Amy Tangerine created script stickers with Kal Barteski. They are gorg. And someone posted a great idea on how to used them in mixed media. See below.
I grabbed a piece of birch wood and chose my words. CHERISH THIS.
Taped the edges. And chose my spray paint.
First gold....
Then blue...I had removed the tape because the gold got on some parts of the trim so I just sprayed it all.
Then teal...
And you can tell by this point I wasn't spraying properly to avoid seepage under the letters or the edges being covered.
And then I retaped and sprayed with black. The other colors were not showing the statement as bold as I'd like.
I was not happy with the results. Soni started over with just black. Taking my time and spraying evenly.
And I got this. Which I still wasn't happy due to the squared edges the spray paint left.
So finally I went back to the original and got out the sand paper.
To my surprise. The layers below showed through. And the final result made me happy.
It's not perfect or precise and clean as the sample photo (which is awesome) but it's my creation. And I CHERISH it.
