Hi
everyone, Lyn Gill here again...Let's have a conversation about...what
else "Conversation Hearts"! A quaint Valentines Tradition, little candy
hearts with a message for your loved one inscribed on the front. So why
not create them in resin?
First I sculpted the hearts out of
Super Sculpey, I made them double sided so I could mold 2 off of each heart.
I
used
Amazing Mold Putty & created molds for each side. I them mixed
up my
Amazing Casting Resin with some
Alumilite Dye in 2 cups(1 red
& 1 pink) & the 3rd I left uncolored, then poured & let
cure. After they cure & were removed I mixed up some
Amazing Clear Cast with some
Alumilite Dye in Red & some red glitter to make the
last 2.
I
used acrylic paint in the lettering with a fine detail brush & the
bowl was created using Cat Kerr's demo from CHA using an embossing
folder &
Amazing Casting Resin formed over a bowl while still
pliable.
What a super cute & fun project!
What Valentine's Day inspiration have you come up with this year?

ReplyDeleteI'm so new, I have bought stuff, I'm just stuck. Seems like you do a lot of molding and I haven't even tried using it yet. Do you mold everything you make?
ReplyDeleteHi Donna, I don't mold everything I make even though I do make molds for many of my components. All my molds are either from creations I sculpted or from found objects, like gears/ wingnuts etc. I'm on the design team for Amazing Casting Products...lol.
