TOP TIP:
REMEMBER YOU CAN CREATE AS MANY DIFFERENT COLOURS AS YOU WOULD LIKE BUT PUT THEM INTO SEPERATE CUPS SO THEY DO NOT MIX!
Alternative way to create a bubble effect:
​
You can also create a bubble effect through printing using bubble wrap.
You will need:
​
+ Bubble Wrap + Paint - any colour
​
+ Paper - any size or colour + A paintbrush
Step 1: Get a small amount of bubble wrap and use a paintbrush to cover it in a generous layer of paint.
Step 2: Place the painted side down onto the paper and press firmly. Peel it off to reveal your bubble print.
Step 3: You can then add as many layers of paint as you want to create a print featuring different colours, repeating the process.
