How to Use an Altered Playing Card to Create an Artist Trading Card

Have you ever wondered why anyone would use an altered playing card for their next mixed media art card, atc or miniature art project? 🎴 don't forget to get your 10 bonus tips below 🎴

The first theme was “things I loved doing this year” and for the altered playing card I was working on, that was “texture”. I’ve already explored texture in all forms and pushed them pretty far so

I created a set of three art cards, this one is the first, the other two will be posted over the next few days.

When I was thinking how I would work with my altered playing card as the first video lesson, I started with the following textures:
-gel skin
-crackle paint
-buttons

The thing to note is when you work with an altered playing card, it just needs a bit of extra prep work with gesso, since the cards are coated. A tip: gesso a bunch of cards at once to save time.

Side Note:

My videos are geared towards beginners and intermediates. I talk throughout the process to make it easy for you to understand. I avoid speeding up the videos and mistakes are not edited out so you can see how to fix it if it happens to you. In doing this, the videos are a little bit longer.
