Daydreaming Tag Featuring Creative Paperclay®

Hi Friends:  When using molds with your Creative Paperclay®, do you ever accidentally break pieces off the embellishment when removing it from the mold?  It happens to me more than I like, but I NEVER throw those pieces away.  Even if they're too intricate or broken to glue back together, the pieces can always be used in creative ways on your projects.

Here are some broken pieces from an IOD mould - it's a mess:

I used these pieces to create a mixed media tag that shows one way to use them to create a beautiful project and no one would ever know that the pieces weren't meant to go that way.

Here's a quick video tutorial showing how I created the tag and used the broken pieces of that IOD mould:

Jess B's - Flowers are Blooming

Hello Everyone

I wanted to bring some vibrant colors

to cheer up spirits

as we are still in the winter season

Nana is doing better

sitting up, walking, and eating!

Just all around good :o)

I have been fascinated by

mixed media and all the textures that

can bring decor to life

I feel a shift in my creativity

I used Creative Paperclay®, heart cookie cutters, flourish clear stamp, and a candy bowl

to create the flower shap.  Bake according to the instructions.

I a long canvas that I pulled out bring acrylic paints and 

used an old hotel card to combine the paints

Adirondack Color Wash, 

Lindy's Stamp Gang Sprays - Flat Fabios

 Dylusion Sprays

Tattered Angel Notes from Garden with StazOn Olive Green Ink

Added sequins to the center of the flowers

 

I had some foam stamps and decided to write the words in Spanish

IMAGINAR - IMAGINE

CREER - BELIEVE

SER - BE

Thanks for stopping by
see you in a couple of weeks

Jess B's - Under the Sea

Hello Everyone,

Can you tell I want to be somewhere warm

Heck I always want to be somewhere warmer than the 

mid west

I always tell my mom that she had me in the 

wrong month (November) and in the wrong country

I am not a fan of cold weather 

but this is where we are

The sea is full of rich

intense bright colors

that we can only try to mimic

INSPIRATION

UNDER THE SEA

Wooden heart 

I painted gesso on the entire heart for color spraying later

  wanted wall piece to be 3-dimension

I rolled balls of Creative Paperclay®, flattened and curved each piece
with finger to look like a sea coral bed
 not the best rendition but it works

 Baked Creative Paperclay® and sprayed with

Adirondack - Color Wash - Stream

Lindy's Stamp Gang - Flat Fabio - Ocean Breeze Blue & Aloha Avocado

Tattered Angels - Iridescent Gold

I streamed hot glue on the edge or heart

and sprayed Steam and Iridescent Gold 

Pounced gold pigment gold to make the textured hot glue pop

thanks for stopping by

see you soon
