So i'm all set for some friendly plastic and studio clay embellishment making today, i figured i'd made all the molds now it was about time to put them to good use!
And here are the latest molds i made from the very cute hearts that my friend Alison send me
She made them out of something called 'Hearty' clay and boy is this stuff weird, unlike any clay i've ever known, its kinda foamy/spongy when dry, and it's ultra light too. Perfect for card embellishing when you don't want the weight of a polymer clay piece.
You just know i gotta get me some of this stuff lol
***
I've had quite a productive few days art wise, most of which i can't share as its future CT work, always a good idea to get ahead when you can! But i did manage to make one piece of art for my one world one heart giveaway which i might show a sneaky peek of before the event if i get chance.
***
Right off to hop round some desks... Made it to about 70-80 last week, so might start from 75 today and try and hit the higher numbers for a change.

Lots of inks, Great desk, Happy WOYWW 85, thank you for sharing.
Hearty clay is fab stuff, its like those 'pink prawn' sweets I used to have as a kid. I like to colour it using a permanent black marker and then pick up teh highlights with metallic rub on's - looks fab!

#2. Congrats on labeling things.
#3. Congrats on the birdies.
I could go on, but it looks like there is so much going on with you, and all SO good! Way to go girlie...even down to the 80 or so visits. We bow down!

Congrats from 70-80 last week to number 1 this week. Well done. Your desk always looks like a hub of activity and I would love some sneak peajks. Little hearts are very sweet., does the clay air dry or heat dry. I burnt some clay things when I was trying to speed up the drying process!! Ooops.
gorjuss "mess" love it all, i love birdies so will be looking out for that one, cheers hun, enjoy your clay day
hugs

Hiya Minxy
lovely looking desk this week, love the look of that mould.
Joey x
I had a go at making moulds a while back ... such fun ... made so many things but I never got round to using many ...you have reminded me that they are are in a box ...somewhere lol. The new mediums look good though and I love the fact that you say it is light.
Love the bird survey idea...have registered before I comented here even ...bet I have no birds visiting that day xx
I hope you start at #75 'cos that's me this week!
I love the look of those mould things, I may just have to try that!
Chrissie#75
How fun to label your photo. Good for you for getting ahead on some of your work. Happy WOYWW!
yay - you are the Number One Gal!!
love the hearts,

Looks like you are truly getting ready to work some magic!
Love all the monkeys and the molds look interesting. I've not gotten into that yet, but foresee it in my near future.
Your workspace is great! Lot's of stash just ready and in reach! I love that you have your blog up on your computer in the pic!
I look forward to seeing your finished product from the molds!
Happy WOYWW!
xoxo Karen
I love the monkeys and they way you labeled the stuff on your desk. Looks like a lot of fun stuff. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Minxy, I can't believe I'm the first to comment to you today - where is everybody? Love your collection of monkeys - those adverts crease me up :) I didn't know about the garden bird thing so thanks for sharing. Regards, Elizabeth #78
Mincy you came up first - good grief what time where you about! Like the new font. I'm just getting into moulds so will be watching with interest!
I clicked on the photo to get a closer look. I need to send you something! e-mail me your snail mail address when you get a chance :)
Have an art-filled day today. I'm #98 on the list this week. xo
You must have started very early to get No1.
Do a every 5 look as I just can't do them all.
Love your dinky heart moulds.

You must have started early to be No 1. I do a every 5th look so never actually do them all but get different ones every week. Good fun - love WOYWW.
Dinky little moulds for the hearts.
x Tricia (80)
Your space looks fabulous! I love the monkeys and I love even more that you labeled the monkeys! Hee-hee! Those hearts are cool!
Good luck with the birdwatch on Sunday. We shall be joining you up in deepest Worcestershire. You have so many things on the go, all at once, and they all look fascinating.
I love your desk, so many interesting monkeys. Hope they get along with the mouse.

I think I spy a minxy monkey or two! I have my bird chart to the ready, although I tend to have to ID ours by song. They're loud, but shy and retiring! Intrigued by those hearts - need to investigate that one...

Love your desktop!
Love how you labeled everything on your desk this week and love your adorable monkey, monkey, monkeys...lol! Great molds too...wish I could do stuff like that!
Happy WOYWW and thanks for the peek! :D

No.1 spot this week I see. Looking round your desk reminded me that I have the little pg monkey too. Just gone and rescued him down off the shelf of bears and is now sitting beside computer. Also remembered that I bought a kit from the NEC show for making resin jewllery moulds. Tidied bag away and completely forgot about them. Next job go find em.
Hugs Mrs A. #92
Desk's looking a bit mouldy mate! lol! xxx
I shall be doing the birdwatch too, and your desk looks so funky!

That clay stuff sounds the business. Must look out for it.
Marilyn
good to see you keeping so busy, after a major craft spurt am now having a bit of arid crafty moment, hence no WOYWW this week, only choc and cream soda on the desk, great new diet, LOL
thanks for letting us snoop. That clay sounds perfect for card embellishing. Must look into that thanks again.
Desk is looking very busy....Those hearts look great--can see some perfect pearls rubbed on them!!! What kind of blue moulding material do you use???
oh those molds are fabulous! lovely hearts :)
Wonderful molds! Lovely workdesk :D. TFS!
You really have a thing for monkeys don't you! Never really noticed before! Both hearts and heart moulds look great, really interesting stuff going on.
Hugs

I love your hearts. That clay sounds like the Crayola clay. Easy to use and air drys. Fun!
Great desk, and the clay hearts look fab, thanks for sharing.Pauline x
like your hearts..that hearty clay is a good idea..so many times my kids have made stuff out of air dry clay but then it cracks when its dry.
Number 1 aye??? When did you post?? At 3am in the morning ha, ha....it seems to be a bit of a race lately - I haven+t been near the top for ages - I just can't make it! Very nice hearts! I would like some more info on that material as I always have the problem with heavy embellishments!
Hugs,
Cardarian
That's a great looking desk.. lots of fab storage and stuff going on.
Lovely idea to make moulds from those cute hearts... am tempted to get hold of some friendly plastic and have a play myself! :D
Thanks for sharing.

Lovely labels and like the ideas of making own hearts might have to give something like that a go never tried it before ~ Nicky 24
Thanks for the info on the hearty clay will give it a go, only ever used Fimo. Great work space looks very creative.
Congrats on being #1 Minxy
love the hearts, yes that clay is a bit odd at first, but fun to use and very lightweight for posting!
Well done on being #1 I'm soo late I'll be early for next week!
The hearts really do look good, specially if they are lighter, have to look out for the doughy-stuff.
Happy Woyww

what a hub of activity. I've been spotting what you have the same as me - so far I can see that we both have a 3 tier cake stand and the lamp... poor me tho has no monkey.
#1 eh? how did you manage that?!
Love the hearts and the thought of playing with all that messy stuff.
Paula x x x
Great hearts and I love all the monkeys
