This polymer clay tutorial gives detailed instructions on how to make a fun southwestern armadillo wall tile, including instructions to make three different canes: a leaf cane, a petal feather cane, and an southwestern triangles border cane.  In addition there are instructions on three faux stone techniques - turquoise, sodalite, & amber. The diy class also teaches how to create a custom polymer clay tile covered with the canes and faux stone to create this colorful wall art.  It requires basic cane reduction knowledge. The included canes and faux stone techniques are intermediate beginner skill. The tutorial is broken down into 7 how-to chapters - a chapter for each cane, a chapter for each faux stone technique, and a chapter for assembling the tile.  It includes a detailed overview of the basic supplies needed and a resource page with links to various sites for supplies or more information.  The tutorial is 53 pages long and has over 150 large, color pictures!

*NOTE* Many of the canes in my classes are used in various forms in other classes.  The classes are formatted around the overall project and techniques for using canes in your polymer designs.  The canes are tools using in the process and are included for convenience.  Many other free cane tutorials can also be used in my classes.
