Wow, this sounds like an exciting technique! Thank you so much for sharing
it and I look forward to seeing it in Polymer Cafe magazine.

Dear poly friends,

I developped a new technique to tranfer Jones Tones foil to inked clay!
First you photocopy a nice picture with a toner base ink , then you apply
the copy face down on your clay. You burnish slightly and you apply

acetone
( in your hardware store) with a Q-tip. The transfer on clay is instant.
Then you place the piece of Jones Tones foil nice side up, you burnish one
or two time each side with the sharp side of your slicing blade . Then you
rip off the foil and Voilà!!!! the metallic part has transfered only to

the
inked part! :-)
I wrote an article on the subject in the december issue of Jewelery

craft
magazine (page48)
As written in the article you can also transfer the image with
Trichloroethylene (TCE) but acetone is less noxious and more widely
avalaible in the US
An another article is ready to be published in polymer café magazine.

Have fun with that new technique !
