If you’ve joined the AJA Facebook group <\/a>you may have seen a question Bonnie posted a few weeks ago, asking what techniques or ideas might be of interest, ones that I could feature as part of a\u00a0page spread.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0one from Week 8 happened as a result of someone in the group mentioning that she was interested to know more about how spiff up her lettering.\u00a0 I played a bit and came up with what you saw two weeks ago.<\/p>\n

Today’s page is covered with Ranger’s Texture Paste<\/a>, but not straight from the jar.\u00a0\u00a0Another question posed in the group was about adding color to Texture Paste, so I brought out Distress Reinkers<\/a>, some sprays, and a few other things that I was fairly certain would tint it.\u00a0 The methodology was different for most of them and I’ve included photos and a brief explanation about what I did with the options, right at the end of today’s post.\u00a0 Onward the page for week 10…<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-7\"<\/a><\/p>\n

To tint the Texture Paste for my finished page, I used two colors of Lumiere Paint<\/a>; Burgundy<\/a> and Pearlescent White<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-8\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I decided that some glitter would be a nice addition (when isn’t it?) and pulled out Antique Silver from the Elizabeth’s Crafts Silk Microfine line<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-6\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This is our Flower Patch Stencil <\/a>(designed by Margaret Applin) and though it looks a mess, it’s ready to use.\u00a0 As you’ll see in the test photos at the end of the post, one way to add color to Texture Paste<\/a> is to use a stencil that has sprays accumulated on it.\u00a0 If they’ll rewet, they’ll tint the Paste.\u00a0 Since I knew I wanted to color the Paste separately, I didn’t want to use a stencil that had dried spray and I believed this one did not; that everything you see here was permanent.\u00a0 Note the use of the word believed.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-9\"<\/a><\/p>\n

With the stencil laid over the page, I applied the tinted Texture Paste through the openings, deliberately not covering the page from edge to edge.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-10\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If you look closely at the group of petals in the upper left corner you’ll see evidence that my belief that this stencil was only messy with stuff that was permanent was… incorrect.\u00a0 The discoloration isn’t significant and not enough for me to stress about.\u00a0 Though I will admit to being a tiny bit miffed.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-11\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I added a tiny bit of glitter, just a pinch sprinkled here and there, while the Texture Paste was still wet.\u00a0 Glitter has a way of healing wounds and being miffed…<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-12\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The background of the page looked a little boring, so I mixed Pearlescent White Lumiere with some water and applied it over the entire background, avoiding the flowers as much as possible.\u00a0 It was a little painstaking done with a small round brush, but worth it.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-13\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I was a little stumped about what else to do with the page.\u00a0 I didn’t want anything I added to compete with the flowers (and glitter) so decided some Zentangle inspired circles in the centers would be\u00a0good.\u00a0 Because I wanted them to be very fine, I used a black PITT Pen <\/a>with the\u00a0XS (Extra Super Fine) tip.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-14\"<\/a><\/p>\n

That’s better!\u00a0 I like the centers, like the pearly white color on the background, and in general was happy with the page.\u00a0 Though I had no idea what to do next.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-15\"<\/a><\/p>\n

When all else fails, go for more glitter.\u00a0 I used a Gelly Roll<\/a> Stardust Pen – the one named “Clear” that’s sold as a 2-pack<\/a>\u00a0– and use it to color in some of the circles.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-17\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then the question became if I was done.\u00a0 Or not.\u00a0 I added some curlicues made from Pitt Pen dots around the perimeter of the page…<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-18\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And some dots around the circles in the center of the flowers and called it done.<\/p>\n

If you’re interested in some additional techniques to tint Texture Paste, read on!<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Distress Ink Reinkers work perfectly.\u00a0 The color is so concentrated that it only takes a little to tint the Texture Paste, causing no change in the viscosity.\u00a0 Add a tiny bit at a time till you get the color you’re looking for, otherwise the color gets really deep, really quickly.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

You can also color the Paste once it’s dry on your surface.\u00a0 The pink was done with Distress Ink<\/a>, Picked Raspberry<\/a>, applied with an Mini Ink Bending Tool<\/a>.\u00a0 The turquoise was some Liquitex Basics Paint <\/a>(Bright Aqua Green<\/a>) added with a Mini Ink Blending Tool, too.<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Texture Paste applied through a stencil that has a lot of inks dried on the surface yields this…<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-3-a\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Tinted Texture Paste in a completely unpredictable pattern!\u00a0 That’s our Bloom Stencil<\/a><\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-4\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If you spray non-permanent ink (like Dylusions or Distress Spray Stains, or Color Wash Sprays) on paper and let it dry, then apply Texture Paste…<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-5\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Through the openings of a stencil (Joggles Secret Garden<\/a>), remove the stencil and let the Paste dry, you’ll see the color on the surface will tint the Paste<\/p>\n

\"2016-aja-week10-4-a\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In the pattern of how the color was applied to the surface.\u00a0 The colors are both Distress Spray Stains<\/a>.\u00a0 Twisted Citron<\/a> and Peacock Feathers<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Dear Faye, I hope this page provides some interesting options for coloring Texture Paste!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
