Tereza Šťastná I have been working since my childhood and I have tried many art and handicraft activities. In 2010 I first got to know polymer clay which fascinated me with its possibilities. I have attended several courses of Czech and foreign artists that inspire my work. Creation brings me joy and relaxation from everyday worries. www.fler.cz/fimule
Condition scrap of approx. 2 pieces, run through the pasta machine on widest setting, place a raspberry leaf, so that the surface with veins touches the clay and run through the pasta machine on the widest setting, remove the leaf, bake the slice at 110°C for 30 minutes. This is how we create the texture of the leaf.
Condition the white clay approx. 2 pieces, run through the pasta machine on widest setting, place a raspberry leaf, so that the surface with veins touches the clay and run through the pasta machine on the widest setting, remove the leaf. Prepare PanPastels and color the sheet with the applicator.
Once again, condition the white clay approx. 2 pieces, run through the pasta machine on widest setting, imprint the baked and cooled leaf texture (dust the texture with starch so that it does not stick to the raw material). Color using PanPastel and an applicator.
Cut both leaves along the central vein and swap halves.
Cut the shape of a leaf with a cutter, cut the inside part with a scalpel. Smooth the edges with a round stylus. Bake at 110 °C for 20 minutes.
Coat the baked cold leaves and LC Microstensils with liquid transparent polymer (for example, LC Glassymer Transparent). Bake at 130°C for 10 minutes.
Mix two parts of brown and one part of black clay, run through the pasta machine on the second widest setting and texture it. Put the leaf on the sheet and cut it out inside and outside with a scalpel.
Remove the leaf, cut out the LC Mikrostensils and place it on the “window”. Apply Poly Pasta to the brown sheet, slightly squeeze and clean with a scalpel.
Apply a brooch bridge, place a small sheet of brown clay over it and texture. Bake at 110130°C for 30 minutes. Good luck!
LC MICRO STENCILS LC Microstencils are thin patterns made of heat-resistant cardboard which you can integrate into 3D project, you can draw on it a simple color plan using LC GLASSYMER, fill the empty gaps with different colors. These stencils are heat-resistant and were designed for a very efficient, yet simple decorating of polymer clay. FEATURES: • Heat-resistant • Patterns can be cured in an oven with polymer clay. • Can be used only once (integrated into a project) or reused several times times. • May be rolled, cut, glued, painted, backed. • Dozens of different patterns available for every taste.
• Can be used in dozens of different projects - from making impressions and backfilling to creating complex 3D pieces with stained glass technique. • Material: Heat resistant cardboard. Paper pattern weight 250g/m2. • Panel size 80 mm (3.12” x 3.12”) Pattern size 35 mm (1.37” x 1.37”)
