hi, this is joelle meijer. i will show you how to print leaves usinga styrofoam tray. reuse a styrofoam tray if possible withoutany markings on one side. remove the edges to keep only a flat sectionof the tray. draw the design of one or more leaves usinga pencil with a rounded tip. if necessary , retrace all the lines of yourdrawing a second time, pushing on your pencil to create grooves inthe styrofoam . then spread the paint evenly over the styrofoamwith a roller. avoid putting too much paint because it mayaccumulate in the grooves
and in that case your design will not be asvisible. turn the foam over on a sheet of paper andpress all over the styrofoam . enjoy the results ! if you want you can print with other coloursand you can even use several colours together; that really givesbeautiful results. print on light coloured or black constructionpaper. adding a little gold paint to the rich autumncolours adds a whole new dimension
to your projects! to create more printings later, clean thestyrofoam and the roller!
