Materials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

-chalk pastels<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-cardstock or construction paper<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-scrap paper<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-cotton swab<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-damp paper towel or rag<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Tear scrap paper into a triangle shape for the mountain. They don’t have to be perfect, in fact, they will look more natural! This will be the stencil for the mountains. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. On another piece of scrap paper on the side, rub a chalk pastel until a small amount of dust forms. Dip your finger into the dust. Place the stencil on a piece of cardstock or construction paper wherever you want your mountain. Then rub the pastel in with a downwards motion. This will prevent the pastel from getting underneath the stencil. Blend out the bottom of the mountain to create a soft, misty effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Keep doing this for more mountains. You can use the same triangle or tear other different shapes. Keep a damp paper towel or rag beside you to clean your fingers between colours You can also layer different colours to create a sense of depth so some mountains look like they are in the distance!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. To make the tree, draw a line with pastel. Blend downwards with your finger or cotton swab. Then draw a line for the tree trunk. Draw shorter lines coming out of it for branches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the leaves and foliage, dab pastels around making small dots and dashes. Combine a darker shade for shadows. Then add white for highlights. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. To make the sun, draw a small circle with pastel. Then blend out in a circular motion. Add a darker orange or red pastel in the middle and blend slightly in a circular motion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
