Paint it!
This paper is painted with watercolors.
I wanted to create something a bit
Kelly Wearsler-ish. Again, this is a great
project to involve kids. You will get some
quite unique papers.
Stamp it!
There are so many cute stamps out
there. Whatever you are into, there is a
stamp.
And if you don’t have a stamp? Well, use
your fingers.
Birds are a simple stamp that are great
to make patterns with.
The tree stamp is perfect for small gifts.

Glue it!
The dotted paper is made by sticking a
finger in the ink and onto the paper.
These are all great for kids.
Glue it!
I just bought a huge bag of old stamps,
love them. These stamps are glued
on with regular paper craft glue. The
bunting is made of cut stamps glued to
a string thats glued to the back of the
gift.
Face it!
These faces are made of craft paper
and comes as a set with glasses,
mouths, moustaches and bow-ties.
Great for making some quite fun gifts.

Draw it!
Cover the paper with lines made of
masking tape. Then go to work with
crayons.
Gently pull away the tape and you have
a really cool striped paper.
Tape it!
There are some really great tapes these
days, from washi to fabric tape. Here
I used wash, lace tape and patterned
post it’s.
