Porcelain Paper Leaf Pin

I took my leaf stamp and colored it with three diferent markers.


After I colored the stamp, I sprayed it with water.


I stamped it 3 times on cream colored cardstock.



I colored the leaves in with my prisma colored pencils.


I cut the leaves out.




I glued the leaves one on top of eachother.








I put a layer of tacky glue over the top of the top leaf.





I smeared the glue around using my finger.





When the glue was dry I glued a pin to the back.










Last step was to put a coat of clear fingernail polish over the leaf
to make it shiny.
