Excited to be a featured artist for the Documented Life Project 2016.
This year, DLP is focused on the unPlanner and is all about simplicity. The brief was to create a Pocket Art Card measuring 2.5 x 3.5 inches using my favorite number as the theme. You can read more about the project
here and see my step-by-step tutorial below.
I started with a playing card...
I added a layer of black gesso to the surface...
Using
PaperArtsy Fresco Finish Chalk Acrylics, I covered the surface with a variety of colors...
I adhered pieces of
my Spellbinders Drip Drop die cut, and outlined them with a black gel pen to make them pop. I also used the gel pen to add a border to the edge of the card...
Given my love of circles, the number 8 has always been special to me. Using rub-ons, I embellished the card with several 8s...
The back of the card, also painted with black gesso, is now waiting for journaling, listing or plannering.
