Welcome back for another Artist Project Swap with Jennifer and Kyriakos. For the Month of May, we challenged our artists to exchange tutorials and create each other’s designs in order to see how each of our artists interprets style and choices. The receiving artist did not know who designed the project, nor did they receive any images! In today’s post, Kyriakos writes the directions and recommended supplies list and Jennifer created the project.
Not-So-Heavy Metals by Jennifer Vanderbeek
This month, we Artists swapped projects and I got to make this awesome necklace and earring set with SHEET Metal ovals and StazOn ink from directions by Kyriakos. This necklace and earrings set were so fun and easy to make and I’m sure it’ll be just as fun to wear.

Where tutorial/instructions for making this jewelry? What kind of metal did you use and how did you cut it? I would like to try this technique using my cutting dies but don’t want to ruin my dies on the wrong kind of metal!
Thanks for the question Kathy! We shared the link for the Sheet Metal above.. its not industrial sheet metal but our own product that is made for crafting. It is able to go through the die machines easily and it comes in all sorts of sizes. https://www.imaginecrafts.com/sheet-metal/no-view/1820
Thank you for your very quick response!
