Textured Rope Letters

This is another incredibly easy way to add words to your art. Create rope letters made with Creative Paperclay® directly on your art. There is no limit when it comes to size or the number of letters.

Supplies:
Creative Paperclay®
Alphabet stamps, texture plates
Paint or metallic rub
Embellishments

The clay is rolled out in to long ropes and the words are laid on the art surface. Sometimes I will dampen the surface slightly for better adhesion.

 

Next I lay a texture plate over the clay to embloss words into the clay. I like the fact that they are not legible.

  

 Now I let the clay dry. When dry I can paint or add a rub to the clay.

  

Here it is finished with a gold rub and embellishments.

 

Thanks and hope you can find a place for this in your art.
