Playing around with Clay

Last week I pulled out some of our new clay and started experiment with it. I wanted to use it differently than just making buttons and flowers using the molds.

I simply took a piece and flattened it between 2 clear BigShot plates (not in the machine!), gently peeled it off and then stamped on it. I rolled the edges up some prior to letting the piece dry.

I sponged the edges after it was completely dry and OK to handle. I adhered it with liquid glue to the card.

The wood grain background came from the Natural Composition Specialty Designer, which I sponged with Chocolate Chip ink…

Next time I might use the silicone sheet on the bottom to make it easier to move the clay after stamping.

  1. Thx for sharing the stamped clay project! Anxious to play with this... I used to love to make stuff with Sculpey clay, but baking stuff left funny smell in the oven, so love to see the air dry stuff!
