Kids’ Rub Art 2: Flower
Today I’ll show you how you can turn a cheap plastic placemat into a delightful textured floral template. And you’ll see its potential as a medium once you start making the impression on paper.
Materials:
- textured plastic mat or whatever textured plastic
- scissors
- plastic foam board
- metal ruler, cutting knife (to cut board)
- glue gun
Let’s begin…
Step 1- Find whatever textured plastic you can use to make your floral template. I got this sample placemat from Japan Home for $1.50 SGD
Step 2- Cut the part of mat you want to use for your template.
Step 3- Adhere unto plastic foam board using a glue gun.
There you go- you just made a beautiful textured floral template.
Now your ready to rub that image unto paper.
Option 1: acrylic paint, bright coloured paper, paint brush
Steps for Option 1:
1. Brush acrylic paint onto template.
2. Put bright coloured paper on top of template and apply light pressure using roller to make the impression.
*First sample impression using ACRYLIC
Option 2: colored pencils
*Second sample impression (on the right): using colored pencil
* If you’re feeling adventurous, once paint has dried add details using either markers or dimensional craft paint like PUFFY.
