An Altered 1800's Dictionary

Hello Amazing Mold Putty fans!  Jan here with an 1800's Dictionary...altered, of course :)  The pages in the book have become very brittle and tear easily so I thought if I'd glue several together, it would make it a little more sturdy.  I guess if I were over a hundred years old, I'd be brittle, too!  The sweet vintage images are Crafty Secrets and I made a mold of a mini door plate and knob. Amazing Mold Putty really is amazing!! Added lots of Glimmer Glam and Glimmer Mist.  I've added some Basically Bare and Prima shapes.
The fancy swirls has been molded and cast with Amazing Mold Putty.

How to Make a Stamp Using an Embossing Folder and Amazing Mold Putty

So today we're going to make some back ground stamps....
Are ya ready?

 First, gather your supplies...
Embossing folder or embossing plate, rubber brayer, Amazing Mold Putty, and scissors.
 Grab a blob of each A & B...make sure they are the same size (don't worry, you can eye-ball it!!). If you want your stamp to be the size of the embossing folder, you'll need to use more putty than I did.
 Squish parts A & B together until no swirls of either color show. 
 See, no swirls!
 Put your mixed Mold Putty on the table (I always work on a Ranger craft sheet), 
and flatten it out with the brayer.
 Stick your flattened Mold Putty on the open embossing folder, 
and GENTLY squish it down with your fingers.
 Turn folder over and look to see that the Mold Putty is down in the design... If not, or if there's lots of bubbles, GENTLY squish it down a little more. If it's good, give it a LIGHT roll over with the brayer.
 Let sit for about 5 minutes and remove from embossing folder.
 Since you're using a thin sheet of Mold Putty, it will set FAST!!!
 Trim with scissors.
 Here's a polka-dot one! I love this, and it is going into my art journaling supply box!!
 YEAH!

 Ink up your rubbery stamp.
Flip stamp over, and very gently run a brayer across it.

HOW COOL IS THAT!??! :)

And here's your wiener of the day...

Have a great day!!

Molded Charms


Hi Everyone, it's Lori and I'm super excited to share with you an easy tutorial on creating 3-D charms for your cards, layouts or anything.  Let's jump right in.


I found a button that had a great design to it, but I wasn't wild about the colors...no problem let's just mold it.  Remember just mix equal parts of the putty and you'll have a mold in no time.


Once the putty was mixed up and ready use I pushed the button down into the AMAZING MOLD PUTTY and left it to set up.


I used Paperclay molding material for my charms...and it works great with the molds.  I just formed a ball and pressed down into the mold, let it set for a bit and then removed from the mold to dry the rest
of the way. 

 

I sprayed the finished charms with Glimmer Mist and then highlighted with some smooch for the finished result and then added to my card....how easy was that, Plus I have the mold to make more of these adorable charms in the future.


I hope you enjoyed this easy tutorial and we'd love to see what beautiful creations you can come up with...THE SKIES THE LIMIT.

Hugs,
