Fossils & Ammonites | Creating Focal Polymer Clay Beads
Ammonites first appeared about 240 million years ago and were predatory, squid-like creatures that lived inside coil-shaped shells.
Did you know that a group of ammonites was called a “school” (just like fish) and that female ammonites grew up to 400% larger than males? (probably to make room to lay eggs)…
Although they went extinct with the dinosaurs 65 million years ago we can still enjoy their beautiful shape and form in our focal polymer clay beads thanks to stamps, chalk pastels, transfers and other fun techniques!
In my recent studio time I played with Tonja’s Treasures stamps along with my “Cosmic Ceramic – Round About” beads class. They are a perfect match!
The focal beads were created in various sizes to match my future polymer-macrame jewellery. Most of them were round (which is the easiest shape to wrap with cords) and were decorated with chalk pastels and clear resin as a top shiny coat (The full technique is well explained in the PDF and video tutorial).
Want to give it a try? You can use any stamp you have! Yes! https://www.polypediaonlineexpress.com/product/cosmic-ceramic-polymer-clay-tutorial-faux-ceramic-round-about-beads-ceramic-blossom-let-the-thousand-flowers-beads-ebookvideos/
Here is a link to my “INKredible Macrame” series in case you want to get your hands in macrame knotting – Only several knots and you master the whole idea! https://www.polypediaonlineexpress.com/product-category/technique/micro-macrame-pattern/

Have you ever wanted to create quick patterns using stencils? Lupe Meter, one of my students, took my stencils freebie and made a whole new parade of beads! Aren’t they fabulous?
Stencils are the “low cost” version of silk screens. You can use them with paints, chalks, sprays, inks; You can use brushes, sponges or even your fingers! Their holes/patterns are large enough so they will not get clogged or blocked with paint, they can easily be cleaned with baby wipe or water and some of them have an adhesive back so you can also use them on other surfaces such as paper, metal, glass, ceramic, wood and polymer of course!
When I use stencils, I personally prefer to neutralise their adhesive back using cornstarch. This way I can handle their positioning easily and lift and re-arrange them on my clay sheet if necessary.
To neutralise the adhesive back I use a small fabric bag filled with cornstarch and punch the stickiness away. you can use an old sock with no 2nd partner or a disposable fabric wrapped in a rubber band as the cornstarch holder. The cornstarch prevents the stencil from sticking to the clay. This usually works for 4-5 uses and after that I repeat the “corn starching”.
I use my stencils in many of my classes including the INKredible 2 & the Cosmic Ceramic “Time for Tea” & “Xiang Incense sticks” class.
Here is a free video to learn how to use stencils on polymer clay as faux silk screen sheets creating beautiful fabric patterns – In this express tutorial we will create funky cool and colorful earrings using stencils as patterns, chalks or soft pastels and embossing powder to mix in our clay.
For the projects we will need — * Embossing powders in all kind of colors, textures or patterns; * Stencils; * Cutters (earring shapes); * Soft pastels / chalks;

Stencils are a great and easy way to decorate and enhance your artwork and create eye-catching patterns onto your polymer clay, textile, wood made, glass, card-making, interior decorating, or one of your mixed media designs.

New FREE polymer clay tutorial – “Billowed-Screened” technique project! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As a part of Polyform company contributing online artists team, I was requested to share a fun technique to be published online. The only request was: “Please use Sculpey III clay.”
Being a newbie with this brand of clay (never touched it before) I immediately started playing with it, checking its characteristics.
Silk screens are also new to me. Ever since I got my sample kit from Polyform my fingers were tickling to try them out.
After several tries, a new project was born combining both – silk screens are Sculpey III clay. A decorative utensil holder.
This project can be adapted into endless other uses – other holders (studio tools, makeup brushes) or even large statement jewelry such as bracelets!
