Corrine's Domino-Stampers Anonymous stamp

Domino beads can be used on your cards, scrapbooks, altered books, journals etc.  The domino beads can also be used for wonderful jewelry projects because they are pre-drilled.  Asian dominos or mah jong pieces are also a popular addition to any art project.  The glass like rectangles (glass like tags) are a unique and exciting new line to this page.
 
There are a number of different ways to add something to your domino so you can hang it as a pendant.  You can use the fold over bails- just measure to accomodate the thickness of your domino; screw eyes can be added by drilling a small hole at the top (if they are not already pre-drilled), add a little zap of glue, possibly a flat bead to add some oomph and screw in the screw eye-think about the way you want the screw eye circle to end up either facing front to back or side to side.  You can also use the screw eyes on the bottom to dangle some beads or a charm (jewelry head pins will work too-but you have to glue them in).  You can use something like the Tim Holtz clips too.  You can use a tube bead and adhere to the top of the domino but make sure the tube is large enough to accomodate your ball chain, ribbon, cording, etc.  Use a pin back with bail and you have the option to wear as a pin or hang on a chain.  There are metal tubes you can get at a hardware store.  The copper one I used on one of the sample was acquired at a yard sale in some screws & bolts.

Practical Faux Glass Rectangle Ideas~ Since I like to bead and can never figure out if something is delica seed bead, 11/0 sead bead, etc.  I used the faux glass to mark the type of bead and slid it on a ring and then followed it with the type of bead it named.  Very handy-you could take it with you on bead shopping trips.
Can't keep track of your ink colors, put a small dab on a small rectangle, ink color name and put on a key ring and take with you to your favorite stamp store.

The above domino sheets are geared towards the size of dominos you would find in tins in Walmart or Target (in the games section) but they also work well with the smaller dominos and the medium size dominos I carry.

This is a little business card case I picked up somewhere.  I put the little mosaic stones on it-probably over a year ago, just waiting for the right thing to put in the middle.  These are 3 of the medium size dominos I carry stamped with images from the domino rubber stamp sheets.  I colored in the are they were going to set with blue alcohol ink and then glued them down with Matte Glossy Accents and used it around the perimeter to fill in also.

adom22use.jpg

These are 3 of the gals from the domino rubber stamp sheet.  I think the center one looks like Princess Diana and they are stamped on the medium size dominos I carry.

dom1202use.jpg

This is one of the ladies from sheet #121, and she is 4th from the left on top row-hard to tell.  She is stamped on one of the white dominos that come in the game tins.

Did you happen to notice the interesting touch Sally Lynn achieved by adding some brass angel wings to the domino bracelets?

This domino bracelet was created with the inspiration of a friend, Angela Beavers, who thought these faces, that are found on a cool Rubber Poet rubber stamp, would look great on the dominos.

I added this Staz-on stamped domino to an old jewelry piece.  This is the small domino size.  Since I am unable to get the small drilled dominos anymore, this is a way you can use them and not worry about having the drill holes. 

p3070027use.jpg

This domino isn't the focal piece but it was colored with alcohol inks and I added the moon face charm to it and then attached this copper colored old earring piece over it.  I then added this piece to a 9 panel art tile board (see pic below- and several other places on the web- I liked it!)  The dominos are the focal point on the tile board with 3 white dominos stamped with Staz-on ink.  These are the larger white dominos that you can buy in tins from stores like Walmart.
The Mona Lisa stamp and the "Artist" stamp are from the Tim Holtz Collection- #062 Mini Classics-new for 2009.
