Toner Transfer Results

There was pretty extensive plaquing in the translucent clay. I would have preferred a clearer result, but it's not unattractive. I was quite pleased with how well the transferring worked. The holes are to accommodate the transparencies I overlaid these with, attaching with brads, to finish the ATCs.

Clearly, I need to work on my faux stone technique. I added a little pumpkin pie spice to the terra cotta colored clay, and black pepper to the greens, just for a bit of speckling. I was really pleased with the way that looked, but I overmixed my colors (again!) and didn't get much banding.

Practice makes perfect!

Toner Transfer on PC

To make some unique ATCs, I wanted to try a suggestion given to me by a lady at Stamp Thyme: toner transfer onto polymer clay. She said it was foolproof. I was skeptical (heavy-handed) but wanted to try it. With photocopies in hand, I conditioned some clay, burnished the images onto the clay, spritzed with water and rubbed off the soaked paper. And I'll be darned, it worked!

I have no idea how long they will need to bake... I'll have to play that by ear. Once they're done, I'll scan 'em and post 'em.
