Maker’s Movement sent me the Nesting Doll die set. I decided I wanted to try something a little different with the dies. I wondered, can you actually stamp with a die? The answer is yes, well, kind of. Doing so leaves a light image but it is enough to work with and I make this sweet keychain using the technique.
Thank you to Maker’s Movement and Grafix
for providing materials that are used in this project.
Materials:
- CrossOver II
- Nesting Doll Die Set
- Grafix shrink film in white
- Alcohol ink markers
- Paint markers
- Black thin line marker
- stamp pad
- washi tape
- keychain element
- jump ring
- 2 jewelry pliers
- UV Resin
- UV light
- toaster oven
Directions:
To begin, I clipped the pieces of the die apart that I needed to work with. Then I cut out the doll shape from the Grafix shrink film.
Video Tutorial:
Look at the difference in size from the die (the original size) to the shrink film after baking. Not only did the size change but the colors got more intense.
