Follow Your Dreams | Mixed Media Layout

Hola crafty peeps,

Hope you are all well! 

Today I am sharing a very near to my heart mixed media layout. I never knew this layout would turn out so beautiful 'coz sometimes our ideas are good but don't turn out well. This layout turned out much more amazing than I had imagined it. 

I used a big window frame and broke its shutters to adhere as per my design. I also gave it a distressed effect with different shades of green. I used a lot of fussy cut elements from Mintay's Secret Place paper pack along with my handmade foamiran flowers. I topped the whole composition with a simple chipboard sentiment "Hello" which meant me saying hello to my beautiful dreams. 

Let's take a closer look - 

You can watch the video tutorial for this here - 

Hope you liked this mixed media layout full of dreams and beauty and it inspires you to make one of your own. 

Until next time

XOXO

Dream Believe Shine | Mixed Media Tag

Hello Amazing Crafters,

Hope you are all well and safe at your homes!

Today I bring to you a challenge theme inspired mixed media tag. The theme was based on a color palette and a mandatory element of star.  I chose blue and purple color from the palette to make my tag. 

I used a star design stencil to add texture in the background. I again used tons of clay embellishments made with Finnabair's molds. I covered it all with black gesso and then used only waxes to add colors to my tag. 

Here are some close-ups -

Until Next Time

Mixed Media Monochrome Canvas

Hello My Beautiful Crafters,

Hope you all are well! 
I am sharing with you all a very unique triangular mixed media canvas in monochrome colors. 
I have tried to keep the rawness of the embellishments intact in terms of the monochrome tone i wanted to achieve. 

I have used a lot of metal embellishments along with tree barks and tons of art stones. I used metallic paints to give this monochromatic shade to my canvas. And everything came together with the vintage photo I added to complete the layout. 

Here's a closer look - 

Here's the video tutorial in case you want to see the complete process - 

I hope you liked the project as much as I enjoyed making it. 

Until Next Time 

XOXO

Mixed Media Journal Cover

Hola beautiful crafters,

I am back with another mixed media project for you all. I have recently created a mixed media journal cover using cute miniatures related to beauty and fashion. 

I started with covering my journal with some texture paste using a stencil here and there on the front only. Next i adhered all my metal embellishments and miniatures using heavy body gel and let them dry over night. I next covered my front with heavy gesso black. 

I then began adding colors, starting with impasto paint in the shade crimson. I only used dry brushing technique while applying all my colors. I then went in with Azure impasto paint. Next i added some highlights with metallic paint in the color fuchsia pink. Once all the paints dried i added more highlights using art alchemy waxes in the colors vintage gold and Indian pink. Lastly, I topped the flower centers with art pebbles painted with fuchsia pink metallic paint. 

On the back of the journal I adhered tissue paper from Finnabair using some gel medium. 

Do leave a comment in the section below if you liked this project and do share your projects inspired by this one. 

PS - this is my entry to the art recipe august challenge by Finnabair. 

Until next time

XOXO
