Winter Banner

Winter Banner by Irit Shalom

Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to my new Makin's Clay® tutorial. This time I decided to make a mixed-media Winter banner.

Materials:

Makin's Clay® - Black and White
Makin's®

Roller & Cutter Set
Push Molds - Christmas Decor, Christmas Nature

Makin's Professional®

Ultimate Clay Machine™
Cutting Mat

Decorative round frame push mold

Beacon 3-in-1 Adhesive™

Light blue, white, yellow, red paint

Stencil

Ribbon

Scissors

Paintbrush

Instructions:

1. Roll black Makin's Clay® using Ultimate Clay Machine® beginning on setting #1 and ending on setting #2. Hand cut the flag shapes as shown and let them dry.

2. Mix white clay with blue acrylic paint and make the light blue color piece of clay.
Roll to setting #3 and tear part of clay to fit the banners as shown.

3. Use stencil and texture paint to make the background squares and let them dry.
Punch holes over each piece for the ribbon.

4. Cover the edges of torn pieces with clear glitter texture paint and let them dry. When dry they look translucent and not so white.

5. Use Christmas Nature and Christmas Decor push molds to make large star, ice skate, bow, snowflakes and mitten, and decorative round frame mold to piece behind large star for the banner.
Use white clay and then paint the parts into the desired colors.

6. When dry paint the molded shapes into gold, red and shiny clear colors.
