Discover the wonders of the Jo Sonja’s Texture Paste. It may be used to create texture before or during painting. Use alone or tint with Jo Sonja’s Artists’ Colours for various techniques and effects. We’ve included an interesting project below for you to do at home with the Texture Paste. There are other techniques as well for you to experiment with, not just on wood surface but on papers/cardstocks to create that special look for your scrapbooking project.

Texture Paste-Stenciled Frame Basic stenciling steps:
1. Pre-colour Texture Paste or use alone.
2. The thickness of the stencil will determine the thickness of the design.
3. Position stencil on prepared surface securing with either repositional spray adhesive or low tack masking tape.
4. Use a palette knife or ruler to apply a generous amount of Texture Paste over the stencil. Surface may be smoothed over or left rough for a more textured appearance.
5. Lift stencil off carefully in one movement.
6. If desired, add additional lines or texture with a toothpick or skewer.
7. Whilst Texture Paste is still wet, clean up any bleed with a damp brush or cotton bud.
8. When fully dry, paint, antique or gold leaf as desired.
