Description

Need something for a Spring or Fall craft, Earth Day anyone ? Color diffusing paper leaves fit the bill.

What is Color Diffusing Paper

Color diffusing paper is a versatile craft paper with a fabric-like texture that absorbs and blends watery liquids in wonderful ombre effects. It is available in various large precut shapes suitable for many educational activities, seasons and celebrations. See all the listings for paper hearts, paper flowers, paper feathers and paper sheets for cutting your own shapes.

Using Color Diffusing Paper

With the color diffusing paper leaves ready to go, assemble your paints, inks, watercolors or markers. You’ll need pipettes, eye droppers, or brushes to apply the liquid colors. Also, you’ll need a small spray bottle of clear water if you are using washable markers.

Lay the leaf shapes on a tray or surface covered in newspaper, plastic or a drop cloth. The paper will absorb a fair amount of liquid, but some may seep through underneath so protect your surfaces.

Color Options Galore

Many types of water based colors can be used. Try these:

  • Water colors
  • Food Coloring
  • Tempera paint
  • Dyes
  • Washable markers (draw directly on paper and drip, splatter or paint clear water on top – a good option for toddlers with the least mess!)

How-To Techniques

Drip and drop watercolors, inks, food colors or other watered down paint using either pipettes, eye droppers or brushes. Watch the colors merge and mingle and diffuse all over the paper.

Simply change the colors and create a whole new look from spring leaves, to fall leaves, to exotic and creative leaves yet to be discovered.

  • Paint colors directly using a brush
  • Drip colors with pipettes or eye droppers
  • Splatter colors with a toothbrush
  • Dip an edge into the colors and watch it creep up
  • Wet the paper first with clear water and drip colors on top
  • Draw on paper with white crayon or pastel first to act as a resist, then color (secret messages anyone…)

Use for Decorations

Use your beautiful diffusing paper leaves to decorate a bulletin board, adorn your windows or hang from the ceiling. Once dry add further embellishment with glitter or markers. Make a garland. Use in place of a bow on a gift. Let your imagination soar!
