Do you like the look of faux ceramic? I personally love ceramic pieces and I'm always working on new ideas and technique to get a beautiful faux ceramic look for my clay pieces.
In this tutorial, I'm showing you how the same silkscreen used with different colours will result in different effects. And a beautiful clay slab that will allow you to make lots of clay designs! And I have to tell you that I cannot decide which one (the classic or the fall one) I prefer the most.
For this tutorial I used:
-white polymer clay
-geometric stencil
-mica powders in fall colors
-imitation gold metal leaf
-texture plate
-2 round cutters (a larger and a smaller one)
-gold color metal frame
-Ultramarine Blue Pan pastel
-UV resin and a UV lamp
-clay tools
-heat gun
-oven and oven thermometer

I bake my pieces on parchment paper to avoid ending up with a glass like look on the back. And this is because I like to make a beautiful textured back for my clay pieces by putting the front clay piece (with the stenciled pattern) on top of a piece textured and colored with mica powders as well.

I love the distinctive touch brought by the gold metal leaf (imitation) and I thought it would fit well the faux ceramic idea.

I finished by applying UV resin for the subtle sheer of the pieces and the ceramic lookalike appearance.

Happy claying!
