Iron Orchid Designs Little Lark IOD Paint Inlay 8x12 Pad ™ 8 sheets Limited Edition

LITTLE LARK IOD Paint Inlay | 8 Pages | 8" x 12" | 3 Color

IOD’s first small-format paint inlay, Little Lark is crafted for detail-driven, smaller-scale projects. Artwork is drawn from the 19th-century book The Bird by Jules Michelet, featuring birds, nests, florals, and pastoral vignettes in a charming toile-inspired layout full of details you simply have to see up close.

Rendered in a three-color palette of sepia black, indigo, and soft green — reminiscent of vintage china — it’s perfect for creating faux china-style finishes. Includes frames, wreaths, and borders for building compositions. Vignette scenes can be softened with a wet brush for a dreamy watercolor effect. The beloved cover artwork from this book also appears in the Athæneum Foil Transfer.

This is actual paint on paper that you use with wet paint or other mediums to melt the design onto your project. Watch the video below to see how to apply.

FAQ's from the manufacturer:

What are IOD Paint Inlays?
IOD Paint Inlays are ground-breaking, first-in-class, premium art products that will revolutionize the DIY industry and empower creative exploration across all skill levels. In short, they are AH-MAZING, if we do say so ourselves. (Three years in the making so we love them like our kids!)
IOD Paint Inlays are the artisanal answer to decor transfers. They’re not a decal; they’re not a synthetic film; they’re not decoupage.
When you apply an IOD Paint Inlay, paint is physically embedded into the surface of your project. After drying, the carrier paper is removed, leaving an authentic painted design and a buttery, almost leather-like surface on your piece.

How do IOD Paint Inlays work?
IOD Paint Inlays are made from a proprietary artist-quality paint which we formulated specifically for decorative use. Organic in nature, the Paint Inlays transfer the painted design yielding a slightly varied and uniquely beautiful aesthetic each time they’re used. The results are visually interesting, texturally complex, and often inherently distressed. The paint formula is ‘active’ until sealed. That means that you can manipulate it and apply special techniques or a custom touch before you seal your piece.

Can IOD Paint Inlays be reused?
And, as if once isn’t enough, you can usually get a beautifully faded second impression, with the residual pigment on your ‘leftover’ Paint Inlay sheets. Depending on the techniques and colors you are using with your Paint Inlay, sometimes you can even get a third impression!

IMPORTANT NOTE: For best results with a basic application, use a chalk-type paint that does not contain polymers.
