Hello friends!
Hope you are good!
Hope you are good!
Thank you so much for popping by today.....
I'm sooo excited to share my Melt Art Mania creation with you....
not only that...... I will also be sharing a tutorial on how you to can create your own Melt Art.....
A few weeks ago was asked to participate in
Rangers Melt Art Mania....I just couldn't wait to get started!
I wanted to use my Melt Art melting pot as it has
so many creative possibilities from Creating 3-D embellishments, jewellery, paper crafting in fact the list just goes on!
I wanted to create something that could have a duel purpose......
maybe worn as an item of jewellery but could also be adapted to use as an embellishment for my art work
So for this project as well as using my Melt Art Pot, Melt Art Texture treads I would also use one of my other favourite mediums....
Rangers Metal foil sheets.....are perfect for what I had in mind.....

These brooches are so cool and simple to make..
Here is a tutorial on how you can
create your own Melt Art embellishments
Supplies:
Ranger Melt Art Melting pot/spatula
Ranger non-stick craft sheet
Ranger Melt Art Texture Treads
Ranger Melt Art Ultra thick embossing Enamel
Ranger metal foil sheets
Tim Holtz scissors
Ranger Vintaj Patinas
Memory frame
Memory Foil tape
Alcohol ink-pitch black
Blending tool/felt
Hot glue gun
embossing tool/paper stump
brooch pin
Cookie cutter
steel wool
Set your melt pot to the UTEE setting and add your UTEE
(I used clear and Pearl)
Choose your texture tread and carefully pour the UTEE over the top
next take a cookie cutter and carefully place into the UTEE and leave for a few minutes to set
(use your spatula to test if the UTEE has set.......DO NOT use you fingers)
When the UTEE is cool, carefully peel the texture tread away and snap the heart out of the UTEE
(Place any left over UTEE back into your melt pot to re-use)
Next take a sheet of Rangers Metal foil sheet
cut a heart out of the foil sheet slightly bigger than your UTEE heart
Remove the backing of the foil sheet.
Next place your UTEE heart face-down onto the foil heart......so that the pattern is stuck to the foil
carefully make some snips around the heart.
Turn over the heart and using a paper stump or an embossing tool rub over and around the heart to expose the the pattern of the texture tread
Now take the snipped foil and stick down to the edges of the heart
cut another heart in the foil and place onto the back of the heart
this will hide the seams of the foil
Using steel wool, gently rub over the whole pattern of the heart
Take a blending tool with felt and apply some pitch black alcohol ink
Rub the blending tool all over the heart (front and back)
Take a small piece of steel wool and gently rub over the areas you want to to expose
of the pattern
I added a smaller heart to my brooch ( made in exactly the same way )
and stuck it to the heart using a hot glue gun
To finish I added a pin to the reverse of my brooch
Your brooch is finished!
I really hope you enjoyed the tutorial

Why not experiment and add some Idea-ology
.JPG)
Try pouring the UTEE into a memory frame, when it has completely cooled add a square of metal foil sheet to the embossed UTEE frame and follow the steps as before..
You could also try adding colour to the metal, I used Rangers Vintaj Patinas
apply the Patinas using your fingers over the raised areas, then gently rub with the steel wire for a more distressed look.
I love experimenting with the texture treads
they are so much fun to work with!

ReplyDeletea greeting
What a neat project...looks like polymer and even the molten solder that is getting popular. This would be so much fun to try and safer that the solder projects. Now if I only had more Utee and the colors to try.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the neat projects
Janet Calardo
My melting pot is neglected! I really need to pull it out and start experimenting with different techniques. Texture treads have been on my wishlist for a while, so I'd really love to win some...thanks for the opportunity! Your tutorial is great!

ReplyDeleteWow love how these turned out. Looks like polymer and the molten solder look that is popular. Would be a lot safer and quicker. Would love to try out the colors and texture plates for the Utee. Need to try something different and this was great idea.
ReplyDeleteThanks for making me think outside of the box !!
Janet
Your post couldn't have come at a better time! You have taught me how to craft an embellishment that I have been pondering how to duplicate since it is one of a kind and very old!I can't wait to get started!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a great project! Love UTEE in so many ways. Thanks for sharing a great tutorial with us all!
ReplyDeleteI love the heart with the key sticking out! Beautiful jewelry! Would live to try this technique.
ReplyDeleteThis is a fabulous way to use melt art! Thanks for making such an easy-to-follow tutorial. I'm inspired!
ReplyDeleteI tend to use my melting pot and UTEE the same way over and over again, but this is an idea I can definitely wrap my head around! I just need some texture treads. I didn't even know they existed!
ReplyDeleteFabulous melt art application! Thanks for posting such an easy-to-follow tutorial! I will definitely be trying this!
ReplyDeleteMy melting pot and UTEE are neglected as well. I tend to do the same thing over and over again when I do take it out, but this is one idea I can definitely wrap my head around. Now I just need a texture tread. Wonder if those Embossing Folders would work . . . .
ReplyDeleteThe result is stunning ! Thanks for sharing your process Kaz ! And thank you for the giveaway
ReplyDeleteWow Kaz, What a fantastic tutorial, brilliant.
ReplyDeleteI sell some of the things I make at local Fairs (lets me have pocket money to buy more goodies) and these broaches would sell really well, very unusual to the coloured UTEE that you can make into neclace holders, just fab.
Ta for the chance of winning a lovely prize.

Your pieces are fab!! I too love melt art and have dabbled in it for years but you have shown me some new tricks. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI love hearts! Theses are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteFab tutorial. I LOVE the boraches - the one with the key is fab. I'm going to have to get me some texture treads!! As usual Kaz, you rock!!
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous Kaz! Would it work if you poured UTEE onto a stamp? Is the texture "deep" enough? (I don't have any texture treads - am not even sure what they are!!!)
ReplyDeleteGill xx
