STEP 3: Shapes
Coil - Roll a lump of clay until it's long and skinny.

 Now let's start to make a rose bloom

STEP 1:
Break off a piece of Sandtastik White Modeling Clay to use for the rose bloom.

STEP 2:
The approximate size of the white clay should be about a palmful. The size can vary depending on how big you want the rose bloom.

STEP 3:
Mold and shape the white clay using your fingers into a half bowl shape as shown in the picture.

STEP 4:
Take the clay tool from the Clay Tool from the Clay Tool Starter Set and begin to carve into the flat part of the clay starting from the middle.

STEP 5:
Continue carving into the clay using the tool to until it begins to look like the rose bloom.

STEP 6:
Break off a piece of the Green Sandtastik Modeling Clay

STEP 7:
The amount broken off should equal a palmful again. The size can vary with how many leaves you want and the length of the stem.

STEP 8:
For the stem roll a piece of the green that has been broken off into a coil.

STEP 9:
Break the remainder into smaller pieces and begin to shape them by flattening them using your fingers.

STEP 10:
Use the clay tool to trim these pieces into a leaf shape.

STEP 11:
Continue to mold the piece to smooth out the creases and holes until it looks like a leaf.

STEP 12:
You should have 3-4 leaves, a stem and the rose bloom at this point.

STEP 13:
Put them together and mold them into each other to form a rose. Let air dry to harden. When it is hard it can be painted and accepts virtually? any finish!
