Using Paint on a Layout

Hi there

The focal product at Mystical Scrapbooks this month is paint 

so I decided to create a layout using paint in different ways

I have dry brushed five colours of paint onto white cardstock to create the background

Then I stippled paint through a Colour Blast - Love and Grace stencil to add a little interest

I have used patterned papers from Uniquely Creatives Country Roads and Bella! Wedding 

I have painted chipboard and also heat embossed chipboard.

Dusty Attic Mini Tags #2

Memory Maze Live Every Adventure

Dusty Attic String Frames Small

The title is cut from black cardstock using an alpha die with a coat of Glossy Accents

A scribbly border was drawn around the layout using a black pen.

Here are a few suggestions of ways you could use paint on your projects:-

Paint metal embellishments

Colour chipboard

Apply through a stencil

Water down and use as a wash

Blending and shading

On Acetate

On Velum

Dry brushing

Layering

Add sand or other to give the paint texture

Stipple

Splatter

Apply with a palette knife

Detailing using a fine brush or paint pen

Add a watered down coat to loud patterned paper to tone it down

Colour your Texture/Modelling paste

Stamp using Foam Stamps

Heat emboss over paint

Here is my process video showing how I have used paint on this layout

Would love to hear of ways that you use paint on your projects.

Till next time

Thanks for spending part of your day here with me

Stay safe

Hugs
