Project Instructions
- Getting Started:
Start with clean hands, unwrap and knead clay until soft and smooth, or condition by running clay though a Pasta Machine. We recommend using a designated machine for clay purposes only. When working with multiple colors, clean hands with soap and water or baby wipes (we have found that baby wipes work best) before switching colors. Shape clay, pressing pieces firmly together. Wash hands after use.
- Baking:
Roll Jade to a little sheet 1/8” in thickness. Select a circle cutter that is slightly larger than the pop socket. Use this cutter to make an impression on the clay so that you know how large your decorated slab needs to be.

Burnish the clay sheet down to your work surface so that it doesn’t slip around as you work. Add little thin ropes of Pumpkin stems as shown.

Pinch flatten three very small petals from Cherry Pie. Push these into place with the Ball Tool layering them off center over each other. (In this photo the metal ball tool is showing, however, you can easily substitute the Ball End Tool from the Clay Tool Starter Set which is listed in the supply list above.)

Fill the center of the flower with little hand shaped Pumpkin balls.

Next mix Raspberry with Igloo 1:1 to make Light Raspberry. Make five little triangular shaped petals and set them into place at the end of one of the stems. Use the Ball End Tool to texture each petal.

Set a ball of Raspberry in the center of the flower and make a divot in the center with the Ball End Tool.

Mix Cornflower and Igloo 1:1 to make Light Cornflower. Make six tapered little petals and set them in place at the end of a stem. Score the petals with the Needle Tool.

Cut out the circle shape using the Circle Cutter from Step 2. Bake the clay slab following the baking instructions for Sculpey Soufflé™. Allow to cool before placing onto the Pop Socket.
