Prints

Children's Literature - Dia L. Michels

Simple instructions and step-by-step illustrations make these crafts easy, and the project hints are fun. The different methods are presented on facing pages, and a getting started section lists all the supplies you'll need. In Prints, you'll use sponges, vegetables, cardboard, erasers and more to create your own prints to be used in designing a gift bag, a greeting card, or a T-shirt. These hints will spark your imagination, and you'll have countless projects. This book is part of the "Kids Can Easy Crafts Series."
