All images used in the following pendants were cut from Collage sheets printed by Alpha Stamps, which fit perfectly into Nunn Design pendants.  Look for craft punches that also fit the pendants exactly to make these projects super simple and foolproof.  You can generate your own wording on your computer or use words from the word collage sheet.  Birds Collage sheets are available where Nunn Design Pendants are sold.  Doming pendants with EasyCast epoxy magnifies the image, brightens colors and ads depth that only a two-component epoxy can do.  Preferred by professionals for its easy of use, fast & easy bubble release, water-clear clarity and high doming capabilities.  EasyCast is a low odor, solvent free, non-shrinking formula available at leading craft and art stores!
