**Let me start off by saying that I know the pieces in the photo are ceramic and not polymer - I just really like the way it looks**

I had to put my sweet old cat down on the 10th and I did some polymer clay paw prints on her last day. I was going to paint them solid and put gloss on them, but I came across these when looking something up for a different project, and I’m wondering if anyone knows a trick to achieve this look with polymer clay. Specifically how it looks like the color is deposited and almost beaded up within the piece and not touching the edges… I’ve tried painting some samples and then rubbing the dry paint off the edges, which is okay, but still* *not quite right. Any suggestions?
