Step 5: Using a Sponge: Take a small round sponge and dip it into the pink paint mixture. Before applying it to your canvas, it's a good idea to test the sponge on another sheet of paper. Once you're satisfied, use the sponge to paint clusters of blossoms on the tree branches. Vary the pressure to create different sizes and shapes of blossoms.

Step 7:

Applying Paint with Cotton Buds: Dip the taped cotton buds into the pink paint mixture. Like before, test the technique on a spare sheet of paper. Once you're comfortable, use the cotton buds to paint blossoms on the tree branches carefully. This technique offers a unique and charming appearance to your artwork.
