Blooming Ideas

🎕💜Blooming Ideas Denim Jacket💜🎕

Hello again, Patti here to share my hand painted denim jacket.

For this project I used:

ArtFoamies:

Golden GAC 900
Golden Acrylics in Titanium White, Chromium Oxide Green, and Phthalo Green
Liquitex acrylic in Medium Magenta
Winsor & Newton acrylic in Permanent Green Light
Amsterdam acrylics in Azo Yellow Medium and Pyrrole Red
Arteza acrylic in Ultramarine Blue
Round brushes in 3, 5, and 8
Paint palette
6 x 8 Stamp Buddy
Denim jacket
Newsprint
Iron

Step 1:

To begin this project I stamped my images onto newsprint and cut them out so I could play with the design and placement on the jacket.

Step 2:

Once I had finalized my design placement, I took a picture and printed the picture out so I could remember where I had placed the images.

Step 3:

I mixed the Titanium White paint with the GAC according to directions. Then I put a generous amount of the paint mixture onto my stamp buddy.

Step 4:

I stamped the images on my jacket using the stamp buddy and paint mixture.

Step 5:

I let the paint dry thoroughly, and then heat set it with my iron.

Step 6:

I started to paint in the colors, deciding along the way which colors I wanted where.

Step 7:

Once all the paint on the jacket was completely dry, I again heat set with my iron, and my jacket was complete!

💜🎕Thank you so much for following along !🎕💜

Love and Laughter,

Patti

Go + See + Explore - Art Journal Spread

Hello, everyone! It's Laura, back on the blog today. I am sharing another art journal spread, but one with a little different feel this time.

This project did not start as a journal spread. In fact, I had planned to only make an assortment of tags. But once I started going, this is the direction it led!

I really wanted to try stamping with ArtFoamies and acrylic paint into the gloss sprays. I thought it might make a cool, grungy effect, and I think I was right! I really loved how it turned out! Incidentally, I had some extra spray/paint on one of the foamies, and ended up stamping it on a tag, since it was the closest thing. When I sprayed that tag, the paint and spray I had stamped acted as a resist, and I think it made the result even cooler!

Going back to the tags, I love the way the white ink from the Moonlight Duos pops on the dark background. I've tried a number of white inks, and this is the only one I have ever been happy with.
