I took advantage of the 4th of July sale at Craftcast and signed up for Staci L Smith's Fossil Talisman video. I was very happy that I did.
Since then I have been spending more time in the studio, creating what I have dubbed "Future Fossils". The process is one that lends itself to batches, since each step takes time to dry or cure.
For my first attempt, just some basic shapes .... just to test out the technique.
I liked them, but thought the colors where a bit dull. They had started out brighter, but when adding the different layers, they color was toned down.
So next time, more color was added as a base to see if the final pieces would be brighter.

Success ... much brighter color

The next experiment was using brighter colors still, and an unusual shape just to spice things up.

Started out as pepper red and sunshine yellow.

Darn blogger is acting up. It will not allow me to insert the images in the order I want. So I guess I will have to share the rest of my creations in another post. Just as well that I am signing off, as I have to get ready for work. I have tomorrow off, and may get time to blog then ... but maybe not, as my friend Jen and I are going to see the Minion Movie. Hope it is as cute as it looks in trailers ....
