Texture...

Texture is the theme for one of the current tag challenges at PDA.

There a many ways to bring texture to your art.

Here is one of my favorites...

I adhered a piece of a vintage sewing pattern to my tag using matte medium.

Once dry, I applied dimentional paint using a stencil.

Next, I applied two coats of acrylic paint, for this piece I used red and then blue.

Once the paint had dried, I applied a layer of gold. Sanded lightly, once dry, to expose the first two layers of paint.

Hope you had a wonderful weekend, have a great week.
