Getting Started with Polymer Clay: Skinner Blend Tutorial
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 вер 2024
- A polymer clay skinner blend is one of the most basic polymer clay techniques. It’s a base technique. It’s used in just about any area of polymer clay art from canes to surface techniques and is a must if you’re getting started with polymer clay. In this tutorial I’ll be showing the basic two color skinner blend, but I’ll be showing a three color skinner blend and a rainbow skinner blend in coming tutorials.

Sincerely Samantha Burroughs.
Loving your work I’ve just started using polymer clay so your tutorials are great
As usual very clear tutorial and great results. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing. Even though I have been "claying" for many years, I am still learning new tricks and techniques. Your UA-cam techniques have taught me a lot.
Your a life saver..I needed to know how to do this for flower petals thank you for this
Yes! I finally got my Skinner Blend!! I really love your videos! Thanks so much for your great technique. Some videos rush you through each process, but you were great!
There is no such thing as TOO detailed tutorial. This is fabulous girl.
Thank you so much for the tip of placing the clay next to the edge to keep it straight....THANK YOU!!
thanks samantha! I just got my pasta machine and this technique is what I'll be trying next, I love your very clear, lovely, and thoughtful explanations of the techniques you demonstrate - wonderful
Very helpful, thank you! I have seen and heard about skinner blends for years but your detailed explanation and helpful tips make all the difference. Great tutorial!
I am so excited to learn all of this while I wait for all of my products to come. Thanks. Excellent video
I want just to tell you are fantastic! Thank you!
Another good tute Samantha ❤️👍🏻and again thank you for your time your so good at your techniques and very thorough from start to finish keep up your excellent work👍🏻
Thanks!
Thank you for this excellent video. I do other crafts, but have wanted to add polymer clay. I struggle dreadfully. I totally understand that you really should have the skinner blend down before you go on to anything else. I just can't do it. I just get one colour of long clay. I can say there is _no-one_ who explains the technique so clearly. I feel confident to try again, with your video close by. Your work is beautiful too. Thank you again.
Well done , beautiful !
I love your videos!!! I’ve yet to make friends with my pasta machine but we’ve only been aquatinted about two days😂😂 but by all the gods I’ll make a skinner blend eventually!!! Thank you for sharing your art I truly do love it your talent
Abbey Stewart same here!!! My tissue blade and I have also not gotten aquatinted! Cut myself within 10 minutes, lol :)
@@heatherpsyd Dear Heather, a great way to prevent cutting yourself is: get a bottle of any bright nail polish you have at home and paint 2 marks on the tissue blade, one mark on each end of the side you're meant to hold, the blunt side. This will remind you where to take hold of it. Or, Sculpey sells a set of 3 tissue blades that I bought quite cheaply online, and they come with handles that fit all the blades. Good luck.

Bellissimo, ho iniziato da poco ad usare la pasta polimerica e questo video è molto utile. Grazie grazie grazie 😃
Again, a great tutorial from you. Your jewelry shine a lot. What are you using for that?
I use Ice Resin to get the glass like effect.
Hello Samantha, what finishing technique do you use on your pieces to get them so shiny? The shine is and finish is absolutely beautiful !! TFS!
I use Ice Resin to get my shiny glass effect on the pendants.
Do you have a tutorial using a roller and not the pasta machine please
No, sorry. Just a pasta machine one.
What setting in the pasta machine did you roll the clay ?
I used my thickest setting. A number seven on my machine.
If I want the skinner blend to be wider? Wider enough for a trinket dish for example do I use bigger bigger triangles is that going to make it wider?
Yes. You're only limited to the width of your pasta machine so use as triangles as large as you want.
How do you keep it from getting too wide?
Sorry, I should have finished watching
What size are you squares cut to
Roughly 8cm by 8cm.
Thank you. Your work is beautiful!
