Scrapbooking Tip 99.  Polymer Molds

To create great three-dimensional items of any shape and size use polymer molds. Polymer molds can be used to make virtually any shape. These shapes can range from animals and characters for children's artwork or elegant bells for weddings or wedding showers.

To make shapes, polymer clay is placed into molds and baked. Alternately, shape the clay into beads or other freehand items that can also be baked. Once set, these items can be painted with acrylic paint.

Scrapbooking Tip 100. Hand Prints

The sweetest accents to a child's scrapbook page are handprints. Handprints are especially appreciated in baby or grandparent scrapbooks.

To make prints, prepare a flat surface. Next, put acrylic paint into a paper plate. Then, have your child place his or her hands in the paint and then on your scrapbook surface, one at a time. After the paint dries, you will have a permanent record of your child's handprints.
