Mixed Media Thoughts #4 - Art Journal Play

Hi there!

It's time for a new video in my series "Mixed Media Thoughts".
I'm sharing some of my intuitive art journal spreads in this series. All videos will NOT be part of any Design Team work. I pick the supplies that I wanna use right in this moment.
Art Journaling is a very big part of my creative life. It means, I find time to get some mental relief, I write down the thoughts or quotes that are imortant for me.
Creating in my journal is also some kind of art practicing. I learn a lot about the different mediums, I am using, and I develope new ideas to use in prospective work.

Of course I will always give you a list of supplies. I know how frustrating it is, if you see a tool in a video and can't find out what it is. You will find the supplies in the video description.

I hope I can give you some inspiration. Art journaling doesn't have to be perfect!!! The result must have a meaning to YOU.
Your body needs movement your soul needs colours, patterns and words - no perfection!

Enjoy the video!

Mixed Media Shadow Box with Tim Holtz Die

I created a shadow box from the Tim Holtz Tiny Houses die.


My main images are from the Textured Spring stamp set. I combined them with the Tim Holtz Wildflowers, they are cut from left over papers. I used ColourCraft  Brushos to colour the background and WOW! Sparkles for some glamour!

STAMPlorations Typografia CHRISTMAS - Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the STAMplorations Typografia CHRISTMAS Blog Hop!

STAMPlorations has released some awesome Typografia stamps recently and today we want to show you samples with the Christmas themed ones.

https://stamplorations.blogspot.com/2017/10/typografia-christmas-blog-hop.html

Here are my inspirational pieces:

Lets start with a Christmas card. I used the stamp together with Memento Luxe Wedding Dress on some black cardstock to achieve a chalk board look. I love chalkboard and Christmas combined together. 


Matching the chalkboard card I have a chalky gift tag. In addition to the stamped images I used the ARTplorations mini stars stencil for some extra texture.


Last but not least I have a very colourful version of a Christmas tag with kind of a mixed media style. I used bonding powder together with gold foil for this stamped image. The foiled parts act as a resist to any kind of watercolours. So I used Brusho Powders to colour the background. I cut some stars from old book paper to add some more interest to the tag.


I hope you like my pieces. Thank you for stopping by! Have fun hopping along today!

xx Susanne.
