Creative Artiste ~ May Anything Mixed Media Goes #104

 Hello Creatives 

Welcome to Creative Artiste May Challenge #104

our theme is always *Anything Mixed Media Goes*

This month I share a simple Journal page, creating texture 

by embossing the page using an embossing folder layered with 

metallic paints inspired by nature, overlaying with embossing 

powders which I heated up to fix and add extra dimension... 

Reminding me of an aerial view of the coast line 

I added a Peacock Butterfly taken from a salvage napkin. 

I tore, pasted, cut then embellished it's wings adding glossy 

accents and then fashioned wire into little antenna feelers. 

Finished with a quote that worked like poetry in motion: 

*Stop to see the beauty along the way* 

We hope to see your beautiful creations @ Creative Artiste 

please come and share your Mixed Media Creations HERE

My project is a Fantasy Forest journal page with the background 

sketched, painted with watercolour overlaid with coloured pencils. 

Dots of acrylic paints create a woodland carpet of wildflowers...

The Fairy is taken from a colouring book coloured with pencil 

cut then pasted onto my journal page. To complete my Fantasy 

project I added mystical orbs dancing around the woodland Fai...

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
