Sorry I haven't kept up on my blog, dealing with some medical issues. Anyways, I wanted to share some items I made with the new Clay that's coming out in the new Stampin' Up Catalog. I really enjoy making things with this new clay. It's not like regular clay, when it dries, it almost feels like paper and it's very light. You can do a lot of interesting things with it, dye it before making item, of color it afterwards, stamp it or press a stamp into the clay (or both if you like), use the molds you can buy, use framelits, or simply cut out - while wet or dry. So many different things! You can also use embossing powder, but beware, getting the clay too hot will cause it to balloon up, most of the time I just push them back down quickly and lightly. Here's some of my creations:
Framelit and no ink stamp
Framelit with inked stamp
Barrettes and pendant
Some close ups.
I'll make the supply list when I can add the new items. I can tell you the purple rose was made from Wisteria Wonder and Rich Razzleberry, I wanted it just a little darker purple than the Wisteria Wonder. I also added some Dazzling Diamonds Stampin' Glitter to the barrettes. The butterflies are from the Beautiful Wings Embosslits Die. I used a small rolling pin to flatten out and then put in Embosslit and carefully rolled it with the rolling pin, I wouldn't recommend putting the clay in the Big Shot. That's it for now, hope you enjoy, and hopefully I can get back to doing my blog more often. However, currently taking a lot of medicine that makes me drowsy, hoping the doctors can figure out what's wrong soon.
