Have you ever found yourself stuck without beautiful wrapping paper in the house?

Have no fear- all you need is a bit of acrylic paint, a stencil and a sprinkle of fairy dust to transform whatever paper you have in your house into something truly special. In this tutorial,  I'm going to share mixed media techniques that shows you how to embellish wrapping paper using  Jessica Sporn's Hamsa stamp and Five Hamsas Stencil.  (And of course, you can use stencils and stamps from your stash as well.)

Make all your packages extra special and show that you care with handmade wrapping paper.

• White wrapping paper
• Acrylic paint
• Hamsa Stencil 
• Hamsa RubberMoon Stamp

Hey, I'm Miriam Schulman and I create mixed media art to tell stories. I also teach other people how to craft their stories with art. I give them the techniques they need to get the results they desire which brings more joy to their lives. 

My art has been published by Somerset Studio, Art of Man and the New York Times among others and collected by an international audience. When I'm not working on art in my studio, you'll find me in a museum spending time with friends or family. Explore my art at SchulmanArt.com or join the fun at TheInspirationPlace.net where you can find lots of free resources for artists.
