Mixed Media Layout : Dream Imagine

Hello all,

I am not a big mixed media artist but slowly and steadily I am trying my hands on this craft style.
Whenever I get an opportunity to do mixed media I try to give my best.

Today I have made a mixed media layout with two strong sentiments DREAM and IMAGINE.
Together they make it happen what you want to do in reality.

If you can imagine it, you can achieve it. If you can dream it, you can become it.--William Arthur Ward


I have first used font stencil on the base paper and also added a criss cross design with fiber paste
Painted the clock with cinnamon metallic color.  I then distressed the edges of  all the papers ..On another burlap paper I heat embossed the clock design with embossing texture paste, Then added criss cross stencil design on the brick paper. Heat embossed the sentiments with embossing texture paste . Finally tucked cheese cloth, several layers of pieces of pattern paper and added few flowers.

Supplies used
Texture brew PP
Mixed media Paste
Embossing Texture Paste
Fiber Paste
Cinnamon Metallic Color
Cheese cloth
Mdfs : Clock, Dream Imagine, Wall
Flowers

Hope you all like my small project.
Happy Crafting

Mixed Media Reverse Canvas frame

Hello friends,
I present to you a mixed media reverse canvas frame .
This was my first try for out an out mixed media canvas.
Was really apprehensive at first but was quite happy with the outcome.
Will make more often as I quite liked the whole process.

I tied a cord on the bigger canvas and then attached the reversed smaller canvas .
Applied gesso and then arranged the metals , chippies , laces, corrugated torn sheets, mdf sentiments.
With stencils, cheese cloth I added texture to the frame.
After everything was stuck I sprayed different colors on the white background . (forgot to click the pic) now after heat drying the whole canvas i painted everything with black gesso and then highlighted everything with inka gold.

I hope you also like the canvas as much as I loved making it.
happy Crafting.

Live Life Like a Butterfly

Hello all,

Feeling so great as a DT for the Quilling Blog.
This times Challenge really made me think as to what I should make.

Here we had to recycle/up-cycle any product and use Quilling as embellishment .

I did not want to do the usual Recycle/upcycle
So I came up with something very different.
This was in my list of try outs for a long time.
Finally got the right project to give it a try.
Look out for more fabulous inspiration from other DTs also at IQCG CH #24

I have up-cycled an Embroidery Hoop 
Firstly I put Gesso on the Hoop and then Distressed it with
Mustard Seed and Festive Berries,
Then stuck Burlap.
Used Festive Berries DI to stencil Butterfly on to the burlap.
Used Green Quilling Strips to form a  Lined Mesh so that photos can be hung using pegs.
Added adhesive flat pearl  all around the hoop.
Using Malaysian Technique made Blue and Pink Combo Flowers .
Arranged it with leaves and scrolls on two sides of the hoop.
Added 2 Mdf Lanterns with Festive Berries DI
Took two wooden pegs and added butterflies to it.
Now Photos can be added. 2-3 photos can be hung here.
This hoop can be used as Wall hanging or as a table top Decor.
I have placed it near my Dressing Table with my daughter's pic.
Will be adding two more pics of her with me and my hubby.
I really loved the Quote LIVE LIFE LIKE A BUTTERFLY,
so I printed and stuck it with double sided tape.
This Quote gives me a kind of positive inspiration to
Enjoy and make the most of your life.
