This week Nunn Design is featured in a lovely spread in Cloth Paper Scissors Magazine. I highly recommend picking up a copy of this issue because the tutorial is exclusive to the magazine and streamlines all these techniques into one easy read. This will walk you through creating this look by featuring the Nunn Design tutorials that have previously posted in our blog. Enjoy creating!
#1 Faux Porcelain Transfer Sheet
A similar technique was featured prior on our blog as a Buy & Try using UV resin. The jewelry samples featured in Cloth Paper Scissors features the use of Castin’ Crafts Colorants to colorize the Nunn Design 2-Part Resin that is applied over transfer sheet image. See the tutorial below to see how this was done.
Learn How Here:
- For a tutorial showing how to apply the transfer sheets onto Crystal Clay and then finishing with Gel du Soleil, a UV resin, see this post.
- For a tutorial on how to use Nunn Design 2-Part Resin with Castin’ Crafts Colorants, see this post. (NOTE: This tutorial shows pouring the colorized resin over a texturized Crystal Clay…but you will get the idea of what to do for pouring over a transfer sheet instead).

#2 Faux Porcelain Rubber Stamping
The same is true for these pieces. We had featured a tutorial on our site with our Buy & Try Faux Porcelain where I showed how to rubber-stamp onto Crystal Clay and then apply Gel du Soleil, a UV resin. Here, the only difference is that I used Castin’ Crafts Colorants to colorize the Nunn Design 2-Part Resin to pour over the rubber-stamped Crystal Clay instead of the UV resin.
