I am taking part in a year long challenge with the group at Maremi Creative Cafe ...the aim is to to alter a playing card (from an ordinary standard pack of playing cards) each week with each one being themed by using a letter of the alphabet.
So we started week one with the letter A...is for Art.
For all the cards I start out with a base layer of gesso (I gessoed a dozen to start me off so they are ready when I am ready to start) and then for this one I added some decoart acrylics in multiple colours over the top. I stamped the paintbrush stamp (from VLVS) and the wording (from Chocolate Baroque) onto white textured paper and added colour to them. I adhered the brush to the card with matt medium and then added some more acrylic paint which I allowed to drip off the ends of the brush. Once that was dry I adhered the words and ink edged the card to finish it off.
I hope you like it, I had fun making it.
Week two to follow very soon...
Until next time, take care
