Ocean Currents

Just had to show you my latest pendant.

This technique is called mokume gane. There are many different ways of doing MG, but this particular technique was shared with me by the wonderful Linda of NK Designs, please check out her blog, the link is on the right in the list of my favourite blogs.

She sent me the tutorial last night, and I couldn't wait to have a go at it. I am so happy with the way this turned out and of course it is in my favourite shades of teal and green. Mind you I did do some pink ones as well! I will post those on flickr later today I hope.

So just a huge thank you to Linda - what a great artist and a great friend. Please check out the link and have a look at hers, they are amazing!

Another gorgeous pendant :)
I'd adore to learn this technique for my silver clay infils, the "ice cream swirls" are fabulous!

Absolutely gorgeous! I don't think there's anything in poly clay you can't master :)

Aww Liz - you say the nicest things! It is all down to Linda's fab Tutorial though - nothing to do with me!
