Hi!
I have a couple of cards to share today that I made for the Moxie Fab Cameo Challenge HERE. I was TOTALLY enabled to purchase the cameo mold from THIS post from Betsy Veldman! I was not the only one enabled because my fellow Diva Shannan ordered too!!! LOLOL!!!
The cameos were SO fun to make and I loved how they turned out but I had trouble incorporating them in to a card....It may have something to do with my hibernating mojo!!!
Instead of going in to step by step of what I used on this card, I will include the supplies at the end of my post. For this cameo I used pearl Sculpy clay and added a small amount of some blue clay I had. I have no idea of the color but it turned our really pretty and glittery in real life! I then painted the accents with off white acrylic paint. Here is a closer look ~
I did learn that when putting the clay in the mold, don't fill it up all the way to the top. A couple of them turned out kind of thick but they can be sanded down so that's good.
Here is a white one with black accents ~
The clay is White Sulpey III. This one I didn't fill the mold up to the top so it turned out thinner. Here is a closer look at this one ~
The paper color is actually a pretty lavender but my picture doesn't do it justice. The papers are from Webster's Pages.

Ab-So-Lutely amazing ... the blue one is my favorite ... I've been lusting after that Ice Resin, but your fabulous project just moved it further up my list ... and I loved that we used the same paper for our cameo cards (brilliant minds think alike) ... I miss designing with you ... and am in awe of these fabulous creations.

If these cards are examples of your "hibernating mojo" then I am wildly jealous. They are absolutely gorgeous.
