Project Details
Create a pretty winter landscape with Spectra® Bleeding Art Tissue and Dixon markers!
Lesson Plan Ideas
Have each child create nine cards. Have them keep one of their own and trade the other eight with classmates to make a unique collection. Have them glue their collections on to a 9" x 12" piece of Tru-Ray® Black Construction Paper.

Steps
-
Cut watercolor paper into 2-1/2" x 3-1/2" cards. Draw large and small trees on the cards with a Redimark® Black Permanent Marker.
-
Brush water on cards and apply 1" cut Spectra® Art Tissue squares. Overlap squares. Leave the bottoms of the trees in the “snow”. Don’t cover them entirely with tissue or they will look like they are in the sky.
-
After a few minutes, remove tissue paper. Let dry.
-
Use the Dixon® White Paint Marker to add drops of snow.
