Thank you for sharing your technique for this butterfly creation. I was not fond of the black background. I would have preferred some variation of blue. But, each to their own personality. As a coaster for drinks or a tray for earrings, this creation has many potentials. Thank you for sharing!

[@resinnut9335]

Thank you, Car. I chose black because of the super chameleon mica powders . that was the sole reason for that color choice. Blue would have been beautiful, and I may try that next time! :)

[@resinnut9335]

Thanks, Deb! Temu has made me an influencer, but I'm not quite sure what that will mean. haha. I could order daily from them... even if I don't need anything. lol. So, I have to browse the site only if I plan on buying! Because there is ALWAYS something that I didn't know I needed. lol

@@resinnut9335 I lived in Kingman AZ for a brief time back in the mid 90s .I am very new to epoxy resin, only a few things under my belt so far, but I am already good at judging how much resin that is needed,and no issues with bubbles, I am pretty good with UV resin too,I have even made polymer beads that go with my necklaces, as I do mixed media and jewelry as well ,oh some wire work too ,I am getting ready to do wind chime, and beaded plant sticks for mothers day 😀

There are actually molds, fondant type, that recreate lace-like patterns, including butterflies.

[@resinnut9335]

Thank you, Edite. I'll have to look into those! I guess the paper saves resin, but it would be fun to create my own lace with the molds, too! Thank you!

Using an embossing ink or gum Arabic will help mica powder to stick to paper

[@resinnut9335]

Thank you, aj! I need to have some of those things on hand!

[@funo6581]

That turned out beautiful! I wouldn’t have thought to even try putting those cutouts in resin. The UV worked great, coating the whole butterfly in UV and then detail painting it with acrylics would be fun too. I’ve wondered if mixing a mica or a color shift with something like a Dura Clear varnish would work to ‘paint’ a mold.. instead of dry brushing it on? It would be easier to control, especially if it’s something like a dragons eye. I think it would need to be completely dry before pouring resin. Lia Dia has mixed glitter and Dura Clear but, I don’t think she’s mixed mica with it. It’d probably be best to try it with an old mold first.😆 Great job! Thanks for sharing such creative ideas.😊

[@resinnut9335]

Thank you, Funo! Great ideaa!! :)

[@resinnut9335]

Thank you Belinda! 😊

[@jodimarie379]

A spray adhesive might have worked or painting with a foiling glue. Embossing ink might have worked too. Also, if you used like a black pigment ink and then sprinkled with mica, that might be cool. I would check into anything that stampers/cardmakers use for embossing, stenciling, foiling.

[@resinnut9335]

Great idea! Thanks Jodi!! ❤️

[@dawnr714]

Very cute! That's a bummer your mold is matte tho. You'll have to get a new one! Or make one! 💙

QUESTION! This is beautiful! Does the resin harden the paper. These look like they are laser cut die cuts, very pretty! Have you tried the mica powders from Temu? New subbie

[@resinnut9335]

Hi Created! These do look laser cut. I have a Crìcut (still in the box. Oo) and thinking I need to learn how to use it so that I can try to do these? I literally just received a large order yesterday from Temu and will be trying their mics powder and UV resin. Will post a video of that... maybe as soon as this Thursday. Thank you! ❤️

Yes! the resin cured hard on this piece, so the paper is stiff. :)

Thanks for the tip, Denise! And thank you for watching. ❤️

[@harrychristie9146]

I think you put the butterfly in wrong side down. The side you painted is facing the black, so the final visible image is showing quite a bit of raw paper. Unless that was your intent?
