Need Help with coloring

[thefamilycloset]

I am working on a project for my daughter's class. They will need to color, paint almost a full 8.5 X 11 white paper and then stamp on it.

Any ideas for the quickest cleaniest way to do this?I want to use SU colors.

Do you have any reinkers?
This is a bit messy... but quick. You take a small plastic tub (like a re-used sour cream container) put a few tablespoons of water, then a few drops of reinker, then have them paint the CS either with a sponge painter or brushes. You can also have one student at an ironing board to iron and dry them after they're painted. Have a lot of paper towels at hand too.

You could also use the entire ink pad to color the CS... but that'll beat your ink pads up pretty good.

Hope this helps!

I am going to give this a try before doing it with the kids.

I was watching our one and only craft show here and they use cling film. You can do two sides at once with this method. First take some cling film and lay it out on the table. Next use some water base markers and kinda spread some colours around on the film. Next take a spray bottle and give it a few squirts of water. Not too much. Then you kinda crinkle it up to help spread the colour a little. Then open and lay out on your card or paper. Spreading it out. Once you take off the cling film the colours should transfer to your paper or card. You can do two sheets of cling film one ontop of the other and then put two pieces of card between That way you get two done at the same time. I hope I haven't confused you too much. And good luck on your project. You can dry with a hair dryer on low.
