Way too much fun

So this week's Stampin' Dymonz challenge is "credit card painting," which I'd never heard of and now really adore. I haven't really touched art paints since high school (which would be 15+ years ago...crap!) so I went to the local craft store and bought some cheap-o acrylic paints so that I could play. I always get overwhelmed by the choices, so I asked my fabulous husband to help choose the colors (he has a real color-sense!) and between that and my being sorta hungry, I ended up with Plum, Pure Pumpkin and Apple Tart.

The challenge is to use 3 colors plus a metallic paint, so I used Frost (silvery-blue) glimmer mist. I poured the liquid onto the paper just like I did the paint...it works great, but is VERY messy and you need to work fast! A heat tool was helpful too.


I made three sheets over the past week...I forgot to flatten them, so I clipped them onto this lace curtain...you get the idea.

Here's the one I'm entering into the challenge:

I used the tutorial at Go Make Something, and was very very much inspired by all the ladies who participated in this challenge (including the hostess!).

Supplies: stamp from StudioG, Hammermill white cardstock, Memento ink, CraftSmart acrylic paints, Tattered Angels glimmer mist, AARP card (sigh.)
