computer engineering tech
Marlea in PA: lol, exactly Debbie
Maelinde: he is - that is george
norajean_sf: ok, a trick about making canes for mini
food, start LARGE and then reduce
litla62: alix, sounds familiar to me
litla62: but I'm not 100 pro sure
Maelinde: it doesn't distort the cane to reduce it?
norajean_sf: Debbie, that's the thing about polymer
clay
Marlea in PA: aww who is she Bernie? she's pretty
norajean_sf: you make it big, then reduce and the
design stays ok
norajean_sf: that's why it lends itself to doing
miniature food
norajean_sf: I don't do the lemons small
Maelinde: very cool - I need to make some canes like
that. I've only done the faux malachite
norajean_sf: that would make us all just crazier than
we already are
Missy~VA: that is bernies daughters
Marlea in PA: awww are they your daughters Bernies?
Maelinde: LOL - very true
krafty_karen_mc left the room
norajean_sf: start out large and then reduce to the
mini size you need
Missy~VA: arent they gorgeous????
Marlea in PA: yes beautiful
Maelinde: when you visit on tour, I want to learn mini
food canes in person.
norajean_sf: now folks we saying the tomato looked
good
Marlea in PA: we lost mom to puter problems- she had
fun in here though- thanks for her warm welcome
norajean_sf: that's because I put translucent clay
around the seeds and then surrounded that with the
meat of the tomato
Marlea in PA: yes- it did look really good
Missy~VA: i hope she will join us again mar!
Alix: NJ very smart lady
Maelinde: Randy likes the tomato! He said very
realistic
norajean_sf: when the clay is uncured you can't see
the juicy area around the seed
norajean_sf: when it is cured the translucent clears
up
Marlea in PA: yes- her puter and yahoo don't get along
litla62: tomato earrings for randy!!
Maelinde: LOL
norajean_sf: ok, trick for tonight
Maelinde: I never thought to use Translucent that way.

translucent clay

norajean_sf: the area around the tomato seed is juicy
