Personal Portrait Collage
Materials list
-
with special instructions from Heather
5x7 Wood picture
frame. ( This size can vary according to availability. It
could be a square, just something close to this size) This frame needs
to have at least 3” of wood surrounding the 5x7” picture
inset. Cut out a heavy piece of cardboard to fit the inside of the 5x7
picture area on the back.
Sand paper 60
grit ( dust mask is optional but comes in handy when
sanding)
Polymer Clay:
2 oz. Fimo soft clay sahara
2 oz. Fimo soft clay white
2 oz. Light to medium colored clay #1
2 oz. Light to medium colored clay #2
2 oz. Light to medium colored clay #3
If you would like to have clay to play
around with please bring Extra from what is listed.
You may use any brand of clay for this project. I use Fimo soft white
and sahara to mix together to make a cream color, If you have a cream
color in another brand it is fine to use. I prefer to use Fimo soft or
Premo for this project. They also blend well together.
Alcohol blending
solution
Alcohol inks- You will need at least three colors of inks that will
go well with the clay colors that you have chosen. I use Adirondack inks
and they only come in one size( about one ounce bottles) I also usually
include one brown color like ginger, or latte. But it is up to you to
choose the colors that will work best with your project.
Photo of yourself
or the person you are making this for. This picture needs
to have been copied on a toner based copier
and sized to fit in the 5x7 space. I prefer it to be done in black and
white. Make several extra copies in case you need to practice.
There is a toner-based copier at Maureen's, with copies at $.08 each.
Acrylic craft
paints. We will be painting the frame first. Choose a
color that will be a good background for the clay colors that you have
chosen.

parts, watches, buttons, belts, stones, seeds, keys, bells, coins,
