Autumn Embossing

 kk

 Adding some Autumn art sessions after a break in our Ancient Civilization studies. Simply take cereal box cardboard and cut several shapes/designs exactly the same. Glue them on top of one another to make your embossing tool. Next wet a piece of natural/handmade paper (in a pinch, you can use toilet paper too). Gently press wet paper over your design. The kids learned they can use a cotton swab to emphasize the tiny corners.

Remove at once to dry (if you plan on creating more pieces) or let dry on your design. The paper will be raised to mimic your design.
