Clay Texture Sheets and Other Cool Tools for Polymer Clay

Vid #15: For Every Polymer Clay Technique, There's Usually An Exciting Polymer Clay Tool To Discover As Well:
And this discovery process can take you in all kinds of creative directions. Look to some of the other craft supplies and tools you may have on hand for new ideas.
The first person who used rubber stamps for polymer clay probably just had them laying on the table they were working on, and ended up giving them a try. Now rubber stamping tools and polymer go hand in hand. Same goes for clay texture sheets.
Polymer clay is one of the great "cross-over mediums" that you could ever find. This is why I love it so much and why I think you will too!

I have used texture plates made for fabric and shiva paint sticks to texture polymer clay. I've also used the bottoms of interesting "soles" on shoes.
What other unusual things are people out there using to texture your polymer clay with?

The shoe idea is a cool one Katina! Thanks for telling us about it!

I have been using push molds to make little figures and when they are baked they do not harden completely they remain slightly flexible. I used original sculpy, the white kind. I thought it was supposed to harden completely.
It seems that the thinner pieces remain flexible and the thicker pieces get harder. Does everything have to be a certain thickness in order for it to harden correctly?

I don't use the original Sculpey Camille so I don't know too much about it. Most of the polymer clay is somewhat flexible when thin though. It is the nature of this particular type of material. You may need to switch to Sculpey Firm or Fimo Puppen if you want a firmer end product.
