These days we are all so busy with getting things ready for the holidays.. for me this is the right moment for "quick".

I really love this quick paint technique and wanted to share it with you. I hope you can find a moment in your busy schedules for some special "me-time" and with this technique you don’t need a lot of time.

What I did for this project is determine which colors I want to use. I choose red and pink because these are the main colors in the pictures. I poored them on my paint tray and added a little water so they get "watered up’. I used a special brush to apply the paint to my project

After I painted strokes of red and pink I took a regular brush and splashed drops of paint on the project. Then put it down to dry….

When the paint is dry draw little circles around the splashes to give it more depth and ready is your background.

Wishing you all a very merry christmas and a scrappy New Year
