Cover the work surface with paper. Have a piece of paper from the pastel set and some kitchen towels ready to wipe the squeegee after each color.
For the fir trees, use acrylic paint to draw an upward-pointing triangle directly onto the paper to create a stylized fir tree shape.
Use the squeegee to pull the paint down evenly. This creates a semi-transparent surface.
Then, clean the squeegee with a paper towel.
Repeat the process with additional colors to create several fir trees next to each other. The shapes can overlap.
Once the colors have dried, use a black permanent marker to add details such as lines, patterns, and contours to bring the trees to life.
The Christmas trees are ready!
For the Christmas ornaments, use acrylic paint to make alternating colored dots in a line next to each other.
Use the squeegee to draw dots in a semicircle or full circle across the paper. You can do this by moving the squeegee in a circular motion or by turning the paper evenly under the squeegee. This creates colorful rings with soft color gradients.
Once dry, use a permanent marker to draw fine contours, such as borders, hangers, and bows, to make a Christmas bauble.
Then, the lettering "Frohes Fest" or "Merry Christmas" can be applied.
Finally, clean all the tools with water, then tightly seal the liners.
