MacKenzie-Childs Flower Market Napkin Charms....

Here's a quick and easy craft for Valentines Day:  

The supplies you need are:
a paper napkin
sculpey clay
cookie cutters
scissors
rolling pin
nail polish remover and make up pad
mod podge
parchment paper 
oven
skewer
string

I used a MacKenzie-Childs paper cocktail napkin:


Roll out Sculpey Clay about 1/8" thick and cut out shapes with a cookie cutter:


Separate the paper back from the napkin front:


Lay a piece of the paper napkin over each clay piece....




....and using a gently soaked pad in nail polish remover, use it to pat the napkin onto the clay until it adheres.


Turn over and cut away excess napkin:


Carefully, using a skewer, poke a hole in the top center:



Place them on a sheet of parchment papered cookie sheet and bake for about 15 min at 250°, flipping them over halfway through baking.


When cool, apply two coats of Mod Podge to add a glossy finish:


These are perfect little "tie-on charms" for little gifts:


A candy bar surprise for a friend....



....or a special surprise for your Valentine:
