I love fun crafts that my kids enjoy making, but that I also love enough to hang on the wall, and today I have just that.

Here's what you need:
- Craft Dots™
- Die cut machine
- Watercolors
- White cardstock
- Picture frame (optional)
- Black cardstock
Here's what you do:
Using your die cut machine, create your black cardstock silhouette shapes. We used a few different ones to fit my daughters' ages and interests. (For example, my middle daughter just learned to ride a bike, so she wanted a bike on her picture.)
Have your child use watercolors to paint different colors horizontally (like stripes) across the page. My three daughters were all able to do this. They are different in age and skill levels and I love how each piece of art turned out!
Using your Glue Dots, adhere your cardstock silhouettes onto the dried paintings.
(Optional: place in frame) Hang on the wall! I love how I see my children's confidence grows when they create their own works of art! An added bonus; this one is perfect to hang up in your home too!
