Supplies needed:
-Creative Paperclay
-Acrylic Paint (we used Martha Stewart craft paints!)
-Paint brushes
-X-acto knife
-leaves for pressing
-wire for hanging
-acrylic medium (optional)
Open clay and flatten out to about 1/4" thick. press leaves into clay to create an impression. Use x-acto knife to cut around the leaves. Remove leaves and cut out a circle where you'd like to make a hanger. Allow to dry 24-48 hours.
Paint leaves with diluted acrylic paint (dilute with water, as shown above, or with acrylic medium). Paint as many washes as you need to create the desired effect. Let dry completely.
When the paint is dry, use wire to hang your masterpiece!
