Color Pour


Saturday, September 1, 2018

Have you seen the new Color Pour line by American Crafts available at JoAnn?! I got my hands on some of the products and went to town creating a one-of-a-kind canvas to add to a wall in my happy scrappy place!
I couldn't pick just one or two colors, I had to go with eight :)
I poured my selected paints into eight little plastic cups and then squirted a few drops of Cell Magic into each cup.
There are popsicle sticks included in one of the Color Pour kits which I used to stir around the Cell Magic in each cup.
Then I poured the paints into two larger cups.
I put the four warmer colors in one cup and the four cooler colors in the other.

Then I poured the warm colored paints on the left side of a long canvas and...
...poured the cool colors on the right side.
Next I wiggled the canvas around and let the paint droop over the sides. I love the marble effect!
Oooooh!
Ahhhh!
It does get a bit messy so be sure to put down a drop cloth - this plastic one was also included in a kit.
When there is an option to add gold, always add gold!
I love the bits of sparkle & shine the gold flakes add!
Then I let the canvas sit out to dry for the rest of the day and overnight. When I woke up this morning it was ready to go!
Just a note that the darker pink turned red when it dried so I would have picked a different pink if I could do this over again. And there definitely will be a next time!
Ready to hang!
I put my Color Pour canvas in a corner of my happy scrappy place to stare at and admire all the colors.
