ANGELS WITH MAKINS CLAY

Hello dear friends, Martha Lucia here with you. Today I want to share some Angels for the Christmas season that I made using Makin’s Clay® white with die cuts and applying one easy texture technique that you can find on our Pinterest board HERE. Let me share with you how I made my version:
Product List:

Circle and Heart Die Cut. Crochet Doily, Tattered Angel Glimmer Mist

ANGELS WITH MAKINS CLAY
Instructions:
Take a small amount of white clay and smooth it with your hands to create an uniform ball. Create a thin layer of clay using the roller. The size of the layer depends on the size of the circle die cut that you want to use or the size of your angel. I used a 3″ diameter circle.

Place the circle die cut over the layer of the clay and cut around using the cutter tool. I used a cross stitched die cut from Gina Marie Designs to impress a special design on the border.

Now it is time to apply an easy and simple texture technique using crochet doily.  Just turn over the clay circle and place the doily over the circle and press over it. With more force, more texture so make sure you don’t lose the original form.

Create a “semi” cone with the circle leaving a tiny space on top to put the head of the angel.

Now create other layer of white clay to make the wings. For these you will use a heart die cut. Just cut the form using the cutter tool.

Paste the heart behind of the cone with a few drops of water.

With a little small amount of white clay create a ball and paste on top of the cone with a few drops of water. If you want you can create at the same time the halo and paste it behind the head.

Now that your angel is ready, you can decide if you want to keep it white or if you want to add a few touches of color. I am here to show you the difference.

I added some shimmer to one of mine using Glimmer Mist Poppy Pink from Tattered Angels.
