I have been playing again with my clay and have come up with some new creations.
First one is a Suncatcher. I made it out of a translucent clay, cured it and then affixed a dried purple pansy to it. The pansy is out of my own flower garden and was dried for a couple of months. It kept most of it’s original colour! I then coated the sun catcher with two coats of Delta Ceramacoat to ensure the safe keeping of the flower. Here it is

And here is a cute little Sleepy Moon Magnet

Hi Angel!
I use various tools such as a scalpel, paper embossing round tipped tools, the cuticle tool from a manicure set, and rubber tipped tools for sculpting. I also always were surgical vinyl gloves so as not to leave fingerprints.
After curing, I may use sandpaper or the scalpel to remove any jagged edges (if there are any). I will also at times use a mr clean magic eraser.
For the brooches and the suncatcher, I actually used a rolling pin!
I hope this helps you!!
