Step 1
|
Arrange small shapes of Friendly Plastic® on Teflon sheet or aluminum foil; heat using heat gun or oven until soft.
|
Step 2
|
Let plastic rest for 5 long seconds; then holding marbling comb at 20° angle from upright, drag through plastic pulling one color into next. Turn the sheet around; repeat in opposite direction. (Clean surplus bits of plastic from comb tines between each drag).
|
Step 3
|
While plastic is still warm, dip cookie cutter in cold water; cut out circle from the swirled plastic. Let cool completely; gently ease circle out. (Use scissors if necessary).
|
Step 4
|
Cut two pieces of red Friendly Plastic® slightly larger than circle; lay side by side on Teflon sheet so that they touch. Heat using heat gun or oven until soft.
|
Step 5
|
Press swirled circle into hot plastic using flat end of a kebab stick until evenly embedded; cut out circle again through both layers of plastic. While plastic is still warm, work four holes into the centre of the circle using needle tool, pointed craft stick or a ball ended embossing tool.
