I'm finding it harder to use scrapbooking 12x12 paper for my card making. I want original and unique paper. I have so many sheets of designer paper so why wouldn't I use some of that to make something new rather than using plain white card stock to start with? I went into my stash and chose patterns that I have lots of or that I am not too thrilled about.
I chose the tools of the trade which are a collection of various paint brushes and tooth brushes.
Some acrylic paint with a couple of plates to use as palettes. A spray bottle to thin the acrylic paint.
I chose several sheets of designer paper. I covered my kitchen area with a blue plastic sheet to prevent splattering the nearby surfaces. You can see the before and after pictures below. I just loaded my paint brushes with color and flicked the brushes toward the paper.
To the left are the 4 sheets that I decorated. I think the light sheets have been very effective. The orange and yellow ones I am not sure they are as effective.
This new interface for blogger - I had to make sure that I chose a placement then I could have my text go beside my images.
Resizing is better and more adjustable.
Labels are a nightmare! It is very slow and eventually it did not find labels which I know are there.
The orange sheet works for me. Its subtle, yet full of colorful pizazzz.
