I needed to make a wax seal for my invitations. I used some 'FIMO Effect' modelling clay by #Staedtler in Glitter Green (though the colour doesn't matter for this particular part of the project).
I cut a small section of it off and rolled it into a ball (about the size of a conker - slightly smaller than a table tennis ball)
I then rolled it flat, allowing 1cm height
Using an ivy leaf fondant cutter, I embossed the pattern onto the FIMO, using a cocktail stick to emphasise the main lines and to add texture.
I made the edges of the stamp slightly cleaner with the edge of a knife, and my stamp is complete, ready to bake. I did this on some tinfoil in the oven at 110 degrees centigrade for 20 - 30 minutes.
The next stage was attaching a handle to make stamping easier, I had a short length of doweling rod that I stuck on using super glue. I then melted my sealing wax, which I bought here, stamped my design into it, and allowed it to cool.
