Ease of Use: These transfer sheets are easy to apply. Simply place the sheet onto your polymer clay surface, then rinse off the paper to leave behind the transferred design. Check out this step-by-step transfer sheet tutorial and video!
Pattern Size: Each set includes four sheets, each featuring a pattern measuring approximately 4 x 5 inches.
Color Variations: Keep in mind that the colors on the digital representations seen here may appear slightly different when applied to your clay. Additionally, the baking process may introduce subtle color variations, which is normal for water-soluble transfer sheets.
Recommended Clay: For optimal results, use these transfer sheets on white polymer clay. The white background ensures that the transferred pattern stands out effectively. The clay should also be well-conditioned and sticky. Avoid using Sculpey Soufflé due to its lower stickiness.

It's recommended to use white or light-colored polymer clay as the base color. White clay works exceptionally well, as it allows the base color to show through the pattern.
