Susan’s Convention Swap

My peep Susan Field was kind enough to give my one of her Convention Swaps.  The flower embellishment really caught my eye.  Was is a brad?  Was it a button?  No to both.  It was a rose made from Stampin' Up's Simply Pressed Clay. 

I spent last weekend in Dittmer, MO with some of my peeps so I was able to play with this product.  Let me tell you that it was so easy.  I added drops ( a few at a time) of Summer Starfruit reinker to a small amount of clay and kneeded it until it was blended.  Then a placed a small amount of clay into the mold and placed it in the freezer for 10 minutes.  It popped right out of the mold without losing any shape.  I then adhered the Basic Pearl to the center and let it air dry overnight. 

I can't wait to play with it again.  I have another card in mind for clay button.  It should be ready just in time for my September Stamp Camp.
