Top Tip
Before you start printing, check the letters in a mirror, as the words need to be arranged in reverse. If the words look correct in the mirror, the message will print the right way round!
How to Make
- Select wooden letters to spell MAZEL TOV, (or choose another greeting). To make a lettering stamp for printing, arrange the letters in a row then reverse the order, so the words are backwards. Use mini letters or bigger letters, depending on your design. Stick double-sided tape along 2 wooden craft sticks, peel off the backing paper then press the wooden letters onto the tape so they are evenly spaced. Use a separate stick for each word.
- Make more printing stamps in the same way with mini wooden flowers and leaves. You could stick several shapes together or just have individual shape.
- Put some paint in a mixing tray then use a sponge finger dabber to apply paint to the wooden letters. Press the lettering onto coloured card or a folded card to make a print. Leave to dry. Make more prints around the lettering using the flower stamps.
- Clean the letters with a wet wipe or paper towel before printing with a different colour.
- Try using different colour combinations for printed messages and designs. Wooden flowers can be used as embellishments for cards with mini flower gems.
