  • Photo paper (matte or gloss) or cardstock, or regular paper for your printer plus a heavier weight paper to glue the print to.
  • Scissors to cut the designs out
  • An embossing tool (or rounded toothpick or non working ball point pen)
  • A circle template to emboss the plates against to create a raised edge (or you can use the top of a suitable pill bottle, or other suitably sized round object with a lip)

  • Gloss or Matte Acrylic varnish or coating to protect the ink
  • Tweezers to hold the cup while you glue it.
