Faux Chipboard....
This is the latest art quest challenge for the Next Generation group. My faux chipboard pieces are very small - they are the 4 small green colored leaves. I used a punch on the white fun foam to create them. To create the background on the page I used acrylic paint from my Ranger Dabbers....I'm very disappointed in them, and most times just dip a brush in the bottle to apply the paint.
I didn't follow Trish's instructions exactly because I painted the background and the foam leaves before gluing the foam pieces to the page. I stamped on the background pages and added the leaves that are stamped on mulberry paper. There were times when I didn't like what I was seeing, but now that it's done ... I do like it.

I hope everyone clicks on the photo to enlarge it. Your faux chipboard leaves look metallic, maybe laquer would be a better term. Absolutely gorgeous!
