Aloha, all!
You’ve all heard about my next door neighbor, Deme, who is the one who made that great quilted bag using the Sizzix Stampin’ Up! Scallop Square Die.
Now Deme is at it again, but this time with Switch Plates! She is just so creative, and loves to try out all different kinds of crafts. Today I’m featuring swtich plates that she made using Stampin’ Up! Wheels and Sculpey Polymer Clay. I found some basic instructions for making the switch plates here.
To make these switch plates, Deme used a pasta machine (as cheap as you can get one, she says) and set it to the thickest setting to make the best thickness for using the wheels. She colored the basic clay a bit with Classic Ink Pads, then applied various colored inks to the wheels and ran them across the switch plates multiple times. Finally, she sprinkled some Iridiscent Ice over everything and baked according to the product instructions. Are these not wonderful?! (Hmmm. I’ve been using "wonderful" a lot lately. I must be having a good time )
Here are the products for each of the switch plates shown here:
- On the left: Fast Flower Wheel, More Mustard Stamp Pad (for the background), Really Rust and Taken With Teal for the wheel.
- On the right: Retro Remix Wheel, Bravo Burgundy Stamp Pad (background), Taken With Teal and Ballet Blue.
I think I may try these myself!! How about you? If you need any wheels, or some of that fabulous Iridiscent Ice embossing powder, just let me know. Or you can order online 24/7 by clicking here and then the Shop Now button in the upper right.!
