Image transfers. Oh! how I love the look of them, when they work. My track record with this technique is less than spectacular, and it has me considering showcasing my photographs in resin instead of clay. Conflicted thoughts abound!

I’ve been working on sprucing up my Etsy shop a wee bit. Over the last few weeks, I’ve made changes to my shop description, my profile, and my avatar. Today, I’m working on the banner. A version of my regular Polka Dot Creations website banner is what I am using at the moment: But since [...]
