Everlasting Candy Hearts
Everlasting Words of Love By Carole Monahan
|
Just like your love, these candy hearts are EVERLASTING !
Makin's Clay® - White - 2 oz., Blue & Red 1 oz.
Makin's®
Clay Cutters - Hearts
Clay Mixing Ruler
Chameleon Marker in red
Instructions:
I used the color mixing ruler to determine
the color recipe for a pastel pink.
I also mixed the red and blue with white to
make the pastel purple.
The clay here is about ½ inch. Use medium heart cutter to cut out a heart from pink and purple clay.
I used my letter stamps about ¼ inch size to
make my words. Stamp it while the clay is still fresh.
But wait a day to let the clay cure before
filling in the letters with your ink.
You could make these faux candy hearts as personal or as “naughty” as you would like!
A
word of caution: make them big enough so as to not be a choking hazards for
little ones that might mistake them for the candy. Or just keep out of their
reach.
Have a wonderful Valentines DAY !

Happy Penguin
| Happy Penguin by Carole Monahan |
Just in time for our 1st snow of
the season! This happy penguin is fun and easy to make.
Materials:
Makin's Clay® - black and white
and a tiny bit of yellow
An
egg shape hollow form
Beacon’s Tacky Glue
Tools:
Makin's Professional®
- Ultimate Clay Machine®
- Professional Clay Tools
Large
round cookie cutter and large heart cutter
Instructions:
Roll out about 2 oz of black clay with the Ultimate Clay Machine® starting on setting #1, then progressing to #2, and ending on setting #3 - you will need enough enough to cover the egg.
Lightly cover egg with tacky glue. Trim
the edges and cover the egg with the black clay and use your sculpting tool
with the large ball tip to smooth any edges.
Roll out the white clay about 1 oz to setting
3. Then cut out a heart shape to make the face.
Use the large round cutter from the trio
cutter set for the base.
Cut out a pie shape piece with your flay
blade from the pro sculpt kit (have I mentioned THIS is my favorite tool set!?)
Attach the notched out disc to the bottom and
the heart shape onto the front.
Use the large ball tool to make eye sockets.
Roll out 2 small black balls of clay for the eyes.
I added a little tiny bit of white to accent the
eyes.
Roll out a small amount of yellow clay. Roll
out one end to come to a point. Cut the tip off using your flat cutter.
Attach the beak and don’t forget to add his
little nose holes so he can breathe.
Don’t forget to give him wings! They fly in
the water so they do need them!
However you celebrate the holidays make it
warm wonderful and hand made with love!
