 Each of the pendants shown here were
molded in the cavity on the underside of a bottle of Sobe Life Water.
If you're unfamiliar with the product, it's a 0-calorie
fruit-flavored water with added vitamins. I believe it's marketed
in countries other than the U.S. The bottles come in two designs:
sunburst and flower petals. You can see the design by turning the
bottle over before you buy it. I prefer the sunburst because it's
more distinctive.

Embedding Rice Paper in Liquid Polymer Clay: An Alternative to Transfers |

This technique was introduced to me by Boo
Ersham, a St. Petersburg, FL based artist. Boo first showed me how
to embed rice paper prints into liquid polymer clay. I became so
excited by this technique, I decided I had to share it with the
world. The key ingredient in this project is the Krylon Workable
Fixitif. This is a spray on fixative that keeps the ink in the
inkjet prints from running. This allows you to coat the images with
liquid polymer clay to embed into your project. This is a great
alternative to the image transfer projects we have all struggled
with, and provides a much more consistent result.
The pendants pictured below are an example of items made using
this technique.
