Inspired by the works of Rachel Ann Austin, I realized some Christmas cards drawing on pieces of maps (white cardboard sizes 10x20cm, map scrap size 6x6cm).
To create a matte background I used Acrilyc Gesso applied with a spatula in a thin layer. The map should appear through the layer of plaster. When the plaster is dry I drew simple Christmas subjects with black ink (you can do it even with a black permanent marker), and I painted them with acrylic colors. Happy Christmas to everyone!
Adesso anche i filmati…sei davvero incontenibile! Dove le scovi tutte queste bellissime idee? Ho messo il link al tuo fantastico blog sul mio…spero non ti dispiaccia. un bacione Laura
Wonderful, simple idea. Thanks for sharing. I'll do something like this next year. I could also use for birthdayts.
HI Marilyn! Yes, will be a great idea to adapt the subject of the greeting cards!
