Stamping on polymer clay bears little resemblance to stamping on paper, although many of the same materials are used. Stamps may be rubber or reverse impressions made from polymer clay, and the image is impressed into the clay surface, making a patterned relief. Barbara has done it again with another fabulous addition to the annals of polymer clay! Using her expertise as an artist, Barbara does an excellent job of show how limitless the possibilities of stamping with polymer clay can be. Her attention to detail and eye for color, form and function are well expressed in this book. The projects are well timely, well thought out and brilliantly executed. As always, Barbara does an extrodinary job with the finishing of each piece. And as always, her text is full of extremely helpful hints and tips that even the most experienced polymer enthusiast can use. I highly recommend this book!
Professional artist McGuire (Foundations in Polymer Clay Design) provides detailed information on materials and techniques, with two dozen step-by-step projects for jewellery and accessories. The beauty of these pieces is in the decorative embellishments, such as embossing powders, colored inks, and gold leaf. This is an excellent addition to the growing body of literature on polymer clay. Recommended for collections needing professional-quality material on this subject.
