Pisces: 02/20 - 03/20

New: Signs of the Zodiac - Signs of the Zodiac created with Pelikan Paint on various materials.

Greetings card, painted tile, tile with serviette technique

For the card you will need:
coloured card (blue), scissors, Pelikan PLAKA Paint including the shades gold and silver, a fine paint brush, foam rubber.

Here's what you do:
Cut the card to the size needed. We would like to show you 2 different ways to do this:

The creation of a motif:

1. With the fine brush, paint wavy lines in gold on the blue background of the card. You could also paint the dates for Pisces.
2. Cut the shape of a fish out of the foam rubber, cover it with PLAKA Paint, press it carefully on the card to leave an impression.

For the tile you will need:

• A white tile (Do-it-yourself Centre),
• Pelikan PLAKA Paint in blue, light-blue,
• silver lacquer and Clear Varnish,
• paint brushes in various sizes (2, 3, 10 and 12).

• For the tile with serviette technique you will also need a serviette with fish motif and a tooth pick.

1. Coat the tile with the blue paints in a wavy pattern.
2. With the silver lacquer paint a 0,5 cm wide frame around the tile. A wavy frame creates a more dynamic picture.
3. If you have already cut the fish shapes from the foam rubber to make a card, use these again to decorate the tile. (How about using silver paint?).
4. Let the tile dry well then coat with the Clear Varnish.
