This is the center of a new cameo pin that I have been working on whenener I have a second available. I can't wait to show you the finished piece! There will be beads involved in this project, it's impossible for me to resist adding beads to anything right now :)
I made this part of the pin using my little papercut technique. I cut the silhouettes in paper and then I pressed the cut paper on polymer clay. Once the clay was cured and cold I then gave a little white pattina to the surface to inhance the image. The last step was polishing and adding a tiny vintage cristal to the fox.
Something so tiny requires a lot of work, just like little babies. But it is so exciting to see the little thing grow and get a personality. That's what I enjoy the most about these little projects.
See you soon!
Elsita :)
Adorable

I can see these making gorgeous Christmas tree ornaments with tiny abstract designs and the same technique. I really want to try this out for our tree, since my family only puts on handmade ornaments!
So, you weren't worried about the paper burning in the oven during the cooking time? Did you use cardstock? I know I am being nosy, here, but it's so beautiful! (Tutorial, please!)

agnespterry: You shouldn't put the paper in the oven. After I press it on the polymer clay surface I then remove it carefully. Just make sure to use any thick paper that can keep the shape when you pull it away from the polymer clay :)

This is wonderful! I dabble in ceramics, collage and paper cutting and have been trying to figure out a way to combine these techniques. This is so beautifully simple! I've even got some nice thick paper- to the cutting mat!
