Simply Adorned Swap, Part 1

Today's post is about the first of two inserts I made for the swap I participated in. This insert is for the necklace charm. Below are pictures of the front (tree) and the back (flower). Yes, you can decorate the back of the charms! Isn't that great? I do a little more elaborate front and then put less on the back. The space between the back glass and the front beveled glass on the charms is enough to add in some dimension and embellishments. You can see that I added in some of the mini brads. Because there is only one layer (don't stick the brad through the paper!), I cut the legs off the brads with my craft scissors and applied the brad with mini glue dots. I think it turned out cute! I've added the supply list below. Have a good day and a beautiful Easter weekend.

Heather, the charms are so great. I remember using that tree on a card we made. That is incredible how you used it on the charm and added the brads to it. You are Wonder Woman!
