I have used Fevicryl mouldit clay to make designs. Read the instructions mentioned on the pack properly before kneading the dough. Take both packs from fevicryl mouldit, Resin Base and Hardener. Mix them to form even dough. Care should be taken to avoid mixing the Resin Base and Hardener in unequal proportions, as it will result in improper curing and hardening. Apply oil on your hands before kneading the dough. Once your dough is ready, take a small portion of dough and roll it between your palms to form different shapes as per your choice.

Mix acrylic color as per your choice. Take any plastic square shape cutout to make a cone. Fill the color in the cone and seal it properly. Your homemade 3d outliner is ready. Now you can use it on any surface. Make sure that cone is sealed properly so that it will not dry.

  • Can be used on any surface – 3d Outliners are very useful if you want to create patterns on any surface. You can use these 3d outliners on any surface such as glass, fabric, paper, wood, and marbles or on clay pots etc.

Now choosing color to highlight the design is very much important part. Acrylic pearl colors are best choice to give antique look or emphasize the design. I have used pearl green to highlight the leaf and pearl pink for bottom part of vase. Golden always look rich, I have used golden to highlight the design which I have done with 3D outliner. The best part I feel when golden comes with the combination of cyan color. Although these are my color choices, you can definitely try your imagination.
