Homemade Puffy Paint

Making puffy paint

What you need:

1/2 cup flour

2 tsp. baking powder

2 tsp. salt

Food coloring

Cardboard

Mix the flour, baking powder and salt together.  Add a little water at a time until you get a smooth paste consistency.  Divide your paste into 4 bowls and add food coloring.  Mix well. 

Once you have made your paints, cut out cardboard squares.  Now paint your masterpieces.  The paint can be left thick or thin.  The thicker it is though, the better effect you'll get.  Once your done painting place your cardboard in the microwave and cook for 10-30 seconds until the paint puffs.  Let it cool and your art piece if ready for display.
