Creative Artiste #129 ~ Anything Mixed Media Goes Challenge

Hello Creatives 

First Friday of the month so it's time to share a project for 

Creative Artiste's Anything Mixed Media Goes Challenge.. 

As another heatwave is set to melt the UK i'm taking you 

all to the beach today.. not literally of course 😊

On a summer sky painted background I scraped sand coloured texture 

paste making feet impressions in the sand by pressing in stamps 

from the Inkylicious shoreline stamp set whilst the paste was wet. 

When dry I stamped and embossed the shoreline, adding paint 

dots, dabs and flicks to the sky to enhance the atmosphere.. 

Embellished with coordinating lace, sequin trim and machine stitch 

top to bottom, I pondered for a while unsure what word or quote to 

pair up with the scene... 

Having found a bag full of beach bracelets in a suitcase that 

my Children used to collect whilst on holiday the word 

Tranquill came very much to mind... 

**Happy Days**

Come dip your toes in and share your Mixed Media creativity with the 

team HERE @ Creative Artiste's #129 Anything Mixed Media Goes 

Take Care everyone

Creative Artiste #128 ~ Anything Mixed Media Goes

 Hello Creative Friends 

It's Anything Mixed Media Goes @ 

Creative Artiste July's Challenge #128 

A just for fun piece and a trip down memory lane.. 

July was an exciting month as a child, the end 

of the school year, six weeks of holiday, outdoor play 

and family holidays... Taking the long route down to 

Devon/Cornwall admiring the stunning scenery.. 

My page consists of paint splodges and scrapes, 

and painted scene with stencilled sun and rays. 

The car is a TH wacky transport die, cut and layered 

multiple times, very similar to my dear great uncles🤣

Art yarn and lace add dimension with hand embroidered flowers 

resembling the bank of Heathers seen along the way.. 

*Happy Days* 

Hope to see your mix up of media creations @

Anything Mixed Media Goes...

Stay safe & Creative

Creative Artiste #96 ~ Anything Mixed Media Goes

Hello everyone 

a new month means the start of a new challenge @ 

Creative Artiste where *Anything Mixed Media Goes* 

This August I share a journal page using part of an illustration 

collaged from a colouring book altered to create a wider scene.

Using pencil, pen and paint, texture paste, die cut wild flowers,

eyelet portholes and art stone pebbles and doodles line the towpath.

This was a scene relished in real time last month given a 

few days respite from care duties... the first in many years.. 

Let me take you on a brief journey and share life stuff that 

inspired Augusts journal page with a handful of pictures..

Taking to the water by canal boat 2 miles per hour..

hidden from wifi connections, cuddled by nature..

Visitors stopping by for breakfast.. lunch and tea 😁

Freya taking in the scenery..

a herd of horses run free on the horizon..

always only a short journey away from home...

It felt like a million miles away.. 

this really is life slowed down ...

I hope you can take a moment to share what inspires you this month 

and come and share your mixed media creations with us HERE

@ Creative Artiste's #96 ~ Anything Mixed Media Goes.. 

Wishing you all a safe, relaxing month ahead 

Creative Hugs 

Tracey xx
