She had made these cute<\/span><!--more--><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"> little bird earrings from shrink plastic and a Spellbinders Nestabilities nesting die cutter. I asked her if she thought the same thing could be done in polymer clay. This was her response&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Hi Cindy,<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">You CAN use polymer clay (FIMO) with these dies. You just need to roll it out before you try to run it through your diecut machine.  I&#8217;ve done fimo stuff for years, so I can totally appreciate your love of it.  I used to make earrings for someone for about 4 years&#8230; hundreds of pairs per month.  It was crazy, but introduced me to a whole new medium!!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>~~<\/strong><strong><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/wickedlywonderfulcreations.blogspot.com\/2008\/07\/spellbinders-pre-cha-sneak-peek-3.html\" class=\"external external_icon\" target=\"_blank\">Wendy Weixler<\/a> :)<\/span><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">One of the things I love about polymer clay is how you can cross over the tools and materials from many different mediums. In fact scrapbooking supplies are  often used in polymer clay projects.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Inks, papers, rubber stamps, die cutting machines, grommets, glitters embossing powders, heat guns and glues can be used with Fimo, Premo and Sculpey clays to create wonderful results!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">If you would like to see a couple of different posts where I have used rubber stamp techniques with polymer clay, check out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/rubber-stamping-polymer-clay\/89\/\">Rubber Stamping Polymer Clay<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/dragonfly-pendant-jewelry-necklace-fimo-rubber-stamping-techniques\/167\/\">Dragonfly Pendant Jewelry<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Thank you Wendy for your excellent feedback! Now I will have to get myself some Spellbinders die cut scrapbooking tools and see if I can come up with some fun polymer clay projects for them!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/images\/blog\/cindy-sig.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Cindy Lietz Signature\" width=\"114\" height=\"99\" align=\"right\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/images\/blog\/polymer-clay-tutor.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Polymer Clay Tutor\" width=\"200\" height=\"26\" align=\"right\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scrapbook expert Wendy Weixler, shares a tip about using die cutter machines with Fimo Clay: Awhile back I was over at the Wendy&#8217;s&#8230;&nbsp;<span class=\"cmtcnt\">9<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[73,21,18],"tags":[2702,1153,1162,1152,2740],"class_list":["post-399","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-feature-guests","category-techniques","category-tools","tag-mixed-media-scrapbooking","tag-nestabilities","tag-molds-stamps-stencils","tag-spellbinders","tag-polymer-clay-tools-supplies-organization"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/399","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=399"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/399\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=399"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=399"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beadsandbeading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=399"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
