Shrink Gears, Keys and Stamp Embellishments Tutorial

Here is the tutorial on how to Shrink Gears, Keys and Stamps. Now you can actually do whatever form and shape you want and also paint them with other type of materials like Ink, Acrylics, Markers, Embossing Powder, Stickles etc.

In this video I'm showing you the process on how to do do this, is very fun and is working for me beautifully. This is a good way to make your own charms and not spending so much money on metal charms. Now is obvious that the finish look with metal charms is outstanding and if you want to make your embellishments to standout having the real thing is the best way, but I like this alternative and I will save money down the road but I will use both ways for my creations.

I found out recently that Ranger has this paper called Shrink Plastic from the Inkssentials line and apparently is not easy to find, and Tim Holtz has a video about this. I used Shrinky Dinks and it works awesome.

But after hard work and patience I got some cool things, not the best though but art material that will help me create my art. I want to thank all the people that have help me and donate money to keep me going with my Art projects they know who they are. Mixed media has been one of those things that I've always liked, when I was at Art school people was more concentrated on doing perfection while I was going wild and there is when I've realized that I love to worked with Mixed Media Art. Unfortunately I don't have any of the things I did in the past, long story but I'm here now to show you what I'm capable of with my mind and hands.
