Why
Color Wonder™ Glitter Paint is already in the brush—and looks clear until the colors appear on Color Wonder Paper. This bright summer scene sparkles with creativity and leaves no mess!
Steps
- 1. Unfold your huge sheet of Crayola Color Wonder Paper. Remove the plastic pegs from your Color Wonder Glitter Paint Brushes so the paint can flow.
- 2. Start with a flower or butterfly—there’s room for both to be larger than life! To make daisies like the one shown, paint a circle first. Fill it with dots and shade one side. Draw oval petals in a different color. Fill them in with paint. Add green leaves and a stem. Flowers glow in bright colors and glittery paint!
- 3. Paint a butterfly dancing above the flowers. Start with a middle line. Outline the wings around it. Decorate the wings and body with bright lines and dots of paint.
- 4. Have fun adding grass, clouds, a sun, or maybe a tree or mountain in the background. Air-dry the paint. Where will you hang your sparkling scene?
