Abstract
There are described devices for creating artistic designs which are simple in approach and execution, and which enable the user to create a unique work of art without the user coming into direct contact with the medium used to create the design. The subject devices comprise a first sheet and a second sheet, the sheets being in superposed relation, sealed around their periphery and defining a first area and a second area, a plurality of rupturable containers containing a spreadable medium, arranged in the first area and adapted to discharge the spreadable medium into the second area, provided that at least one of the sheets permits the viewing of the discharged spreadable medium. A kit is also provided which includes the subject device and additional materials, such as, for example, decorative materials for application to the device and materials with which to attach the device to various surfaces.
