbook paper behind it. I like the simple look of the shimmering marbled colors; very opulent.

   Step 3

3. Using Sakura 3D Crystal Laquer, cover back of glass with laquer and press the image face down on the glass. Use a qtip or something else smooth to burnish the image down. You can look through the glass side to see where any air bubble may be. Let dry.
4. Use the 1" paper punch to punch out a circle from the Metal Flashing Tape (this is bought at the hardware store). Also cut a strip of tape wide and long enough to wrap around the edge.
5. Place the metal tape on the back of your glass. This is will be a faux metal back. Place the tape around the edge only slightly overlapping on the front.
6. Burnish edges down
7. Glue on bail using the 3D Laquer.
