Can I ask you a couple of questions? When do you use paperclay as opposed to sculpey; Ditto with papermachier? What is the first layer you used with the papermachier--it looks like netting? Is it metal or cloth? Thanks again, Lili McGovernLilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00999465557188562156noreply@blogger.com
