To The Moon And Back | Mixed Media Canvas

Hey hey crafty friends, 

Welcome to the blog again! I hope you are all doing well. 

In this post I am sharing a galaxy theme mixed media panel. I call this 'To The Moon & Back'!

I used a mdf panel as my base onto which I adhered a stars and moon tissue from Finnabair. Next I added the galaxy themed colors. For my composition, I used all clay embellishments made with molds from Finnabair. 

Here are some close-ups - 

Here is the video tutorial for this panel - 

Hope you enjoyed the tutorial and are inspired by this galaxy themed panel to make one for yourself. 

Until Next Time

XOXO

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

My worries go away like the setting sun when I am with them. The sunset at beach is something which reminds me of being with them always.

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

Live Your Dreams - Mixed Media Layout

Hello beautiful crafters,

Today, I have designed a mixed media layout for you all based on Mixed Media Academy Challenge's June’s mood board – Pastel Summer challenge. I was so glad to be invited by Priya Mishra and the MMA team to guest design this month for their challenge blog. 

Lets dive into the tutorial - 

Step 1 – distress the edges of 12x12 pattern paper & ink using distress oxide ink. Add a coat of clear gesso on top.

Step 2 – Using crackle texture paste and stencil make a design here and there on the paper.

Step 3 – Smoosh some distress oxide inks in the shades of yellow and pink, on the craft mat. Spray some water on it and add the color using paint brush on the textured area.

Step 4 – Once dried, add some washi tape torn randomly.

Step 5 – Using a dark color distress oxide ink and another stencil make an impression over the washi tape. You may choose to stamp as well in this step.

Step 6 – Lastly, embellish using paper flowers, some fussy cut out flowers, some die cut out foliage along with bows made with satin twine.

Here are some close-ups –

I hope you liked this layout as much as I enjoyed making it. Don’t forget to participate in the June monthly challenge at MMA & stand a chance to win some exciting craft goodies.

Until Next Time

XOXO
