Altered Arts Magazine & Texture Paste Class

Altered Arts Magazine - Spring 2009

Hi all,
The latest Altered Arts Magazine has arrived in store. There are some interesting articles on incorporating beads into your artwork, improving your inkjet printing and my latest article entitled Creating with Texture Paste.

Texture Paste is one of our favourite mediums here at NZ Scrapbook. If you haven't tried texture paste, basically it is an opaque medium that holds its form once it dries. That means you can push it through stencils, stamp into it, paint with it. You can then paint over it, glaze it, emboss over it...in fact in the article I list 16 different ways of using this versatile medium, perhaps you can come up with more!

The red bird on this journal spread is made with an impasto technique on a diecut shape.

If you would like to try texture paste under the guidance of a class I am running a Creating with Texture Paste workshop this Thursday at 7pm. Cost for the class is $55 and includes materials, a full jar of Jo Sonja Texture paste and the latest issue of Altered Arts Magazine.
