STEP 1
At the onset we take an A4 paper and draw two cupcakes on it. We will take 2 packets of Shilpkar resin base and hardener; mix it thoroughly to make even dough. Shilpkar is an epoxy which hardens when it comes in contact with air. We can make just about anything with Shilpkar from small sculptures to jewellery.
STEP 2
Then take the dough and roll it to make the thick slab to make the base of the cup cake. Use an OHP sheet as the base to avoid Shilpkar sticking to the working surface. Leave it till it is semi dry. Then trace the drawing on the slab and cut it according into two cupcakes. Take some dough and make the layers of cream cake to give it a 3D effect using Fabric Glue. Let it dry.
STEP 3
Using a needle/ clay carving tools make lines on the base of the cupcakes, as shown in the image
STEP 4
Then take some Shilpkar dough and roll it to make some medium thin coils. Make the word Maa in Devanagari and Mom in English, using the coils. Take some dough to make the flat base for the words, which will be then stuck on the cupcakes. Leave them to dry. We will then paint the words and the cup cakes with the base coat of Acrylic Colours White 27.
STEP 5
Once dried we will paint the cup cakes with Acrylic Colours Violet 25, White 27, Acrylic Colour Neon Yellow 011, Green 012, Orange 017 and Pink 018. Let them to dry thoroughly. Stick the magnets at rear side of the cup cakes with Fabric Glue. Leave it to dry.
STEP 6
There we have Mom cupcakes DIY fridge magnets ready. Let your imagination run wild and think of more quirky ideas to surprise you Mom! Till the next one. Ciao!
