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

Simply Lovely Again..!!

Hello Creative Friends 

Another Summertime show of recent Alison Bomber stamps by 

PaperArtsy.. The Hydrangea is one of my favourites and in 

real time they lap up the sun even during a heatwave.. 

Stamped and embossed on a watercolour tag scrap I coloured with 

watercolour and pencil stamping text to fill the bare background. 

With a craft knife I carefully cut around random leaves to lift 

and add dimension popping dots of glitter glue in each centre 

as that's where the Hydrangea flower magic really happens 

Co-ordinating buttons and lace embellish with a trio of machine 

stitch colour edges it all.. simply lovely again 😊

Stay safe & creative everyone 

Hugs Tracey xx

 Hello Creatives 

Creative Artiste Challenge is BACK!!! 

February has arrived refreshed after the break and 

HERE to share my Design Team Mixed Media Creation. 

Sharing my love for mixed media, I adore adding lace into my 

projects, I think many of you know 😍 This journal page I've 

scraped paint and paste through a stencil, sprayed distress 

oxides teamed with dabs of gold paint. 

My postcard topper is decorated with torn papers, layered with 

rice paper remnants and washi. Repeating that stencil, paint 

and paste, flat areas I stamped and machine stitched, edging 

with lace, hand sewn blanket stitch and a trio of kisses.

Overlaid with a golden lace flourish, two paper cut hearts 

covered with glossy accents rest safe and cosy together 💖 

Myself and the Design Team hope you will share your love 

of mixed media and join our February Challenge.. 

There's so much more inspiration to see HERE @

Happy Crafty February

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 ~ 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 March ~ #113 Anything Mixed Media Goes

 Hello Creative Friends 

After a dark dank start to the year we've started to see 

the beauty of Springtime and bursts of sunshine inspiring my 

Creative Artiste #113 DT Mixed Media March project... 

Recycled paper pieces, offcuts and embossed scraps have been 

pasted into an old diary where a Spring scene has been sketched 

with paint, pencil and pens...

With a watercolour wash and splatter skyline the pages have been edged 

with wonky stitchery completed with a found quote to fit the scene...

Sighhh... take me there 😊

We hope you will share your mixed media creations with us HERE 

the team look forward to seeing what you create...
