I LOVE this Enamel Paint Technique! It is so easy and the results are amazing…
This is a Unique Party Favor you will want to Create!
Here’s how to make your own:
Step 1:
Die cut your Tea Cup being sure to cut two of the cup and one side section.
Step 2:
Paint one side of your die cut pieces as shown.
Step 3:
Pour small amount of glue onto a paper plate.
Mix paint into glue at about a 3 parts glue to 1 part paint ratio. Be sure to add white paint to glue also, as the glue dries clear not white.
Step 4:
Fold sections at score lines, folding away from the score line for a clean fold.
Step 5:
Spread black mixture onto unpainted side of one tea cup piece, leaving the tab to use as a handle.
Step 6:
Randomly drizzle the orange enamel mixture onto tea cup. Repeat with the white enamel mixture.
Step 7:
Using a toothpick, pull the colors through being sure to wipe toothpick off in between each pull. Add more orange and or white as needed until you are happy with the marbled result. Repeat for the other tea cup section and side section. Set aside to dry, overnight.
Step 8:
Trim the bottom tab off of the tea cup sections. Hot glue the sections together to form Tea Cup. Fill with treats.
