FP Pellets & Ooze


I've been having a play with the FP pellets today.  They look like frogspawn when they are all melted and they all stick together!!  They are clear when you pick them out the hot water and can be coloured with AI's.  I used meadow on the first layer of this piece and then stream on the outside layer.  The stream is usually a very vivid blue but it really does take a lot to colour them.


The inner piece is pellets and coloured with ginger AI, but it's way too thick.  I should have rolled it out more.  The outside piece is the burnt orange from the foiled strips. You can see the difference in colour!!!


Bottom right is pellets coloured with stream AI, again too thick.  The other five pieces are from the foiled strips and have had the ooze technique used on them.  I cut the bottom left with an 's' shaped cookie cutter, but decided to leave it in the square.  If you enlarge the picture you can see the ooze just coming through in the shape of an 's'.
