Decorating Chipboard

[materialgirl197]

I have some "blank" (I mean undecorated - not sure what the right word is) chipboard swirls. I was wondering what's the best thing to use to decorate chipboard - paints or what. I have some colorbox inks but that's about it. If you do use paints which ones would you recommend?

You could use your inks, paint them, cover them with newsprint, or paper, emboss them, glitter them, the sky is your limit really!!

Over the last couple of weeks I've been working with some naked chipboard which was sent to me by Magistical Memories as I got through to round 2 of their DT call. So far i've painted them with acrylics, and crackle paints, inked them, glittered some, covered some with patterned papers, used krylon pens etc, other girls have used glimmer mists (i don't have any!), felted them, flocked them, simply outlined them with pens... But as Annette says, they are VERY versatile and you can do pretty much anything with them.

Take a look at the magistical memories gallery on the their forum, under challenges, DT call round 2. There are some fantastic creations from all the entrants - lots with instructions and supply lists! :)
