In reply to Sherry. No Sherry, I have not tried this project on canvas. I don't think the salt painting would last, and canvas is not typically used for watercolor painting. Let me know how it goes if you give it a try!

In reply to Deanna Lyles. Hi Deanna, great question, but no. You do NOT need to wait. Raised Salt painting is done with the glue still wet. I'm sorry that I did not make that clear. :)

Does the glue and salt portion need to dry completely before you being with the watercolors?

In reply to Brooke.

I’m so sorry you have had trouble, Brooke! I assure you that the link is good. 🙂 Let’s try using a backdoor trick… do you see the search field at the top right of my blog in the header section? Have your password ready and search “Art Template Downloads.” When it pops up click on the title to open the download page then type your password in the box at the top of the page. This is how I usually access it. Crossing my fingers it works for you too!

I received the password, but the link to get the shamrock is not working? I would love to do this with my class this week.

In reply to colleen. Sure, Colleen! Eye droppers should work just fine. Give it a go!

Will eye droppers work?

In reply to Linda Alvira. Sorry Linda, no. I did not remove it from the original piece of cardstock that my daughter painted it on. She has been working with transferring water and paint in pipettes for a long time now so she has a steady hand. I often have her water the house plants with a cup of water and a pipette. Yes, the plants need more water than that... it's just good practice that keeps her busy for a while ;)

Do you just pick it up off the paper/cardboard when you are done?
I don’t see any background splatter or marks – so you must have removed it from what you drew the shamrock on, correct?
