It was quite simply made but I was pleased with how it turned out.
I made a long piece of polymer clay and then rolled it into a round spiral. I made sure it was firmly stuck togther by brushing a small amount of zest-it solvent on the edges. I then gently (just in case it came apart) cut out the heart shape. I cured it before applying any colour to it.
Red and blue acrylic ink were applied liberally to the surface, it kind of settled in the grooves of the spiral, highlighting the design while leaving a lighter shade on the raise parts. I gave another coat this time mixing in some gold Pearl-ex pigments which when dried remained sparkling on the surface. I hope I'm describing this clearly, I wish I'd taken pictures. I've already made something else with this technique and will probably post some kind of step-by-step in the future.
