Holly Stamps

Serve up some homemade joy with these very easy Christmas wrap & tag decos! Fun for kids, but I also recommend adults having a go!

You will need:
⋒ Acrylic paint in green & red
⋒ Blank paper & tags
⋒ Sprigs of rosemary (or similar plant)
⋒ Cotton tips (3) taped together.
⋒ Cork
⋒ Glue gun
⋒ Small wood offcuts

For the tag stamp:
1. Dip your rosemary sprig in the green paint - stamp the leaves.
2. Dip your 3 cotton tips in the red paint- stamp the berries at the base of the leaf.

For the wrapping paper:
1. [Optional] Glue gun your rosemary sprig to your wood offcut, creating a handheld stamp.
2. Dip your stamp in the green paint- stamp the leaves.
3. Dip your cork in the red paint- stamp 2-3 berries at the base of the leaves.

Check the Christmas highlight shortly for a demo! Rustic, but cute! The same technique could be applied to cards too. Tip: Sometimes it helps to do the initial stamp on a spare piece of paper to ensure your paint isn’t too gloopy, which would ruin the pattern.

Have fun!
