Creative Artiste ~ Anything Mixed Media Goes #121

 Hello Creatives 

It's the first Friday of a new month so time for a new challenge 

@ Creative Artiste.. our challenge #121 is almost always... 

Anything Mixed Media Goes  

I discovered this magnificent sculpture last year whilst dog walking 

in a quiet corner of Worcester which led me to discover more wonders 

designed by artist Victoria Harrison and her living mosaics. 

As November is a month of remembrance and reflection 

I was inspired to create my journal page.

 

A paint scraped background embellished with desk whatnots and wool, 

script is stamped and embossed to add extra background interest. 

The poppy is fashioned from scrap paper each petal 

given a mosaic design using paint, pens and scrap fabrics.

The poppy centre is a large domed button surrounded by glittery bits. 

Finishing with a smudge of glitter glue and edged with paper clips 

keeping everything uniform and together.. 

The single word BRAVE speaks for itself..

Please do share your own mixed media creations with the team

@ Creative Artiste #121 Anything Mixed Media Goes 

Wishing you all a happy, creative 

and reflective month ahead

Creative Artiste ~ Anything Goes Mixed Media Challenge #120

 Hello Creatives 

Welcome to Creative Artiste's October challenge #120 

our theme is always *Anything Mixed Media Goes* 

Autumn arrived and my October project shows how the beauty 

of the season inspires me. On a paint scraped background I 

stamped script, heat embossed with gold embossing powder, 

hand stitching around the edge using a variety of art yarns.

Gathered Sycamore twigs covered in Lichen are attached to the 

background with fabric leaves painted and enhanced with pencil, 

gilded and embellished with a mix of glass beads. 

Autumn truly is an inspiration..

What inspires you? 

The team at Creative Artiste look forward to seeing  

please come share your Mixed Media Creations @

Creative Artiste ~ #119 September Mixed Media Challenge

Hello Creatives 

Time for Mixed media challenge #119 @ Creative Artiste 

September is world Alzheimer's month 

as a carer this is so close to my heart, caring 

for other peoples family to now my own 😢 

This month I share a project created from fabric, fragments and 

embellishments favourite outfit combinations of my dear Mother..

 

Laid out on a tea stained base I arranged the torn fabrics, 

attaching with both hand and machine stitch I gathered, 

frayed and embroidered extra detail..

The forget me not is cut from denim enriched with bright fabric paint.

The central eyelet is sewn with thread and attached to the panel. 

Hard to choose a fitting sentiment .. this will do for now...

Please be mindful and educated on this dreadful disease 

as it will touch the lives of many if not our own...
