-A canvas size of your choosing, mine was about 5x7
-Paint in the colors of your choosing, I used white and green
-Puffy paint in red or other color as desired
If you are wondering why part of mine looks pink it was because I was trying to paint over a canvas I had messed up just to see if It would work. You may prefer to start out on a clean slate.
I used red puffy paint to make the tree first, making it whimsical and curly. Next, I painted my canvas white, after the puffy paint had dried, with crappy cheap paint and put roughly three coats on, to very little avail. I don't mind, I love a good experiment.
After I was done coating the canvas, I came back with green and added some color to the tree. This would be fun to have multiple shades of green on hand for. I of course do not as I rarely paint anything.
Then, I finished it off with the word JOY in red puffy paint. I would have polyflaked my tree boughs...but my glitter is missing. It is really killing my soul.
Regardless of the pink showing through, I actually like this concept and it was delightfully easy. I have a few more projects in mind that I may use this for.
Happy crafting!
