What people are saying about this tutorial. jennifer rose Just finished this first workshop on how to make canes, and I must say I learned so much. This is exactly what I have been looking for, someone who could explain cane making in a step by step that process that I could replicate. I watched the videos, went into my studio and began to create all of the canes Alice showed. I finally have results I can be proud of, and I say thank you so much for doing this workshop. My only question now is when do we get more workshops. If you are only going to take one online class let it be this workshop. Thank you Alice for your hard work, and your dedication to helping others learn the joys of polymer clay.

For a Friend – A Butterfly

This butterfly is for a friend, in appreciation. I started by making just the character in the middle and then decided to try some wing stamps by Barbara McGuire that I brought home from my visit to Woman Creative in GA. Well once I added the wings she got quite large.

I decided to place it in a frame so that she can hang it on the wall or wear it if she’s brave enough. (It’s big, really!) I hope she likes it.

Hi Laquita, I’m so glad to hear from you. I sent it to her, but I haven’t heard from her yet, so I guess she hasn’t received it yet. The colors do look like you !!!!

OMG, your butterfly DID arrive and I couldn’t believe that I’m the VERY lucky friend to whom you sent it!!!! Thank you so very, very much, Alice. She’s already on the wall (and the frame will just have to sit empty whenever I wear her!). What a sweet person you are!!

Love you loads,

Charline
