Creative Artiste Challenge ~ #112 Anything Mixed Media Goes

Happy February Creative's and Welcome 
to Creative Artiste first Mixed Media Challenge of 2025

Apologies I am indeed late with my new year best wishes 
but care duties are keeping me exceptionally busy... 

I'm so glad I managed to put together a DT project for 

Here's what I created and those *did's to do's ... 

On an old Gel plate scrap I added strips of torn washi tape 
and pushed modeling paste through a stencil, highlighting 
with gilding wax when the paste was completely dry.


Stamped onto a found fragment of tea stained linen 
I decorated with lace, buttons, machine stitch and 
three hand stitched woolen yarn kisses... 


Topped with a dry felted heart crafted using Tracy Evans 
snippet stencil which acted as both a guide and template 
I embellishing the completed heart with golden beads. 

Edging the journal page with very messy machine stitch in a 
high contrasting colour this concluded my Mixed Media Make.


I loved creating this project full of love in so many ways... 

I hope you find time to create some mixed media moments 
and please do come and share with the Design Team 

Pop on over HERE to see more inspiration from the Team 
along with two Guest Designers and to welcome our 
newest Design Team Member Emma 😊 

Take care everyone 
stay safe and creative

Creative Artiste ~ #110 November Anything Mixed Media Goes

Hello lovely creative friends.. 

Time for Novembers Creative Artiste post #110.. 
our challenge theme is *Anything Mixed Media Goes*

My 2024 art journal is getting quite full so here's a page from it 
whilst I work out a better way of keeping this years pages together.
 
Stencilled and acrylic painted background a big full moon 
shines through torn paper strips dragged along an ink pad. 
They remind me so much of silver birch tree's as the 
light of the moon catches the white space.. 

 
The funky fox I stamped onto fabric and followed the lines 
of the image creating an embroidered patch colouring in with 
lots of fussy stitching using just a needle and threads.. 

We hope you will share your mixed media makes 
with the Design Team HERE and join our challenge

Stay safe & keep creative 
Hugs Tracey xx

It's a.. Beautiful day...

 Hello everyone,  

I was blessed to have some free time this week 
so therapeutic to have a creative play day.. 

This journal background is made up of torn scraps, napkins 
and a spotty glassine bag painted, dotted and doodled 
all edged with machine stitch. 

The centre piece I'd intended to be a book mark but the painted blues 
of the stamped blue tit and coffee cup blended so well with the page.
 

All reminding me of the song Beautiful day by U2 
about finding joy in the small things in life. 

The focal bird brought to life the line 
*And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out*

Definitely a beautiful day.. Bird Song a cuppa and crafting.. 

Stay safe and creative Hugs Tracey xx

 Hello Creatives 

I'm blessed to have been invited to be Guest Designer 
@ Try it on Tuesday, their theme this fortnight is 

 
Today I share a Christmas Card a tradition to correspond with family 
and friends to send love and best wishes for the festive season. 

This one displays a Poinsettia sometimes known as the 
*Flower of the Holy Night* for it's star shaped flowers. 


Stamped coloured and fussy cut, displayed on an embossed acrylic 
painted background, I added a jumble of threads, gold lace and 
glittery stickles glue for extra detail and dimension.. 

Handmade Christmas cards are extra special and a wonderful way 
of staying connected with those dear to us both near and far.. .
