A fun technique to share

Today I tried out a technique I learned on PINTEREST.

 

supplies: 

watercolor paper

watercolor paints

stencils

 

I just used the stencils I had on hand.

I looked at the dollar store, hoping to find some

children's ones - like zoo animals

but no luck there.

 

My plan was to see if it would be possible

for my grandchildren to do.

A successful technique with watercolors?

 

This one got kind of runny and messed up.

using the right amount of water is important.

 

but some sketchy outlining saved it somewhat.

 

Its easy to mix colors.

 

Yes, I think the grandkids can do this!

I'm thinking the images could be cut out and made into a greeting card, or place cards or a bookmark.

 

 

You might see me at Joann's checking out the stencils tomorrow.
