Oh! yes! I knew that the UKATC Theme for November was 'On theFarm' and when I saw this sheet of Farmyard Sticker in Works, I knew that my ATCs would be completed.I had this vision of stickers with gesso surrounding them, as though the sticker was coming out of the white background, know what I mean?!!!??
I cut out the cards and spread them with gesso and let it dry.
No, that wasn't how I imagined it. The gesso was AWFUL!!!
I mixed some water colour paint with the gesso and then layered over the white gesso.
Better.
I used a rubber brush and applied the coloured gesso round the stickers, stroking it among the stickers so that there was shading in the colour.
Yes!
Much better than I imagined!
I love them!
How many have I made?
Lots and lots, that's how many!!
