Hammered Flower Prints Craft
This method allows you to directly imprint the natural pigments and shapes of flowers onto paper, creating unique botanical art. Here’s a breakdown of the process:
- Gather your materials: You'll need fresh flowers and foliage, paper (card stock works well), a hammer, and a surface to hammer on (like a piece of wood).
- Arrange your flowers: Position the flowers and leaves on the paper in the design you desire.
- Hammering: Gently hammer the flowers and leaves through the paper. The force of the hammer releases the natural pigments, staining the paper with the flower's essence.
- Reveal your creation: Carefully peel away the plant matter to reveal the transferred floral print on the paper. Have fun with this part and check out your cool flower creations that have transferred onto your card according to the reference.
- Embellish (Optional): Once the flower prints are transferred, you can add further embellishments such as inspiring phrases to send a friend a letter to encourage them.
This hammered flower print technique provides a direct and beautiful way to transfer the delicate beauty of flowers onto paper, resulting in unique botanical prints.
