Anyone know how to create a "brush" in flash that the user can use to paint with?

I currently have a bitmap inside a movieclip - on the layer on top of that is a rectangle which is also a movieclip set to alpha 75% - this lets the colour of the rectangle affect the bitmap. All good.

Now what I want to do is allow the user to select a colour from a colour picker and "scribble" over the movieclip, this in turn would change bits of the rectangle movie clip to let the different colour shine on top of the bitmap.

Anyone any advice on how best to do this...
