This week on Everyday Creative we take Ice Resin a step further and
create custom gems for crafting. These beautiful gems can be used in any
type of crafting from paper crafting (card making,China Linen Flowers Offers scrapbooking, altered arts) to home decor, fashion to mixed media art.China Leather Flowers Wholesalers These beauties can be used for ANYTHING!
Here
is a beautiful close up of the gem that centers this organza flower...
it is awesome to customize your gems any color you desire!
In
this project, the resin gem sits comfortably in a beautiful flower as
its center. This hair piece can easily be used as a broach or even as a
scarf or purse accent.
And of course in order to customize your
Ice Resin... you need some pretty cool products to do so. To color your
resin, you will want items that have a similar base to Ice Resin. Since
Ice Resin is an oil base, a natural mixer would be oil paint to colorize
your resin. You don't always have to use like bases, but it does help
to make it easier for the products to mix (something I learned from my
friend Jen Cushman).
If you really want to get creative... here are a few of MY favorites to colorize and customize Ice Resin.
Clearsnap
makes an selection of products that you may not even have thought of to
colorize your resin or art materials. One of my favorite techniquesChina Hair Bands Crochet Offers
is to use their re-inkers to create varying effects. They also make an
amazing arrangements of glitters and accent pigments that are a ton of
fun as well.
First up is the Clearsnap Archival Dye Ink Refill.
This product is used traditionally to re-ink your ink pads... but it is
good for so many other uses. When mixed with Resin, it offers a
beautiful transparent effect that you can see through. This gives the
effect of a semi-precious stone or jewel.
