The STAEDTLER and Stampendous teams have been sharing projects all week long made using each other's products and today is the final hop!
Today I am sharing a couple of projects I made.
First, a card I made with another new Hot Air Balloon sets from Stampendous!
First, a card I made with another new Hot Air Balloon sets from Stampendous!
I colored the Balloons with STAEDTLER Aquarell Watercolor pencils.
I love how they turned out!
For my second project I played with some of the Microwave Fimo Clay that STAEDTLER sent me and made a little dish with the Jumbo Sunflower.
First I rolled out the Microwave Fimo Clay.
I inked up the Jumbo Sunflower with Ranger Jet Black Archival Ink and stamped it in the clay.
It looked like this when I lifted the stamp up.
I cut it out with my scissors and set it in a bowl to help keep the edges up.
Then I microwaved it for 10 minutes.
When I was taking it out of the bowl I accidentally broke it. (insert free comercial for Beacon quick grip which left it as good as new).
I embossed the center of the sunflower with Aged Ochre Embossing Enamel and Champagne Glass Glitter from Stampendous. I embossed parts of the petals with Jeweled Gold embossing powder and then used the STAEDTLER Aquarell Watercolor pencils and a water brush to add more color.
Here's a close up view of the bowl.
When I shared my project with my teamie, Lea, she said it would be a great soap dish or even a dish for holding jewelry. She was right! So now it sits by the sink for just that!
I hope you enjoyed today's project...and are enjoying the hop!
