Ok,

This is probably wrong but it is how I do paper wallets or cold offline wallets;
1. buy an extra android phone
2. install electrum
3. transfer coins to electrum wallet
4. email the encrypted private keys to myself after writing the password to decrypt down on paper
5. print out on paper the qr codes and letter/number sequence for private codes
6. put this piece of paper in safe place.
7. turn off and pull battery of phone.
What do  you think about doing this blockchain? I think that is much more easier.

Blockchain.info has a pretty easy way of creating paper wallets.
It is online, using Online services to create paper wallets defeats the purpose since people with malware on their computer can get a copy of their paper wallet stolen.
