Designer Tip: You can vary how dark or light the alcohol ink is by how you apply it (directly or with an applicator), how many layers of ink you apply, or how much blending solution you use. A liquid layer of alcohol ink takes several hours to dry, but will be the most opaque.

Supplies:

• Supplies
• Citrus, Sailboat & Watermelon Alcohol Ink Set
• StazOn Metallic Silver Ink Pad
• Silver Design With Pearls & Clear Stones
• 1⅞"x1⅞" Glass Tiles
• Crystal Lacquer
• Silver Heart Jewelry Bails
• Satin Cord Necklaces
• Craft Sheet
• Cosmetic wedge

Instructions:

1. Place the tile back side up on your craft sheet. Drop several drops of Sailboat Blue alcohol ink onto the tile and spread it around until the ink fills the surface. Let dry for several hours. It looks best when it dries unevenly and has a slightly mottled look to it.
2. Once dry, apply a thin coat of silver StazOn® using a cosmetic wedge and let dry. Attach a bail at the top with crystal lacquer and let dry completely.
3. Place the Swirl Crystal on the front of the pendant
4. String the satin cord through the pendant to complete your necklace.
