Tiffany Johnson Creative #100dayartplay Challenge - Day 24



Today is Day 24 of the Tiffany Johnson Creative #100daysartplay challenge.  The prompt for this week is "household items".

I started with a piece of cardboard I rescued from the recycling box.  Stripping some of the surface away to reveal the texture of the corrugation.

I painted the surface of the cardboard using two shades of Paperartsy Acrylic Chalk Paint, using "Slimed" a green shade and then "Southern Skies" a deep blue colour.

Once the surface was dry, I added extra dimension by using Ranger "Matte Distress Texture Paste" through the Tim Holtz / Stampers Anonymous stencil called "Shifter Layering Stencil - THS127".

While the paste was drying, I folded a piece of kitchen roll (my household item) and roughly cut circles into the paper towel.  I then stuck these on to the surface using wet glue.  Some of the discs were single layers and some double.

I splattered yellow and blue paint across the surface using Posca Pens.  Then mounted the piece on to dark blue card.  Finally, adding a Tim Holtz "Idea-ology Big Chat" word sticker to the surface.

  1. More great stripped cardboard and love the paint colours you used Sam, and the circles of patterned kitchen towl look great, and lots of spatters and a sentiment to finish. x
