Valentine DIY Project; Lipstick Art

Valentine Lipstick Art

Materials:

a variety of pink and red lipsticks (dollar store)

drawing paper

8×10 frame

pencil

heart template (optional)

Instructions: 

First take your drawing paper and your heart template and and lightly draw a heart in the middle.

Then start at the left side of the heart and begin to “color” your heart by using bold strokes. Keep doing that with different shades of lipstick until you’re done.

The key to this technique is going outside of the pencil lines. Have fun!

Allow the print to dry for about 24 hours and then frame it.
