Instructions:

  • Paint the BACK of the leaf using a colour they desire. The BACK of the leaf has veins and stem that are most prominent so it make a better imprint
  • Press the painted leaf down onto the blank paper PAINT-SIDE DOWN
  • Rub gently over the entire leaf to transfer the paint evenly
  • Gently peel the leaf off the paper to see the beautiful imprint
