thinks like these gift bags
Today I am here with my an old post of
How to give texture and colour to simple white Canson Sheet...
Colour plays a very significant and pivotal role in our daily life
Someone says,
" Life is like a rainbow, you need both the sun and the rain ,
to make it colours appear "
Today I want to play with colours and have fun like the kids of school age...
Do you want to be a child once again ???
O come with me and lets have some fun ...
For me its so satisfying that my hands are in colours and
every time a new unknown result appear on the paper ...
You have lots and lots of options for those customized paper ... cards, wrapping gift papers,
book marks, envelops and so much more ...
A Canson oil paint sheet...
book marks, envelops and so much more ...
Now I am telling you what you will need for this fun project
Oil colours of your desired shades ...
Turpantine oil
Some tissue paper and gauze ...
Plastic sheet for lying on the working area ...
The choice of colour is yours but I used yellow, brown, ocher brown and green ...
With the help of gauze start spreading the colours on the sheet,
What texture you wants , its totally up to you, on this sheet I spread the colours in upside down direction...
Turpantine oil
Some tissue paper and gauze ...
Plastic sheet for lying on the working area ...
Now lay your sheet smoothly on your hard working surface like table top ...
Squeeze oil paints directly from the tube on the paper like shown above ...The choice of colour is yours but I used yellow, brown, ocher brown and green ...
Now spray turpentine oil on the sheet , just soak it completely in the oil ...
What texture you wants , its totally up to you, on this sheet I spread the colours in upside down direction...
here you can clearly see how the colours spread...
A little touch of brown and green with a cheerfull yellow makes it so cheery ... put aside for drying atleast for 4 hours ...
A marble effect paper with the same technique of spreading colours in upward and down word motion...
Ok another one with a different colours and with different direction of spreadin colours ...
For this I used yellow white, purple and shocking pink colours...
Here I merged the colours in a circular
motion...
Leae it to dry...
my different experimental papers... believe me if you love to play with colours
you will love it, every end result make your heart sings...
I would love and appreciate if you share what you have in your mind ....
Hope you enjoyed and tried to have some like this... If you like it please let me know

Wow Farah! That's a great idea! You should have been an art teacher at school! Do you have any problems with the paint breaking when you fold it? Just curious!

Thanks Liz for your sweet comments... No I never face any problem like this while folding, because the paper absorb the paint, it is not a layer like... neither it crack nor it appears on your hands while working after once dry...
