Necklaces finished

 Real Butterfly wing encased in doming resin.  Fun project !  My friend gave me a dead butterfly.  I knew I'd find a  use for it.   Now it can live on rather than turning to dust.

Try this at Home

  I have found that it is easier to print out  the exact size you need and then trim. -Especially when you've ordered design sheets specifically for the occasion. Photo paper works well  to detail the image and hold good color. I originally used Aleen's Laminate It to affix the cutout to the charms, but it causes the ink to bleed. I will have to try modgepodge for gluing and sealing.
