Can you share what was on your three little papers to help get me started? I’m new to art journaling so any tips I can get is a big blessing! Btw, I love your channel! You make everything seem do-able for us beginners! Thanks so much!

    This turned out great! It’s amazing how colors and patterns can turn out in smaller sizes! A hack that I came across but don’t remember where…they recommended using cornstarch or talcum powder to thicken runny paint. Immediately thought of you with your thin peachy pink. Haven’t tried it yet. My peachy pink seems to be ok. Thanks Erin❤️

    That is a fun way to use some supplies or colors that I may not normally reach for -- I guess you could also use 2 dice and add the numbers to get additional techniques or colors. Really like your results!

    • @eb_mixedmedia
      @eb_mixedmedia  3 місяці тому

      Using additional dice might a good idea. That way you could have more colors, for example. I was also thinking you could do two colors for each number, like "peach AND/OR red". That would give you some more options and you could do weird combinations and see waht happens.
