Artist Cheryl Rauchke
 These earrings were designed by cutting shapes, and then the sterling is patterned with frog tape, sent through a metal roller for texture, and then punched, polished, and cleaned for shine.  The gold is cut to shape, and then an Adobe Illustrator design is created on a computer and sent to a laser printer for a paper pattern. The pattern and the metal are sent through a roller to emboss the metal and add some texture to the paper. The metal is hand-polished and then engraved with my initials.
