Polymer clay? Why not!

Before the glass cutter gets delivered by Amazon, I am playing with clay, transfers and paint today. So, along with painting some more trees today, that makes five projects I've got going on today! Six, if you include posting my blog.

5out of 5

Pros: Heavy, Easy To Use, No Bleed-through

Cons: Economical In Large Sizes

Best Uses: Art, Art Journals, Mixed Media Paintings, Scrapbooking/Cardmaking

Describe Yourself: Value Oriented

Primary use: Personal

Was this a gift?: No

My first experience was with the Raffine sketchbooks. I decided to buy the packages of large sheets because I like to bind my own art journals. In the process I discovered it is great for use as a substrate for watercolor or acrylic paintings in larger sizes. You can fold, then wet the fold and easily tear the size you need. It does need to be stored flat, like all art papers.
