Ruth loves to make books She showed us how to use those tiles we have tucked away . Transfers, or stamps her imagination flies.
To do those books you need 2 sheets of cured clay of your choice, transfers, embellishments , ribbon or elastic for closing, glue ( white or E6000). The sheets can be a single thickness ( largest of your pasta machine, or double , 1 thick the other thinner or 2 number 3 thickness depending on your project).
Bristol paper. Bone folder. A ruler. Something to make holes.

Ruth nous a montré comment faire des petits livres.
Les étapes: fabrication de 2 plaques pour le devant et le derrière. Épaisseurs variantes selon ce que contiendra le livre et sa grosseur:
1 épaisseur sur votre machine pour un mini livre, 2 épaissseurs pour un plus large ou 2 épaisseurs de numéro 3 assemblés. Attention aux bulles quand on a 2 épaisseurs quand on les assemble. Bien presser ensemble. Les pages sont faite à partir d'une feuille de bristol. Ruth utilise surtout du noir qui fait très classe.
De la colle blanche ou la E 6000
Une règle et un brunisseur ,quelque chose pour percer.
Plier le pâpier en accordéon. Coller .

April Meeting/ Rencontre d'avril
Pour ce mois-ci nous aurons à notre rencontre du mardi 9 avril une démo sur comment faire une base( armature) pour faire un personnage.
Voici le message de Sandra à ce sujet.
N'oubliez pas de travailler sur le challenge un macaron identificateur.
Celles qui veulent compléter notre courte pointe muralle collective peuvent apporter leurs triangles ( 3X3X3 po) et les remettre à Gaby. Toutes techniques bienvenues.
Hi,
Here is the info for Sandra's demo on art dolls for our April 9th meeting.
1) Sandy will be demonstrating how to create a basic armature and discussing a bit about how to use that armature for art dolls and other sculpture. If you wish to work along with her, bring some wire-working tools and some clay (this could just be scrap clay, or a light-coloured clay if they wish to begin working on a doll). Some smoothing and shaping tools would be beneficial, however, most things can be done with a medium-sized knitting needle and a toothpick. Also a roller to roll their clay if they need.
Sandy will be providing the materials needed for the armature. If there’s anything else you need to know, please just e-mail Sandy.
2)We will have another challenge for the May meeting- to make a nametag using clay (and anything else).
Challenge of the month/ Le challenge du mois
Will be a name tag for May
Le challenge du en mai :Faire un macaron ou épinglette avec votre nom.
