There is really no technique to it, just a little shaping.
All very basic and quite simple. It is only the split shading that gives it that "stenciled" look. I got the idea while looking through a craft magazine. I saw some stenciled roses and wondered what they would look like in polymer clay. I think it is the distortion cause by using Sculpey that gives it character. I used Judith Skinner's method of gradient shading(I think everyone knows what this is?) I used a small round tool (like a knitting needle, 1/4" or smaller in diameter) to shape the petals. (Hope I can remember this part.....) Take one petal and place one long edge against the center piece length-wise. Then, slightly round off the outer edge to a more petal shape. Some observations: I rolled waste clay into balls and covered them with a thin sheet of white, then added the slices. Arlene Thayer© 1998 Arlene Thayer. Polymer clay eyeball beads.

A suitable project for people new to polymer clay, using simple cane work and minimal specialty tools.

Measurements are totally dependent on your preference of size and quantity. Clay-dedicated pasta machine or an acrylic roller. In a pinch, a glass jar works, too. Tissue blade.

I like Fimo Classic. A lot of people like Sculpey (which is much easier to find at brick and mortar stores, and usually cheaper) or Fimo Soft, as these clays are much easier to work with in the short term. Fimo classic really has to be worked a lot with your hands to get it to a malleable state. However, I find that the softer clays, especially Sculpey, smear when you cut them--even after being refrigerated. Also, the more vibrant colors have a tendancy to rub off onto your hands and contaminate the paler shades.
A good craft store will have a lot of different shades to choose from. For this flower, I've chosen a green center with blue petals on a white background.
