Craft Ideas: Colorful Paint Splatter cards for Holi | Hands on Art & Craft - Class 1 PDF Download

Material Required

1. Liquid Watercolors or glass colors
2. White card stock paper – A4 or Letter
3. Scissors
4. Happy Holi – Template
5. Straws to blow ( optional)

Directions to be followed

1. Start off by printing our Template onto white cardstock. It makes 2 cards approximately 5×7 in size from one A4 sheet. Cut along the gray border and fold to make your blank cards with text  – “Happy Holi”. You could alternately just write your own message with a black marker or even use a stamp.
   
2. Now comes the fun part. Make sure you line your workplace with a plastic sheet or newspapers. It helps to sit in the middle of the room or outdoors so that furniture or walls don’t get splashed by accident. We used liquid glass paints that came in tiny plastic bottles with a nozzle. It was easy to hold and splatter directly with it. Using vibrant watercolors and a paint brush would yield equally stunning results.
3. Start off my randomly splashing a pattern in pink. We used Pink, yellow & red. But you could use any complimentary color set of 3.
   
4. Miss P was fascinated by the free flowing patterns that emerged when different colors mixed with each other.
5. We used a brush to splatter and so we got smaller dots and smear lines. We used a straw to blow some color splats.
