While the paper is still wet, place the plastic bag marker side down onto the top of the paper. Use your fingers to spread the color around. The more you mash, the more the colors will blend together. Once you have mashed and blended to your hearts content, let the paper dry. You can speed up this process by using a blow dryer to help with drying time.
