This
week I thought it would be fun to continue the Halloween party food
theme for the dolls. I was looking at one of my many cookbooks the
other day and ran across a recipe for people size Halloween Whoopie
pies. I decided that they would be a perfect project for doll size
and even though this batch is Hallween theme you can easily make them
fit any time of year and be any flavor you wish by just adjusting the
the decorations and changing the color of clay you use.
I
used a roughly equal mix of Original Sculpey and Tangerine Fimo. Any
white and orange clays would work for this project.
Once
again this week I used a clay cutter to portion out the clay this is
really the easiest way to make sure that all your pieces come out the
same size when you are done. It does save you a lot of work in the
long run, trust me on this one.
To
texture I am using some tools you have seen me use before on my
tutorials if you have been watching me for very long: the pot
scrubber and a toothbrush. I do prefer the pot scrubbers from the
dollar store because they have a softer, finer texture than the ones
from the regular grocery store but either will work fine. The
toothbrush is one of my most used tools when it comes to texturing
clay especially when I am making baked goods.
Also
again this week I formed my clay cakes (?) on my piece of sandpaper.
This really cuts down on the amount of work you need to do to get
wonderful “baked” texture. I think this particular piece of
sandpaper has finally gotten to the end of its useful life however
since it stuck to so many of the clay pieces. I think this was at
least the 6th time I had baked on it though so it has
gotten a bit of use. I might try to use it again we shall see.
The
faces are really fun to paint using the Scribbles 3-D fabric paint.
Use your imagination and see what faces you can come up with.
Also
if you have been watching my channel you probably weren't surprised
to see the tube of caulk show up again this week. It really does make
the perfect frosting.
I
think the most important step with these to make sure you allow
enough time to let each step dry before you go onto the next step.
I
hope you enjoyed this project, be sure to subscribe/ follow me to see
