Love Mixed Media Layout

Hola Beautiful Crafters, 

Hope you are all well! 

With Yellow being my favourite color, I am sharing with you all a mixed media layout inspired by Lindy's Gang's August mood-board challenge. 

I used pattern paper from Dress My Craft's Dream Door Collection and a lot of Prima Marketing's Re-Design flower molds. 

To begin with I mixed the Yodeling Yellow magical shaker with some light paste and added some texture through a floral net stencil. Next I colored the clay molds of flowers and leaves using Oom pah pah pink, yodeling yellow and time travel teal respectively from Lindy's Gang. 

I also colored my art stones with the same teal color before adhering them onto my layout. Here are some close-ups - 

I hope you liked this layout and are inspired to make your own simple layout like this one. 

Until next time

XOXO

JK

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

Seize The Day - Mixed Media Canvas for Beginners

Hello beautiful crafters,

Today on my table is a very easy to make canvas using the left overs from the stash. The techniques used in this project are very easy to follow and you will be able to make this beautiful piece of art in no time. So dig into your stash and get set go!

Before starting always prime your canvas with gesso – white or clear your choice. Next choose the stencil of your choice and create the design randomly here and there. I have used a doily stencil to create a design in the plus sign way. On the remaining area I added crackle texture paste to give it the grungy look I wanted.

Next is to figure out your focal point and the elements that go with it. I chose this steampunk winged heart chipboard from mudra. I heat embossed it using Yellow versa mark ink and some clear gloss embossing powder. I wanted to give this embellishment a 3-d effect so heat set it 3 times. I also heat embossed my clock dial in black first and then added the rust colors to make it look grungy.

Similarly, to fill in the blank spaces around the focal point I used some random mdf letters I had in my stash. I painted them with rust effect pastes from prima. You could use any mental charms or steampunk gears or even 3-d alpha stickers, whatever you have in your stash, to fill the space. Just prime your embellishments and then color at your wish. 

I used impasto paints to color my background and added some leftover jute cord to create more dimension. To distress the edges I used ink blending tool and distress ink pad in the color ground espresso.

Here are some detailed pics!

Let me know in the comments how did you like this beginners mixed media canvas. Don't forget to tag me in your creations inspired by this one.

Until next time
XOXO
