Course: DIY
Cuisine: Gift Wrap
Keyword: christmas, gifts, gold, gold foil, lips, sugar and cloth, valentines day
Servings: 1
Cost: $23

Equipment

  • Fine tipped paint brush
  • Brayer Roller: Optional: You don’t need a roller and stand but it does make this project more convenient for not over inking stamps when using regular craft paint.

Ingredients

  • Lip stamp
  • Craft paint in the colors of your choice
  • Gilding adhesive
  • Gold leaf sheets
  • White paper

Instructions

  • Start by stamping just one color throughout the paper.
  • Let it dry, and then move onto the next color.
  • Once all the colors have dried, use your paint brush and gold foil adhesive to make small dashes in empty spots sporadically in between the lips. Let the adhesive dry until it’s tacky to the touch.
  • Go back over the adhesive spots with small pieces of gold foil and press firmly across the foil. Rub away the excess foil that doesn’t adhere with your finger. Continue to do so across all painted adhesive spots.

Notes

  • You can make it as colorful and full as you want or stick with a more subtle minimal look.
