Stamped and colored Plant Stake
It has been awhile since I last posted. I have been busy planting my gardens, learning more about polymer clay, and having fun with different projects. All of which I will be posting about in the coming weeks.
Here is one such project that has been keeping me busy. I made some for myself, my daughter (who also has a beautiful garden), my new daughter-in-law who hasn’t learned the fine art of relaxation with gardening, but I made a set for her anyway just in case!
I put pictures of the project at the end of the article….so have fun!
Design by Roxane Burkett, Sheryl Eggleston – Stamp Studio
Materials and Tools:
* Premo! Sculpey clay in the following colors:
o Pearl 5101, or White 5100, or Ecru 5093
o NOTE: Any light pastel can be mixed by adding a tiny ball of colored clay to white or pearl clay. This is all a matter of choice!
* Small, medium, or large metal eyelets (available from Stamp Studio)
* Sculpey Super Slicer or craft knife
* Stamp Studio “Sweet Pea” Stamp #E551
o NOTE: Other flower species are available in these plant stake stamps from Stamp Studio.
* Pigment Inkpad in color of choice: you can use black, dark green, olive green, whatever strikes your fancy. Inkpads from Ranger, Tsukinekko, Stewart Superior, Colorbox will all work beautifully. Heatset Re-inkers used with a disposable pad will also work as will Lumiere paints from Jacquard.
* Heat set fabric markers or other permanent, colored markers in colors of choice. Or, assorted Gel pens in flower and foliage colors
