BAW52/12

This one didn't turn out exactly as I envisioned, but it was a fun experiment and I got to play with my riveting tool.

 continuing with the brooch-a-week project, here is #5.  another layered window design, using 4 

different recycled gift cards and fine silver rivets

 and #6, another layered window design, using 2 different recycled gift cards and fine silver rivets.  this one dangles from a silver ring.  shown here on a sweater.

shown off the sweater....also my photo for the day :)

BAW52/3

my third brooch of the week is sort of part of a set including the first two. this one also has a recycled gift card panel, but with this one i created a collage with slivers of cards before placing it in the 'window'.

#16

some of you may remember when i participated in ring-a-week 2011.  for 2013, i joined the brooch-a-week group on flickr.  i got a weeeee bit of a slow start.  i just now posted my first brooch for week one!  oh well, better late than never.  so my BAW52/1 is the brooch on the far right.  the other two will get posted in the next couple of days.  all three are layers of recycled gift cards, sterling silver and fine silver rivets.
