It's no secret that I loooove index card art, it was, after all how I got started in mixed media and it still holds very dear to my heart.
I was lucky enough to teach a class last week on this very subject and think my addiction for these little beauties definately rubbed off on one or two or six of the lovely ladies that attended.....
We used lots of the fabulous Dina Wakley acrylic paints, they are definately one of my favourite go to paints, the colours are fabulous and the consistency thick and luxurious.....
I just love playing on these small cards, they are inexpensive and I can experiment on them with new colours and supplies without having to worry about the end result...
One of the other paints I like to use are the Ranger Distress paints. Although thinner in consistency the blend really well and the colours coordinate perfectly with Dina's heavy body acrylics so it's a real win win for me.....
It's so easy to create gorgeous projects with a pile of index cards, a mix of beautiful paints, and a black and white gel pen.....so what are you waiting for ????
Thanks for stopping by
Have a beautiful Sunday
Bright and painty hugs
