Altered Dominos


A couple of weeks ago I was grocery shopping and found a huge box of dominoes on clearance for about $2.00. I think there are 90+ dominoes in that box! Being the clearance rack shopper that I am and adding that I love to alter things, into my cart they went. I decided to make these little butterfly pins first. After sanding them a little, I added color by using my Copic refills B12, V12 and RV02. When the color was dry I used this small butterfly stamp from Studio G and stamped the image using Staz On ink. Pretty quick and easy and I am happy with them. I am sure you will be seeing more domino projects in the future!

Altered Dominos

I decided to try something that I have been seeing a lot of lately. My altered dominos will be made into magnets. I would love to make some into necklaces but other than drilling holes through them, I don't know how to do that. I have seen them done others done with a clasp type thing but I am not sure what it is I need to be looking for.  If anyone knows, I would love it if you would leave me the info in the comments. 

The first three are all done with Ranger alcohol inks and then were stamped with black Staz On and then I went around the edge with a gold pen. The stamp set is from Clear Dollar Stamps. The second was done using Copic refill (B01) and the pearl additive from the Ranger line. After I got it the color I wanted it, I embossed it with white embossing powder and edges it with the silver pen. The snowman is from a Studio G set. 

Isn't this sweet? My hubby brought it home to me the other day. I love fresh pineapple!
