Hello Creative Friends
Welcome to Creative Artiste's March Challenge #80
our theme is always *Anything Mixed Media Goes*
This month my Design Team project uses fabric remnants, with a focal
Daffodil cut from card, stitched and painted. A wool wrapped curtain
ring represents the Corona or more commonly known trumpet. With hand
woven button as the stamen it makes a bright statement of Spring.
The fabric scrap background is embellished with beads, stray threads,
sequins, lace and buttons, all drawn together with needle and thread
in both machine stitch and hand embroidery...
I loved watching it's design immerge and grow,
it's incredibly tactile and so cheerful...
Turned into a mini wall quilt a gift for Mother's Day
I hope my Mom will find it uplifting all year round.
What ever your creative choice of medium, be it a mix of fabric remnants
embellished like my own. Paper, paint and stencils on a Journal background
ATC's, mixed media cards, Tags or inventive altered projects we'd love
you to share your mixed media creations with the Creative Artiste Team.
Pop on over HERE to see what the DT have created to inspire you.
I hope you will join our Creative Artiste March #80 Challenge
and please remember it's always *Anything Mixed Media Goes*
Creative Hugs and best wishes

Back to say, thanks so much for joining us at Country View Challenges too, it's so lovely to see you there 😀. I'm sure your mum will love this too - it's stunningly beautiful! Happy weekend! Hugs Jo x
ReplyDeleteOh my! Tracey, I am so sorry I don't know why I haven't been to see you for so long I just seem to have been so occupied with the family stuff that I've only just managed to keep up with my own stuff and then I happened to pop on to the Creative Artiste and the guilt just flowed over me that I haven't been to see you or joined in the challenges, in fact I haven't joined in any challenges since last year. Who knows maybe I'll give it a go again. Stay safe and happy creating, Angela xXx
