I need some tricks and tips!
…when doing multiple layers, is it easy to mess up? I’m hoping to embed a 3D-looking thing with song lyrics lines printed out from the computer…so could I coat those in clear nail polish first to avoid bleeding?
and what did you mix it in? It says an UNwaxed cup, so are plain old plastic cups okay? and do you have to use a different cup for each layer?
also, when embedding a clasp for a necklace, do you put the ring between the last & second to last layers? thats what I’m assuming.
