after being put out in the rain










p.s.  There's a Klutz Glossy Bands give-away going on at Ordinary Life Magic (Too.).  Three kits to give away!

  1. Ok, that rolled-up paper art must be shown to certain kids I know tomorrow. It's gorgeous! Your days always look so beautiful.

  2. What did you use for the rain picture? Is it watercolor pencils? Or special paper? I'm intrigued!

  3. Eidolons - Yeah, watercolor pencils. First we drew, then set them outside.
    After they blended (Maddie made one, too, but she didn't like how it turned out, so I didn't show it), we brought them in and put liquid water color over it, and set them out again.
    When we brought them back in we blotted the water and blue off a bit with a paper towel.
    It was a fun project! :)
