Step-by-step
Step 1
First, spray the pebbles with the edding Permanent Acrylic Spray Paint in pastel blue (or any other ocean colour you prefer) and the leave them to dry.
Step 2
Once the paint is completely dry you can start decorating with the edding gloss paint markers. Use the stencil to help you draw letters or numbers on the surface.
Step 3
To give the pebbles an even greater gloss effect, finish with a coat of edding Permanent Spray Clear Lacquer.
Step 4
Make the paper boats by folding the paper according to the instructions shown. You can also spray them in the colour of your choice. Finally, decorate the boats however you wish with the edding gloss paint markers. Hints and tips: the metallic colours in the range produce a shimmering gloss effect on paper.
