These are my latest greeting cards. It seems like I'm into balloons lately. I scored some black Golden Heavy Body Acrylic paints at a rummage sale this past weekend, and this is the end result.
I got two of these tubes for $2 each. Can you see the original price? $9.37!
The paint is actually too thick for my use so I thinned it out with some of this Liquitex medium that I got at Ross awhile back.
The card in the upper right is one of two that I made as a test. I used this to start, drew on the balloon shapes and then painted the background with the black Golden paint.
I think I'll be making a bunch more (until I get bored). If you think it looks cool and want one, email me at JalnaA@aol.com with your mailing address and I'll send you one!
