Feather Pendant Necklace with Embossed Metal and Shell Bead

I had so much fun embossing metal with my Vintaj embossing plates that I decided to make a few more pieces of jewelry. First the feather was glued into a connector cap.  The embossed leaf was then attached to a small jump ring and the shell bead placed on a head pin.  All the findings used were from Ben Franklin Crafts.  A large jump ring was used to attach the feather, shell bead and embossed leaf to the turquoise leather cord.  Finally, a cord connector was crimped onto each end of the leather cord and a clasp attached to one end and the clasp loop fastened to the other side.  With all the pretty feathers and intricate Vintaj embossing  plates available at BFC, I know that YOU can make a piece of jewelry like this with very little effort and time.  Give it a try and don't forget to make a pair of matching earrings like the ones I posted previously.  Have a crafty day!

Very, very cool! Does the metal piece come ready made as a leaf shape or did you have to cut it into that shape?
