Paints
are one of our favorite art supplies, and these new Scrapbook Colors
Kits from Making Memories are just impossible to resist! Each set
contains six 2 oz. bottles of acrylic paint, 3 foam brushes (2 brushes
are 1” wide, and the other is 1-1/2” wide), and a plastic
palette for mixing the paints.
The
paints are archival safe, so you can use them for all your scrapbook
projects. They can be used to alter the color of metal embellishments,
and work wonderfully with the Foam Alphabet Stamps from Making Memories,
too.
Even
the names of the paint colors relate to the name of the kits! When
you paint with the “In Bloom” Scrapbook Colors Kit, it’s
not just blue...you’re painting with “cornflower”.
In the “Sherbet” kit, pink becomes “Strawberries &
Cream”!!! So pick your favorites, and have fun painting!
