How to create polymer clay and recessed metal leaf stenciled design

Learn this easy polymer clay and stenciling technique. You will keep people guessing how you made it! All you need is some metal leaf a blade and a stencil and you can create this unique look.

I am all about experimenting and this came about in one of my early morning experimental sessions. I wanted to find a way to have the metal leaf in the outline of the design and this worked perfectly! It looks like its so hard and time consuming to create but its really easy. Hope you will give it a shot!

Stenciling is one of my favorite techniques to do with polymer clay and also mixed media. It is super easy to do and you get such beautiful results. I love to experiment with different ways to add color to my pieces. In this episode of Polymer Clay TV I show how to use our new punchinella stencils. They come in a set of 4 different designs and you can see all the beautiful designs at this link. http://bit.ly/1Bgv2bb
