Scrunched Paper Bag Background Technique



My friend, Francine taught me this scrunched paper bag background technique.

Directions:
Cut out a piece of a paper bag whatever size you want to make. Scrunch it up real tight. Now get it wet in the sink.



Open it up onto your work surface.



Using three colors of acrylic paints (two complimentary colors, plus one metallic color), drop paint in various areas of the wet paper bag.



Using a brayer, make quick, short strokes to spread the paint all over the paper bag.



Let dry and then cut to the size needed for your project.



These are great for your altered books, mini albums, art journals, ATC cards, et cetera.
