Hi everyone. This month we are Acrylic Painting on Coloured Cardstock.
Videos:
How to Stamp on Paint with Perfect Results by Andy Skinner (9:37)
Supplies:
- Coloured Cardstock
- Stamps - Outline Images
- Archival ink (Ranger) - light gray, black
- Acrylic Paint (all brands work)
- Paint brushes
- Sentiment stamps
Technique Instructions:
- Start by stamping your image in light permanent ink (Ranger Archival works great). Watering Can Gray used here. Leave your image in your stamping platform!
- Decide which parts of the image you want to colour and use your acrylic paints and paint brushes to fill them in. Make sure your painting is opaque and doesn't go over the lines of the image.
- Once your image is dry, stamp again using Black Archival ink. Check image and stamp again if you need to make the image stronger in places.
- Let it dry before touching your image.
These instructions are listed on the sidebar by technique for easy reference.
