Roll the clay to the thickness of piecrust
I always like a straight edge so I can have a clean line on one side. Then cut off the excess
You should pounce your brush all over the clay to texture it
Put the frame and clay base together. Press firmly to smoosh the clay around the edges
Take your Mortar tool & stylus out.I made my mortar tool from a old plastic card that came in the mail. You can use a skewer for cleaning the lines. Use sand paper to round the tip off so it won't be too pointy
Put the frame back on this so as it dries, the base won't warp
