I have created a necklace and card combination for my own Mama using Close To My Heart Base & Bling products and stamps.

The card is simple. Just stamped flowers onto a 2 x 4 1/4 inch strip of paper and then colored in with water color pencils. Then I fussy cut around the edges of the flowers. I stamped the sentiment onto the card base and then using 3D foam tape popped up the flowers on top of and underneath the sentiment.

The necklace is a sticker from one of the sticker sheets and two charms. I used Liquid Glass to adhere the glass cover to the pendant. Sometimes with liquid glass you get a bubble and I tried not to but you can see in the photo below that did not work. However, I really like the way it turned out after a friend pointed out to me that it looks like a shadow of a bird. I choose these pieces for the necklace based on a favorite song "I'll Fly Away". There is a line in the song that says "Like a bird from prison bars has flown I'll fly away".
