Lisa's Paints & Pastes Notebook

Hello, Lisa Hoel here! Our current Funkie Junkie Focus is all about Paints and Pastes. These are media supplies you will definitely want to have in your art stash. You can do so many things with them! I decided to create a whimsical Notebook journal featuring both.

I used Distress Paint and Black Opaque Texture Paste on the outside of the notebook cover.

On the inside of the cover I added Sparkle Texture Paste over patterned paper (Backdrops Vol. 5).

The signatures are little premade notebooks I have that I covered to match the theme.

Here are the how to steps:

1) I created the base layer of painty background on the mat board I used for the cover.

2) On the inside, I applied the Sparkle Texture Paste through a stencil to add texture and shine. That paste is one of my favorites!

3) After applying the Black Opaque Texture Paste, I lightly sprinkled on embossing powder while the paste was wet. Once it was completely dry, I heat embossed the powder.

4) I used elastic to create the binding.
