Fill the balloon with water . This image illustrates why you don't completely fill the balloon you should always leave some room in the neck of the balloon, then as the form dries the pressure has somewhere to go and your clay wont split like that.
Christmas Handprint Art - Jamie... this would make an adorable framed art piece ... You could use card stock and ship in one of those "unbendable" envelopes so whoever receives it can frame it themselves so you don't have to worry about glass breakag
Mehrfad Isvandi. Really like the fun illustrative technique. So colourful, and the concept story I really like as well... Friends relaxing and chilling while an adventure awaits below.
