AMP

Good morning and welcome to another Amazing Mold Putty creation by me.  I cannot get over how much I love using this stuff.  As we were putting up our Christmas tree this year and going through boxes and boxes of ornaments I came across an ornament that I absolutely love and that's when it hit me...I can make a mold and cast it and then turn it into a pin.  


Here is the ornament.  It's very heavy, I think its pewter, but I just love the detail in it...
I casted it using the silver metal powder that I recently got from AMP mixed in with the resin.  
This stuff is so awesome
Here you can see the finished piece and the original piece.
Then I mixed up a bit of black acrylic paint with a little water, painted it and wiped the excess off
to give it an aged look.  I painted the bows with red acrylic paint, the tree with green
acrylic paint and added a bit of translucent powder to the tree while it was still wet
to give it some shimmer and shine.  I also snipped the "hanger" portion off of the tree
and cut a bit too deep, but I still like it a lot.
See...I cut the "tree top" off  :(
Then I added a pin back and let that dry overnight and 24 hours later I have an adorable pin for my jacket


See the little snowman?  I'll be showing you these next week sometime...so stay tuned for more inspirations.
I hope I've inspired you to create something with the Amazing Mold Putty because the possibilities are endless.  If you'd like to see more creations by the other designers, click here.  They are amazing...
