Thanks all...the parchment seems to hold the color of the pencils & lets it bond with the liquid sculpey...and when you dip the "hot wings" ( :crackup: ) into hot water...it just slides off. All the color stays on the wings. It is really fun to see! I remember the first time I tried...I was absolutely amazed....It is such fun to color the wings...and have it transfer like that.

wow, those wings look great! But how about the other side of them, are they so shiny there too?
Thanks, They are more matt on the other side. They are translucent. I have actually brushed a thin second coat of liquid Sculpey on the back side when I wanted them more shiny & baked them again.

Jane,
You are welcome. I think I got the paper from Office Depot or Office Max...I have had it around for quite a while...so not positive. I knew the whole thing was already on TT but I figured it should be all in one place...easier to find. Searching thru 6 pages of posts was a pain...lol
Brenda, Let me now if you have any questions.

I just posted "Wings made with Liquid Sculpey" with picture & how I did them.

Here is the Wings & made with the liquid sculpey and how I did it. I know it's posted in another topic here on TT, but it's scattered over several pages of a large topic, so I thought I would put it all together in it's own topic here. 
I used a commercial art paper by Bienfang called Designer Series
Parchment No. 100 Tracing Paper for pencil, pen, markers,
charcoal,pastels. I simply traced the wings I wanted to make, using a
black colored pencils, then colored it in with various other colored
pencils. I put florist wire along the top edge on some & and all the
way around on others. I placed the parchment designs on an oven proof
glass tray and ran a bead of Liquid Sculpey around the egde of the
wings, being sure to keep the wire in place. Then I put a little more
sculpey in the center of the wings. I used a piece of wire to spread
the sculpty as evenly as possible. One set of wings I carefully added
glass seed beads along the bottom edges. I baked them at 300 degrees
for 15 minutes ( the suggested temperature from the manufacturer for
getting a more transparent look. I then removed the wings from the
oven & put them in hot water for a few minutes(which also seemed to
make the wings curve slightly,which was a pleasant surprise), and the
parchment paper slid right off the wings, leaving the color on the
wings.

I love them all. I use the one I got from you whenever I sew and there is no deterioration in the needlefelting at all from usage.

Ohhh Marion, Thanks for letting me know that...I wondered how well they would hold up!! Glad you are using it:) Yours is one of the first ones I made & the newer ones seem to be getting bigger..
Hugs &
Ahhhh, a vintage sewing machine? Yes I can see that, how lovely that would be....do you do roses? do you do all flowers? I think you have a fantabulous idea
dilu
Umm Dilu...the top pic is suppose to be a rose...a burgandy one...Lot's of flowers ones, Cactus ones, Fruit ones, even ones that look like Pies. I should get a group picture of the ones I haven't sold...I have a vintage sewing machine 
Or do you mean like flowers on stems? :doh: I just did a Calla Lily on a stem...a Rose on a stem would be cool...My thinking though was, if it could be used...not just a decoration...maybe I could sell more...

:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: Oh what fun!!! I love that movie!!! I have it on tape & dvd...lol. Needle Felted OK?

Lynette,
Just think of the creations you could come up with from your sewing room & a little glue and your book has great ideas for needle felties 
Hugs &
Thanks Dilu!! I have had the same reaction from others...maybe just sitting on a vintage sewing machine?
Hugs &
Thanks so much Lynn, the baskets take less time than the needle felted part...but then I have been weaving baskets for over 30 years & needle felting for less than 2...they take probably a full day total.
Hugs &
These are 3 of my newest hand woven/needle felted pin cushion baskets. I seem to be making them bigger than when I first started. I am having so much fun creating these!!!!
Hugs &
Plus you need more stuff...needles & wool is good for me:)Cute Kritters though!!!
