Perfect Paints Shimmering Acrylic Paints meets Fall!

Is it too early to start wishing for Fall? I know......everyone loves the summer!! This girl is all about the Fall. So I just couldn't resist getting a new Fall project completed. These are my interchangeable trucks. And Perfect Paints Shimmering Acrylics was exactly what I needed to give this insert the pop I was hoping for.

Supplies:

Misc Birch wood cut outs

Paint Brush

Acrylic paint in Green, Orange, Brown and White

Perfect Paints Shimmering Acrylics in Vintage Patina, Aged Copper and Red Wagon




This can be done on any wood surface but for this project I am using Baltic Birch that I have cut out on my laser. The first part of the insert I will paint the leaves with Shimmering Acrylic.

First, I used the Vintage Patina to cover all of the leaves.

Then I used the Aged Copper and Red Wagon to start coloring in the highlights of the leaves. I wanted it to have that Fall look. The added gold shimmer of the paints gives that extra pop!!

Once I am done with all the parts that I wanted to use the Perfect Paints Shimmering Acrylic on...I finished up by painting everything else with regular craft paint. I'm a doodler so everything must have the extra pop of white or black doodle lines. This is from my scrapbooking days and quickly became my go to.

And...the finished product. I used the Shimmering paint on the big leaves and the center sign. It has such a beautiful shimmer. I can't wait to make a few more with these paints! I sure hope you will give them a try as well!!


Until next time...happy crafting :)
