ACRYLIC PAINT SCRAPE

 This is a fast and easy way to build up your supply of background papers and uses only acrylic paints and sturdy cardstock. Because the paint is applied so thinly, it dries almost instantly so you can keep creating them and stacking one on top of the other. I have used a white 200gsm(ish) card as my substrate and used a variety of paints - Born brand from Officeworks, Jo Sonja, Amsterdam paints (their metallics are gorgeous!) and even colour shift paints. Because this technique is done on plain cardstock, you can even emboss on them as the heat doesn't affect plain cardstock like it does with synthetic or photo paper. This would have to be my favourite go-to background which always looks impressive.
