This simple tutorial will show you how to transfer an inkjet-printed image onto polymer clay using just an OHP inkjet transparency/acetate sheet.
Apart from a printer and an acetate sheet, you will just need clay, an oven and your regular clay-working tools. In this lesson, I use a ceramic tile as my work surface, a straw, some protective top coat spray, a cookie cutter and an acrylic roller to work and roll out my (Fimo soft) clay.
It's a very quick and easy process; the only thing you have to watch out for is the ink 'beading' on the plastic surface...but I offer tips about how to solve this in the video. Plus, always remember to reverse your image before you print it (if it's not symmetrical).
You can even re-use the acetate sheets after use, so it's a cost-effective technique too.
I hope you find this video useful. Thanks for watching :)
