Dylusions Paint...yum!

Hello again...I was asked by the lovely Michelle Thomas of Scrapbook Divas to have a play with Dylusions paint, lucky me! These paints were created especially for Dyan Reaveley & since she is the queen of art journaling, this is where I started. This paint is thinner than usual paint, making it great for layering, so I stuck down some book paper before painting with 'squeezed orange' using a foam brush. It spread very easily & quickly without using a huge amount of paint.

Then with various stencils & different colours, I simply layered them. The paint dried super quick, which is brilliant, no need for a heat gun! It also didn't buckle the paper, or bleed into the next page (even down the spine)...again, brilliant for art journaling.

For my next journal page, I applied various colours of the paint with a brayer...again, drying very quickly. After using texture paste with my Prima 'Sharon' stencil, I used 'bubblegum pink' on the butterflies & partially wiped if off to still show the stencilling.

Next I thought I would try it on a couple of layouts.

I used a brayer & stamps to add colour on this layout above. Also using the paint to colour the alphas.

I love the vibrancy of these paints, especially on the black background. For this layout I applied the paint with a palette knife, which did take some drying time as I applied it quite thick. Even though I applied it thicker, it still didn't buckle or warp the paper.

I loved this paint & will certainly be adding more to my collection :) Pop over to the Scrapbook Divas shop to check them out.
Thanks for stopping by...as always, a huge thank you for your lovely comments. I do appreciate the time you take to leave me one x
Happy scrapping!
