So I have been having a fabulous time experimenting with mediums on chipboard since I got my happy mail from Blue Fern Studios. There are so many things to do to chipboard besides leaving them naked...*winks*
You can colour them with Ranger distress stains and crackle paint in rock candy for a cool well-weathered effect.
You can just paint them a solid black with liquid acrylics OR even work in a tonal effect.
Just a layout of my dad and his grandsons on his birthday. Based on the July sketch at Blue Fern Studios. :)
P/s: Come play along with my guest Tone-Lill's challenge - it ends on Friday! :)
This is so fabulous, Yvonne!! I absolutely love the background!! The splatters are so fun!! And the way you cut the pictures to come out of the frames - awesome!! And the chipboard looks amazing, too!! Love it!! Have a great day :)
