Glue-Resist Spiderweb

The inspiration for today's project came from this gorgeous watercolor by Kirsten Bailey. She used a masking liquid and watercolors for her spiderweb art. I used completely different materials. Can you guess what they are?



Materials #1 and 2 are watercolor paper and white glue. Use the glue to draw a freehand spiderweb pattern on the paper. Let the glue dry overnight.

 
Use a cotton ball to apply chalk over the dried glue. I used two blues and a purple.



Cut a spider silhouette from black cardstock and glue it on the web. That's all there is to it!
