First print out the image from your computer

Cut out the image

Roll out your polymer clay flat about 1/4 inch thick
Place the cut out image on top of your flattened clay
Using the paper image as a stencil, carefully cut it out of the clay with the xacto knife
Remove the paper stencil and smooth out any rough edges
Make a small hole at the top for the jump ring to go through

Bake for about 30 minutes
After it has cooled off, apply about 3 layers of the clear glossy varnish to the front and sides
After the varnish dries, add the jump ring and necklace chain
If you want, glue on some pyramid studs to fancy it up
