Creative Artiste ~ #122 Anything Mixed Media Goes/Optional Christmas

 Hello Creatives 

December already 🎅

How fast did we get here this year..!! 

with it I bring the last challenge of 2025 @ Creative Artiste 

#122 ~ Anything Mixed Media Goes/Optional Christmas  

My Design Team Project came about making use of leftover 

Christmas bits, card backgrounds and paint waste with a 

meeting of two projects to embrace the season 🎄

This washi taped, paint scraped background reminded me of a snowy 

scene on a cold Winters night, leftover from my handmade Christmas 

cards there's stamped and embossed script, art yarn edging with 

large snowflake buttons included into the mix.

This felt Robin I discovered @ Thimble wood created by the 

super talented Michelle you will find her lovely kits HERE

One of many I've been making for loved ones each given a 

different embellishment.. this one with a beaded belly and 

jingle bell holly berries 😊

Displayed on the last page of my 2025 journal 

it's a reminder of the year gone by and future ahead.. 

Pop over HERE and see what the Creative Artiste team have 

designed to inspire you and please share your own creations @

Creative Artiste August #107 ~ Anything Mixed Media Goes

 Hello Creatives 

First Friday of the month always brings a new Challenge 

@ Creative Artiste #107 ~ Anything Mixed Media Goes 

My August Journal page is created with lots of paper play, 

using the rather lovely Stamperia SunFlower Art collection. 

Fussy cuts and layering, paint pen and glossy accents 

all shine a light on that extra detail.

Air clay sunflowers painted with acrylics, flicks of 

dimension paste accentuate those golden wild riverside 

grasses with dots of glitter glue making those relentless 

no matter the weather wildflower poppy's shine through.

Edged with machine stitch topped with lace 

this is very much where I like to be ... 

My outdoor happy place painting or drawing

alongside my dog in Natures Magnificent Garden.. 

We hope you can join the Design Team HERE  

@ Creative Artiste and play along with challenge #107

our Theme is always  Anything Mixed Media Goes.. 

Happy creative August everyone 

Take care & stay Creative 

Hugs Tracey xx

Heart and Soul...

 Hello Creatives 

You would certainly smile if you saw the process that went into 

creating this background. Created over weeks adding collage scraps, 

washi, fabric and lace, stencil scrapes and a wee bit of stitchery.

Limited messy time takes me back to crafting in my kitchen in 

between meal prep, cooking and excessive washing of hands 😊

Life is what it is but I am thankful..

Stamped, embossed and water coloured focal heart..

Shedding light on my chosen words.. born and bred in 

England and very much where my heart and soul lies..

Creative Hugs

My final Design Team Project of the 2023 is a twofer as I 

share how two journal pages come together to create one.. 

This cosy Christmas scene decked with festive die cut swags 

frames the Wintery night sky seen through the window.

Turn the page/open the window...

Created from offcuts collaged with glitter paste and a watery wash of 

Prussian blue acrylic. The moonlight shines down from the glittering 

midnight Sky on a forest of tree's amongst a flurry of snow. 

The words Peace On Earth... almost look as if 

they were carved into the snowdrift.

We @ Creative Artiste look forward to seeing your
