You can do this project in a smashbook, on a canvas or a watercolor paper. I used a 140lbs watercolor paper.

You will also need:

• Dark color paints and white and/or yellow. I also used iridescent gold paint but it's optional.
• Palette to put your paint on
• Water jar
• Water spray bottle
• Paintbrushes of a variety of sizes
• Paper Towel
