Creative Artiste ~ #125 Anything Mixed Media Goes April Challenge

Hello Creatives 

Its challenge #125 @ Creative Artiste our 
theme is always Anything Mixed Media Goes.

Here's what I got up to, mixing up media in my journal.
 
Scraping gesso then modeling paste through a TH stencil I've 
glazed with PaperArtsy Mattints giving a sheer subtle effect. 

Collaging torn papers and old book pages on a 6x4 topper, 
graphite is rubbed through a tree stencil and then with paste. 
Glazing again with mattints I edged with machine stitch, 
washi tape and tea stained paper doilies.. 


The Hare is a stamp by Hobby Art and has always been one 
of my favourite stamp images so much so that I actually 
have two sets of the March Hare.. 😊

Very sad to see this wonderful company close, without 
the encouragement from Jenny Mayes (Owner) all those 
years ago I never would have taken those brave steps 
to even start a blog, Jenny made me believe 
in myself, what a beautiful soul she is 💖

The stamped hare is coloured with alcohol markers, pencil 
and paint given thread whiskers and bedecked with purple 
and green lace, he's popping up from the woodlands edge 
making his presence known .. so cute.


If you like to mix up your media come join us HERE 

Wishing those that celebrate 
*Easter Blessings* 

Take care everyone

Spring is in the air

 Hello Creative Friends 

Slow stitch to start a new season, using fabric scraps, 
some vintage, lace embellishments with an applique flower 
patch that I've given beads for stamen. At present it stands 
as a journal cover a little burst of spring time inspiration.


Also a little spring time tag with a layered background of 
collage, stencil and paste, tickled with PaperArtsy Paint. 

I'm not sure what this flowers name is but it's from the 
Stamps by me *Make Memories* stamp and die set.
Die cut and layered multiple times I think coloured in pink 
it does resemble Cherry Blossom, perfect for the season..


Wishing you all good health and sunshine. 

Creative Hugs

Anything Mixed Media Goes ~ Creative Artiste #124 Challenge

 Hello Creatives 

It's monthly challenge time @ Creative Artiste 

This wasn't what I had planned to share today but 
this stamp set by Tracy Evans *Feed your Soul* 
I couldn't resist purchasing as the Silver Birch 
reminds me very much of the Tree 
outside my Moms window.. 

Created with lots of stencil work, paint and paste, 
the stamped image is painted with the Bird box stamped, 
cut and layered multiple times on the focal flip page.


Flipped over there's more paint scrapes, pencil and 
stencil first revealing a single lace lawn daisy and two 
stamped birds flying high, maybe gathering materials 
to start building their nest..


after months of rain flora and fauna thrive..


Spring is definitely beginning to show it's face..


Now time to share your creativity @ 

Come share your Mixed Media creations HERE

Happy Crafting 
Take care & stay safe
