Butterfly in the Flowers

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?
