Father ’ s Fimo

By Gill Darlington

This little selection of designs are perfect for

Father’s Day or a birthday if you want to change

the message. The card mounts are all SF03U (in

Yellow, White and Dark Blue) and all the designs

have simple backgrounds made from paper or

thin card. A selection of Pale Blue, Mid Green,

White, Dark Blue and Dark Green will make any

or all of them.

I have ribbled the background paper, grass

and sea on some of the designs using a paper

ribbler (RBL11) as this gives a lighter effect than

corrugated paper. You can use either of these, or

just leave the paper smooth.

The exact size of the background is not impor-

tant because the Fimo shapes are quite small and

will fit onto a range of background sizes. Cut the

outer paper to fit nicely onto the card allowing

room for any writing above and/or below then

glue it onto the card.

Cut the sky paper 10mm to 16mm smaller

than the background piece and glue centrally

onto it. Cut the sea or grass to the same width as

the sky, but only about one third as long. Ribble

if desired and glue over the lower part of the sky.

Note: if making the boat design, leave the top

front of the sea unglued (to make a pocket) so the

bottom of the boat can be tucked just inside it.

You will also need blocks of Fimo in a range

of colours, P.V.A. Craft adhesive and felt tipped

or gel pens. The metallic finish on the ‘DIY’ card

is made using Fimo metallic powders: Silver

(FIM11) for the tools and Gold (FIM13), Blue and

Red for the ‘DAD’ wording. If you find the

colours are difficult

to get hold of, use

just silver to match

the tools or try a

mixture of gold and

silver.

I have included

a few tips for Fimo,

modelling you may

like to read them

before starting if

you have not tried

modelling with

Fimo before.

Cricket:

Roll a small ball of dark red between your

hands then cut approximately one third of the

ball away leaving a flat side.

Actual Size

Flatten a piece of white and cut a very thin

strip from it to fit round the ball as shown in the

photo. Using the pointed end of a cocktail stick,

make a groove in the surface of the ball to take

the white strip so it will sit into the ball rather

than onto it. Gently press the strip into place and

use the point of a needle to make small angled

lines across the white strip.

Roll some dark yellow into a long sausage

approx. 3mm to 4mm in diameter. Cut three

45mm long stumps, smooth the cut ends gently

with your fingers. Using a cocktail stick, make a

dent in the top of each for the bales to rest into.

Cut off two 14mm lengths for the bales. Pinch

away some Fimo from the ends to narrow and

shape them as shown in the diagram, you may

need to trim the ends if they become elongated

as you work. Make two equally spaced grooves

in each of the bales using the cocktail stick.

Football:

Roll a ball of white approximately 2cm in

diameter between your hands then cut away the

back so you are left with a little over half a ball.

Roll out a flat area of white and cut 12-14 small

hexagons from it using the diagram to guide you.

Roll out a flat area of black and cut six hexagons

from it.

Place the ball flat

side down and lay a

white hexagon over

the topmost part in

the centre. Lay a

patchwork of hexa-

gons, three black and

three white, around

the central one as shown. Allow them to follow

the shape of the ball and gently press each into

place. Add the remaining hexagons to make the

football pattern all over the round surface of the

ball, trimming the lower ones as necessary.

Boat:

Roll out small flat areas of red, dark blue and

green and cut the sails and hull from them.

Roll a small piece of dark yellow to approxi-

mately 2mm to 3mm

in diameter and cut

off a 2cm length. Use

the point of a needle

to mark a wood grain

effect onto the mast.

Roll a small piece

of red to approx. 2mm

in diameter, hold each

end and twist to make

a spiral pattern. Cut

off a 3cm length and

place across the hull.

Actual Size

Tools:

Roll out a quantity of blue to make a fairly

thick sheet and cut the letters using a knife. Press

over the top surface with a flat ended paintbrush

or the flat end of a pen cap to make the dimples.

Using a smallish brush ‘paint’ the gold, red and

blue powders randomly over the letters.

Mould the screwdriver in blue, round off the

shank (but not the tip) of the screwdriver blade

with your fingers. Flatten the lower end of the

screwdriver handle by pressing a piece of card

across it and mark the grooves with a cocktail

stick.

Cut the saw handle from rolled out green.

Roll out some green a little more thinly and cut

the saw blade, make the teeth by pressing into

the lower edge with a cocktail stick and press the

two pieces together to join them.

Mould the spanner from a ball of green and

mark the circle lines using a needle. Mould the

hammer to shape from a ball of red. Then care-

fully brush silver powder onto the surfaces of

the metallic parts of all the tools.

Bake all Fimo designs following the instruc-

tions on the packet and allow to cool before

glueing onto the card.

Tips For Modelling Fimo:

1. Always wash your hands before using Fimo

as the slightest bit of dirt will discolour light

coloured pieces as you model them.

2. When changing to a different colour you may

need to wash your hands again, especially if

changing from a darker to a lighter shade.

3. There are two types of Fimo, Soft and Classic.

The soft version can be shaped straight from the

pack but quickly becomes sticky, especially if you

have warm hands. Classic Fimo is harder, it has

to be worked and warmed up before shaping.

If you don’t take the time to do this, the Fimo

will crumble. I’ve found that Soft Fimo suits me

better as my hands are always cold (something

never appreciated by my patients). The more hot

blooded artist will probably prefer Classic Fimo.

4. I’ve found it easiest (even for flat models) to

start by rolling a ball between the hands then

shape, mould, flatten or roll out to suit the type

of piece being made.

5. Once I am happy with the piece I press it flat

into an oven-proof tray, gently adding more

pieces to make the design as necessary, the Fimo

sticks easily together. It can then go straight into

the oven without having to peel it off a tray,

potentially ruining it’s shape.

6. Flat models don’t require the full baking time

shown on the pack, ten to fifteen minutes is all

that is needed.

7. I use P.V.A. to fix the Fimo designs onto my

cards, sticky fixers are good as well.
