I know what you mean! Sometimes you need just the right combination of clay brand, thickness, time and temperature in order for it to work. There are a lot of variables, so keep experimenting!
Thank you! I've been wondering how they do this.. haha!! You're timing is just perfect.. now, I won't have to spend hours trying to figure it out!! Looking forward to learning how to make cabochons with it!!! :)
I saw another polymer clay artist heat up a ceramic tile in the oven. Then, handling with an oven mitt, she placed it over a sheet of clay to partially bake the upper layer. You'd have to experiment to get all the variables right (oven temp, time in oven, time on the clay) but it might work. If you try it let us know how it goes!
I've seen some artists heat a ceramic tile in the oven and then put the clay sheet on that to partially cure the outer layer. You definitely have a lot less control, but give it a try! I would imagine this technique takes a bit of trial and error, but don't they all? ;-)
Thank you for sharing this technique 😍
You are very welcome! Happy creating, Pooja. :-)
Thanks Sandy.. you’re such a great teacher..
Thank you, Joyce! Hope the video was helpful. :-)
Thank you Sandy! I tried this technique from another artist but I couldn't get it to work. Anxious to give this a try.

New word. Schmeary! Great video.
Love love love this tuto! thanks Sandy
Fran Edwards Thank you, Fran, I'm so glad you like it. Happy creating!
Nice experiment Sandy , Thanks for sharing !
I really love how simple this is, thank you for sharing and teaching me a new technique.

Gorgeous!
Thank you! :-)
How fun! Thank you so much, Sandy.
Thank you Sandy! Great ideas!
Awesome tutorial... I really enjoyed it ! Thank you for sharing ;-)
Amazing
Thank you, Tamar. :-)
Very interesting! Subscribed tonight. TFS
Hope you enjoy the videos, Sarah. Happy creating!
Love it! What if I don't have a heat gun?

Thanks a ton! I'll try it out this weekend and let you know for sure
Pretty!
great video Sandy ! Do you think this could be done with concrete ?
Gosh, I have NO idea. I've never worked with concrete, but it seems like a very different material than clay.
It is ! but I'm in search of a crackling technique that I could use and came upon your video. Thanks for responding though and create on !
wouldn’t powder on tile make it easier to remove
Often you want the clay to stick to the tile until you’re ready to remove it.
I dont have a heat gun and honestly, i dont want one... isnt it possible with something else?
