AAH - How I use Model Magic. 10/11/19 - Selling Art/Making Art/Creative Process/How to Over the years a common review of my videos brings up the material I love the most. Model Magic is a modeling clay So many people over the years have asked questions about using this clay that I have come up with some popular questions and answers.  Q: What is Model Magic?

Hello my name is Nicole and welcome to my blog, in this post I will list 3 projects and a link to my video where I am creating the Mother Goose tag.

I like creating mixed media, ever since I took a class on it in college.

Tonight I created a wall hanging from a wooden frame I bought from AC Moore. I used flowers from my local discount store, not Dollar Tree. The paper is Prima's Something Blue paper pack. I cut some of the journal cards out to stuff into the pocket I made. I made the pocket by gluing three journal cards together and embellished them with washi tape on the sides. I painted the frame with gold paint and while it was wet I poured glitter onto the frame. I love how this turned out and will go right onto the wall in my room.
