Stamp cheerful flowers using a plastic sandwich bag and acrylic paint! A playful technique with a colourful result.
1
Take a plastic sandwich bag and tie the sealed end tightly with a piece of string.
2
Choose a few fresh spring colours and place them on a plate or paint palette. Also, prepare a sheet of watercolour paper as your base.
3
Turn the plastic bag inside out and tie the open end as well. Make sure to leave some air inside so it remains slightly puffed up.
4
Use a paintbrush to apply a layer of paint onto the bag. Ensure that the centre, where you tied the string, is right in the middle of the paint – this will form the core of the flower. You can use a different colour for contrast.
5
Press the bag onto the paper to stamp your first flower.
6
Repeat this process with different colours until your canvas is filled with flowers.
7
Use a paintbrush to paint leaves around the flowers.
8
Stamp the words “Stay wild” at the top of your artwork using a stamp set.
9
Finally, stamp “Let your dreams blossom” at the bottom, or choose another inspiring message that suits your creation.
