What brand of clay did you use?
Kato and Premo.
What colors did you use? If you mixed them yourself you can include a color recipe here if you like.
Not sure. I will make note from now on.
What products did you use? e.g. Lisa Pavelka Crackle Texture Stamp, or Pearlex Antique Copper Mica Powder.
(The more detail the better.)
I used a Darice rose stamping folder
Any special tools that other polymer clayers may be interested in?
I used a cord bangle base from Hobby Lobby for the cuff a silver plated bezel ring blank
Tell us how it went. Was it fun? Easy? Hard? Did you struggle with anything?
Mica shift is always so fun beautiful and magical. I wasn't sure that a folder could make a deep enough impression but it worked perfectly.
Do you have any tips for others trying this technique?
Be creative and think outside the box.
Do you have any ideas for variations on this technique?
Color and impression changes, different kinds of canes. I liked the leaf beacuse it did not have an edge
Anything else you would like to share with us?
My husband bought me a photobox for Christmas to make better photos but haven't set it up yet as you can see! Added the same colored little beads on the earrings making it a dangle when I finished it off.
