One of the new “crazes” is the “hot mess”. It looked like fun so I thought I would give it a try.
You start with a board painted white. Then you start adding brush strokes of color.
You continue adding colors until the entire board is covered.
Materials
Wood
Paint
Vinyl
Settings
15″ KNK Maxx
red capped blade
Force 35
Speed 400
Then you add your stencil, this will be the design that shows through at the end.
I chose a rooster and a cow. Then you paint the entire board white again. Paint away from the design to help eliminate bleeding under the stencil and use light coats until you have the coverage you desire. Mine is pretty white, some people like to have the colors show through subtly.
I then used a brush dipped in gray paint and then wiped almost dry and made random brush strokes over the board. When everything is dry, peel off the vinyl.
And here is the end result. It was fun to try. Here is the file for the cow and the rooster in KNK, SVG, and MTC hot mess rooster and cow
Love it!
Thanks!
This looks like a fun project to do with my grandkids! Thanks for sharing.
I saw one post where a young girl did it with her name, it was very cute. I suggested to my daughter it might be a fun thing to do at my granddaughter’s 9th birthday party.
Love your happy colors. Great project!
Thanks!
