Fluttering Butterfly Pendant

Fluttering Butterfly Pendant

I love experimenting with different mediums with polymer clay... and this Fluttering Butterfly Pendant is a result of one of my experiments...

Made from Makin’s Clay®, a butterfly stamp, layers of different but complementary Jim Holtz Alcohol Inks colours, and for a bit of shimmer from Lumiere by Jacquard Metallic paint. I created this sort of water colour effect pendant.

Stamps, Alcohol inks and the Lumiere paints can be used for a number of projects, which I found valuable, especially if you have a tight budget and you have a number of craft hobbies... I can use these mediums in mix media, scrapbooking and polymer clay... (and I am sure in a lot more projects than I listed).

Below are some photos of the progress of this pendant...
