Creative Paperclay DT call
Good morning crafters...wow can you believe it's October already? I know I can't...but I can tell by looking out my window and watching the leaves turn right before my eyes. I love fall with all the color changes and such, but I'm just not ready for that dreaded you know what...but here I am today showing you how to use your Creative Paperclay to make some snowflake ornaments...hehehe. I've been on the Creative Paperclay DT for 6 months already and today I am reapplying for next term...so here goes:
First I started out with my clay and again using a cookie cutter, I cut the Creative Paperclay out and embossed the snowflake using my cuddlebug folder and just lightly pressed in into the clay as to not distort the shape.

Isn't the detail just wonderful?
I hot glued some beads around one of the snowflakes
after I used an ink pad direct to the snowflake
to give it a pretty purple hue
Then I used some Dimensional ModPodge and added
it to all three snowflakes
See how milky it is right now?
and see how beautiful it is after it dries
While the dimensional Modpodge is still wet
I added some glitter right ontop of the dimensional
and this is the affect you get
Very sparkly
then I also added a few drops of Slade alcohol ink
right onto the dimenstional Modpodge and it
gave this snowflakes this crazy cool affect.
I love experimenting and this was another
one of my favorite projects.
Now remember last week I gave a tutorial on using Creative Paperclay and I also had a giveaway...Well the winner was:

Creative Paperclay
Good morning friends
Today I want to share a project that was super easy and fun involving some more alphabet cookie cutters. As most of you know, I am also a designer over at Creative Paperclay. I love working with it for embellishments for my scrapbooking and cardmaking but this time I used the paper clay to make a sign for Miss Bella's door. I am taking over decorating for her room and everything is coming together black and pink...
I laid out some paper clay to the size I wanted the
sign to be...it measures 2.5 x 9 and then used my
fiskars embossing plates to add some flowers
Then I used my alphabet cookie cutters
to cut out her name
now the centers of the B and A don't depress
enough, so I thought I'd cut heart out in the middle
I used the hole of a mechanical pencil to cut
out the holes for the ribbon to hang
Here are all the pieces dried and ready to paint.
As you can see the holes in the A and B didn't
work, so I changed my mind...
I painted the sign first pink, then black and then
washed a pink over it again. I also painted all the
letters pink and....
highlighted the edges with black
I glued all the letters to the sign, hot glued some lacy
ribbon around the back...glitzed up the letters with
rhinestones and added some bows with the lace.
I also made one stick pin for accent to the top
and added some pink and black ribbon as the hanger
I really love the way it turned out.
So, today I am giving away (1) 8 oz brick of Creative PaperClay. I used half of a brick to make this sign and all the embellishments, so depending on what you want to make, it can last a while. Be sure if you do not use it all at once to put it in an airtight container or it will harden on you as it dries by air. I store mine in ziplock baggies after I've sucked all the air out of it.
So, now to qualify to win this please let me know what you would make with it...have I given you any ideas or do you know of something you'd like to try?
Also, please go to Creative Paperclay FB page and "like" them for a second chance and tell them I sent you and then come back here and tell me that you did that
For a third chance go to the Creative PaperClay blog and become a follower and come back here and tell me you did that
This giveaway ends on October 2nd and I will announce the winner
October 3rd, so please make sure to come back here to see if you have won.

Creative Paperclay Pumpkin and button Embellishments
Good morning friends
Today I want to share a project that was super easy and fun involving some more cookie cutters. As most of you know, I am also a designer over at Creative Paperclay. I love working with it for embellishments for my scrapbooking but this time I used the paper clay to make pumpkins for a wreath.
Here are my step by step instructions, kinda picture heavy.
Just roll you paper clay like usual. The thickness depends
totally on you and how thick you want you embellishment to be.
Then just cut it out with your cookie cutter.
I picked this one up at Michaels in the
Halloween section for $.99
I also cut out some circles that I will turn into buttons.
Now let them dry...again, drying time depends on
the thickness of them. These dried in about 4 hours.
Then I painted them with standard acrylic paints.
I used a stamp with embossing ink to stamp my button
and then embossed it my black embossing powder
just gives it a really cool effect. Now you can
make ANY button to your hearts content.
Then I embellished the pumpkin with google eyes,
cardstock nose and mouth cut with my E-Craft
and some silk leaves just for a more dramatic affect.
Now, what did I do with these cuties?
Now I started with a free frisbee we got at the
sportsman's show at the beginning of summer and
wrapped it with sparkly purple ribbon.
Wreath...
I made some stick pins and added them behind some
silk flowers that I took apart and hot glued to the wreath.
I added some glass tiger eye blobs to the center and
used my new "glitter gelly roll" pen to give accent
to the purple flower petals. Really sparkly!!!
I hot glued 4 pumpkins around the wreath.
and added some Halloween colored
glass ornaments to more of the same
purple ribbon and hot glued one of
my homemade buttons to the center.
Isn't this just neat? Well, I think so anyway. I hope you liked my Creative Paperclay project today and I will see you again in about 2 weeks for another project. I hope I've inspired you to create your own embellishments using some Creative Paperclay. You can purchase Creative Paperclay here or you can even get it at Hobby Lobby or Michaels.
