hello,
We are already on day five… how are you doing ?
Today, we are talking “Viva Decor“… I loooove those products and I’m not the only one. You try them, you love them…
There is so much in the Viva range that you are bound to find something you like. Here, I have used two of my favourite products: the Croco paint (which gives you a true amazing crakle) and the clay.
I’m very new to clay, 100% beginner, so those of you out there who have been “claying” for a while, will probably smile at what I do (I’m sure I will when I look back in a couple of years). In the meantime, I’m trying… learning, from my mistakes mainly but most importantly, I’m having great fun! At least, it will show you beginners out there, that if I can do it, you can too.
I’ll give you more details below but in the meantime, here’s where you can find today’s clue.
Look at what I did with clay below and especially the colours I have used. The clue is hidden “behind” one of the colours… like a stone.. it can be precious…happy hunting

Bonjour,
Nous sommes déjà au 5ème jour! Vous arrivez à suivre?
Aujourd’hui nous allons parler des produits “Viva Decor“… J’adoooore ces produits et je ne suis pas la seule. Vous les essayez, vous les aimez…
Il y a plein de produits différents dans la gamme Viva, je suis sûre que vous trouverez quelque chose que vous aimez. Ici, j’ai utilisé deux de mes produits préférés: la peinture Croco et la pâte polymère.
Je suis 100% débutante avec la pâte polymère, donc les habituées vont sûrement sourire quand elles vont voir ce que je fais (ce qui sera sûrement mon cas aussi quand je regarderai à mes débuts dans quelques temps). En attendant, je m’éclate et cela prouve à vous, débutantes, que si je peux le faire, vous pouvez aussi.
Je vais vous donner plus de détails, mais en attendant, voici où vous pouvez trouver l’indice du jour.
Regardez les réas ci-dessous. J’ai utilisé plusieurs couleurs de pâte polymère. L’indice se cache derrière une des couleurs… comme une pierre.. elle peut être précieuse…

Christmas star
I used one of the stars in the altering section, painted it with Viva Decor Bi-color paint (purple gold), then covered it with the Viva Decor transparent Croco paint and let it dry over night. Then added a touch of Viva Decor Glitter gel (holo iridescent) for a touch of sparkle.
Made some beads with Viva Decor Pardo clay (and the bead rollers), attached them to the star as well as a ribbon and went in the basement especially for you, hunting for the white xmas tree to take a pretty picture . My daughter got uber excited thinking we were going to put the xmas trees up in the house!

PENDANT and beads
This next one is a work in progress. Made the pendant but for the beads I will probably use them for earings, or a handbag charm or something. I used three different colour clay here and the bead rollers.

Card
Finally, some of you might have already seen that one on my blog, but I wanted to post it here to show you the effect of the Ferro paint used with Dreamweaver stencils. I saw a card Sandy made when I was in the shop last month, and wanted to try too.
I use Ferro golden orange for the flower and butterfly along with a Dreamweaver stencil . On the frame (cut with Nestabilities and embossed with one of the latest Cuttlebug embossing folder, I used Viva Decor Precious Metal paint (orange yellow) and the orange Ferro too.
The background is inked with Nick Bantock Plum ink, and stamped with PaperArtsy mini stamps.
The die-cuts are from the Cuttlebug ornamental iron heat embossed with Disco Black embossing powder;
The Fairy is an printed image. Her wings are glittered with Stickles Platinum
See you tomorrow for the last clue
A demain pour le dernier indice.
