Create these distinctive gift wraps with snowflake and scalloped-circle cookie cutters on solid-colored paper. Make intriguing patterns by stamping the shapes — either joining or overlapping — in acrylic paint on the paper.
DIRECTIONS
1. Dip the cutting edge of a cookie cutter into white heavy body acrylic paint (sold at art stores in 4-oz. tubs).
2. Stamp the cookie cutter onto a sheet of paper, starting at a top corner (below right). If the paint is too thick or lumpy, add a few drops of water and stir gently until thinned and smooth.
3. Repeat the process, lining up or overlapping the shapes, to create simple patterns. Allow paper to air-dry thoroughly before wrapping gifts.
