Well, We Tried

I saw this project in Family Fun magazine (June/July 2012 - Gorgeous Glue Prints, page 86) and thought it would be perfect for art. All I can say is that we tried...again and again and again and again. Maybe Tessa didn't squeeze the glue hard enough. Maybe we didn't choose the best colors for the paint and paper. Who knows? It just didn't turn out quite as expected.

Tessa painted the dried glue design that she created on cardboard earlier in the day.

She lightly pressed a piece of construction paper onto the painted surface per the instructions.

Well, hmm. That didn't turn out quite right.

I *think* this one came out the best. Maybe not.
