Butterfly Print

How we did it:
Materials List
- black puffy paint
- paper (heavier is better)
- watercolor paints
- paint brush
-
We used puffy (fabric) paint for this project so it would be thick enough to create borders on the paper. You can also use glue colored with black paint.
-
I helped my daughter to draw half of a butterfly using the puffy paint on a heavy sheet of paper. Older kids could definitely do this on their own.
-
She folded over the paper and opened it back up to reveal the butterfly. This was very exciting for her!
-
We let the butterflies dry and then got to work adding color with our watercolor paints. They really came to life as we started adding color. I may have loved this project more than my daughter!
