Painted Paper Color and Texture

Painted Paper with Glue

After a day of priming and painting newspapers

I get to the day of card making.

How to put the blocks of painted paper together?

Not as easy as I thought.

The picture of how I thought it would be in my head

does not match what the paper will do.

Have to let go of the picture in my head and see

what the painted papers can become on their own.
