There is so many chipboard letters and die cuts around that I thought I would run a few Tec-Mieks on them just to give them another feel. You would need MM Paint, foam brushes, Chip board Letter,( fancypants) a ruler, chalk ink, a stippling brush or you could scrunch up a normal brush.
I usually paint the letter on the board, these were painted in more earth colour and remember not to have the same colour next to each other in heading.
Use your stippling brush and stipple on the letter in two different colour I like to stipple in brown and another colour as it give continuity to your page with using one colour through out brown gives a more worn look to a page.
I then load paint on the side of the ruler and stamp it down on the letter a few time load paint and stamping. I use a ruler as the line are broken and uneven and I like the shabby look. It is easier to stamp with the ruler while the letter is still in their frame. Pop then out and ink the sides with brown . Youer than you. It can not be, nobody's letter will be youer than yours.
THANK YOU !!!! I WAS SO FED UP WITH MY WAY OF "PAINTING" CHIPBOARD......NOW i FEEL LIKE PICASSO
