Liquid Sculpey® Pink Ribbon Window Clings

Getting Started:

Please make sure your work area is covered and you are not working on an unprotected surface. We recommend working on the Sculpey® Oven Safe Work Mat, wax paper, metal baking sheet, or disposable foil. Uncured Liquid Polymer Clay may damage unprotected furniture or finished surfaces. Be sure to cover your crafting area appropriately. - Stir Liquid Sculpey® completely. Thin with Sculpey® Liquid Clay Softener as needed - Wash hands after use (we have found that baby wipes work best)

Baking:

•It is important to use oven thermometer when you bake the liquids so that you can ensure your oven is at the correct temperature.•Do not microwave the liquids. They must be baked in a Preheated oven at 275 ºF (130 ºC) for liquid colors and 300 ºF (149 ºC) for Clear – Do not exceed baking temperatures.•If your piece is less than 1/4” bake for 15 minutes. For thicker pieces that are 1/4” or above bake for 30 minutes. •If your liquid project has become yellowed or discolored in the oven, when you remake it, tent it by placing either – folding an index card in half and placing your project under it or by using aluminum foil over your project.

Place the ribbon template underneath the glass.

Trace the outline of the ribbon shape using White LS. I used White because it is particularly thick and holds a line well. In this example I followed the shape of the line completely but added my own flower doodles down the middle.

My third ribbon is very simple and mostly follows the shape of the ribbon with no added details. Bake your outline at 300 degrees for 15 minutes to set the borders.

First I mixed up Clear LS with pink glitter. I filled a miniature cupcake paper baking liner half way with Clear LS. Then I added pink glitter.

Mix the glitter in completely with a clay tool. Use a tool that won’t poke holes in the paper liner.

Pour some of the glitter mixture into areas of your ribbons. Underfill the areas.

Move the glitter mixture around with a pointed clay tool to fill in tiny spaces.

If you accidentally get some of the glitter mixture on your White outline, you can easily squeegee it off with your finger.

To fill in the middles of letters or other small details, you can pick up a drop of the mixture from another area and bring it to the small spaces. Bake the ribbons again, this time at 325 degrees so that the Clear LS will go clear.

Add just enough mica powder to achieve the pinkness that you would like. Thin the pink liquid enough that it will be easily poured into the areas of the ribbon.

When they are completely cool, they are ready to carefully peel from the glass and display on a window or mirror. The plain one had some thick edges so I trimmed it a bit with sharp scissors. This is an easy fix anytime you go outside the lines.
