Perfect size for crafting gift cards or framed prints , tare into smaller pieces if you wish to make small note cards and scrapbook embellishments.
Experiment exposing at different lengths of times to gain various depths of blue. Try different plants or write on glass to make art prints.

All kits come with free tutorial inspirational videos to walk you through step by step how to use this kit and some ways to be creative from making paper stencils to changing the blues to sepia with kitchen ingredients.

Making prints is fun and easy simply take your kit to a dimly lit space, remove one sheet from your kit and sit it on top of a sturdy surface place the plants you wish to print on top of the treated paper place your cellphone bag on top to hold plants in place and use a clothes peg to secure your layers.
Or alternatively substitute the cellophane bag with a piece of clean glass from a old picture frame. ( this works well because the weight helps the plants to contact the paper )
Parental supervision advised here.

Now you are ready to expose your paper to Ultraviolet rays , the sun is a perfect source for this, expose for 5-20 minutes or until your paper turns beige the longer the exposure the deeper the blue will develop in the water stage. Patience is key.

After exposing in the sunshine carefully carry your set back to your dimly lit space to remove objects , rinse your paper in cold running water making sure not to rub the paper. Pat dry and allow 24 hrs to develop to its full colour depth of beautiful blue.
Optional : fast track this step with a few drops of hydrogen peroxide in developing water to speed up the oxidisation.
