Acrylic Album Fun by Donna Gray
00:00
Hi
everyone,
Donna
here today with a new acrylic and MDF album featuring a window.
This
is the completed front of it, there’s rather a lot to mention here so I’ll try
and keep it brief so you get the general idea!
The
front cover was created using Fresco paints, That’s Crafty! cogs Dinky stencil
which I put Decoart Modeling paste through, Decoart sand texture was added to
the corners to create some more texture.
A
mixture of Prima and Crafters Companion stamps were also used, a little bit of
Treasure wax gold was also applied to highlight the details.
This
is the inside which matches the front cover with the addition of some very nice
white paint splattering which is fun…..until you discover that you’ve coated
everything else on your table with it! I used black Archival for the stamping
on the MDF.
I
treated this album like an acrylic stack rather than stand alone pages so I was
careful with the placement of the images to get the 3D effect.
I
used the MDF panel as the back of the album and this is where I created the
background with Fresco paints, applied with an old credit card, Dinky stencils
used with Distress inks. The stamps are Tim Holtz, Carabelle, PaperArtsy etc
stamped with Stazon black ink.
The
images where applicable were coloured with Fresco paints which dry brilliantly
on the acrylic as they’re chalky and quick drying.
Finally
this is the back of the album which I painted in a black Fresco paint, stamped
the Tim Holtz image in Versamark and heat embossed in white.
Supplies Used:
Hope
you like it

ReplyDeleteYes, that is the danger with spattering - but it's so worth it! This is brilliant, Donna.
