Default Making butterflies

I had been playing around with presets and stained glass and then ran into someone who had apparently used the same idea with gems, so I tried it. Here is one I made using a butterflip preset type font and some gems that I had that are tubes.:

Oh, that's very pretty! I could see that as a piece of actual jewlery. Do an angel!

Let me see if I have an angel. To make a preset, I have to have it as a font first. Liz

I found one in my stash...right now, I'm sorting thru the gems to make it easier to use what I have. Some are in bunches and I don't like that so I am *breaking* those tubes up into singles. Liz

I may have forgotten to do the inner bevel. But does that angel work? Liz

Very cool! Now what would be cool would be to do that in PMC (precious metal clay) and make it an actual piece of jewelery. Think that'd look cool?

Have to use fake gemstones of course, but I think it'd look neat, only problem is that to work with PMC you need a kiln, can't use a regular oven.
