march Inspiration for Mixed Media Academy Challenge blog

Hi everyone! It's a new month and a new chance to join our challenges on the mixed media academy challenge blog. theme this month is again 'anything goes' mixed media except cards/tags/atcs. All details here.
As my inspiration for the challenge i created this art journal page. For this i worked in an old book. Old books are great for art journaling, they are cheap and easy to get and i just love this vintage look of the old pages and skripts. 

I used white gesso to prepare the pages, fussy cutted some stamped elements and sticked them with gel medium. For the colors i used Lindy's Stampgang Sprays. For extra texture and insterest i added some strings. 

this dragon-fly is stamped too. I glued it only in the middle to make it look a little dimensional.
Thanks for watching, i hope you like my page and i could inspire you to create something for our challenge.

steampunk style with texture

Bild
hi dears, i'm back with a new creation. This time i wanted to make a steampunk canvas, but i wanted to make something with lots of texture again,as well. So, why not combine both? So i started with applying a thick layer of crackle paste by  finnabair   and let it dry natural for a fiew hours. Then i built the composition with chipboard pieces, metal embellishments, dried roots and this cute face- this is made from paper clay by using a silicon mould. I played with different colors, first lindys magicals for the backround (steampunk sepia and shabby turbine teal) then i added finnabairs artalchemy paint 'mermaid teal' and 'emerald green' deluted with water and off course 'steampunk copper' should not be missing for this project.  to give it more texture i applied rustpaste (again finnabair) and some colored mica flakes and xs micropheres in old gold from 13@rts. Thanks for watching, i hope you like it

I saw so many beautiful projects with dreamcatcher in the last time, so i wanted to create one as well. I prepared the surface with black gesso and applied paste mixed with sand and 3d powder for a nice texture. Then i started building the composition with beautiful chipboards from snipart, flowers and many other embellishments,which i covered before with black gesso.  I used Lindy's 'sweet purple violet teal' as my backround color and then i played with some finnabair paints and waxes.  Products i used Amsterdam black gesso Renesans mica paste Pentart 3d powder Snipart chipboards 13 arts paper flowers Retrokraftshop metalembellishments finnabair mechanicals Lindystampgang 'Sweet violet purple teal' Finnabair 'plum preserve' metallique paint Finnabair 'unicorns hair' sparks paint Finnabair 'white gold' metallique wax Finnabair 'Vintage silk' opal magic wax

tiny art on a puzzle piece

Bild
hi everyone! I love tiny creations, i created tiny bottles, tiny art journal pages, tiny canvases.. now it was time to find another small surface to work with. I wanted to turn puzzle pieces into fridge magnets and I played with several elements around - small gears would be perfect as embellishments, so i had found the style for it. But what next? I spend some hours with experimenting and searching for a nice composition, and suddenly i found it... i thought about this one photo of my boyfriend, i wanted to use for a mixed media project. Yes, this would be great for a steampunk creation and i decided to create a tiny layout on a puzzle piece. I wrote the lyrics of one of our favorite songs on an old book page and glued it on the puzzle piece. I applied a coat of gel medium as a sealer. To give this project a little bit texture, i mixed finnabair artalchemy paint 'steampunk copper' with extra heavy gel medium and applied this paste through a stencil to my background. After
