Steampunk Art

Hello, I have been busy playing with that Ultra Tick Embossing Enamel(UTEE) again. This time I printed directly in it with the rubber stamp. Look at the results! Truly amazing!

Now it's time to show you how I made this:

Blank Page Muse Stamp used is: Cogs & Gears Steampunk Background Rubber Stamp

Other supplies used are:

• Black UTEE
• Pebeo Patinating Wax - King Gold
• black and silver cardstock
• Golden Heavy Gel

Begin by melting the UTEE. While that is melting, completely cover your rubber stamp with VersaMark Watermark Ink. This will prevent the UTEE from sticking to the stamp so it is very important that you cover it properly!

Pour the melted UTEE on a heat proof, non stick craft mat and immediately press your rubber stamp in it.

Remove the stamp and allow to cool.

Now color it any way you choose. I used Pebeo Patinating Wax in King Gold. Other options would be metallic paint, Gelatos or Distress Crayons. Anything that is very pigmented would do.

Mount it on cardstock using Golden Heavy Gel.

Your are done! Look at that beautiful masterpiece!

A Beautiful Pendant for Mothers Day

Hello, I love to experiment and find new ways to use art supplies I already have. This week I was experimenting with embossing powder. Did you know that you can use it to make jewelry? You sure can and I will show you how in a few simple steps. I use a Melting Pot by Ranger but if you don't have one use a heat safe dish and a heat gun to melt it. Be careful not to burn yourself!

The stamp I used for this project is from:

  Dandelion Wishes with Butterflies Art Rubber Stamp Sheet by Terri Sproul

Other supplies used are:

Tissue paper

Black Versafine Pigment Ink Pad

Prismacolor Pigment Markers

UTEE - Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel

Melt Pot

Mold for your pendant

Prepared mold for your pendant

Gold Leaf adhesive

Gold Leaf flakes

Eye pin

Jump ring

Cord or chain to hang your pendant

Step 1: Stamp the butterfly on tissue paper and dry thoroughly. Color with your waterproof markers.

Step 2: Melt the UTEE.

Step 3: Pour a little UTEE into the mold. Place your butterfly inside the mold and add more UTEE to the mold. If you have bubbles just heat with a heat gun. Pop out of the mold when cool.

Step 4: Coat the back with Gold Leaf adhesive and allow to dry until clear but tacky. Stick on the Gold Leaf flakes and leave to dry. When dry gently rub off the excess.

Step 5: Screw in the eye pin and attach a jump ring. 

Thread through a cord or chain and you are ready to go.
