The colours of Autumn are so glorious. Teamed with the real fern leaf that I collected and pressed last year, I feel that this portrays the joys of Autumn so well. For more detail, feel free to pop over to my blog.
The new theme this month is Mixed Media with Autumnal hues and for my second project I mixed ink, paint and stamped elements to make a journal page. The fabulous quote is from Anne of Green Gables! I hope you'll join in with us this month, there's a prize for the winner if you do!
and welcome to my second inspiration post for this months challenge which was set by the lovely Rachel and she wants us to make a Mixed Media piece with Autumnal hues. I have made a tag this time :
If you'd like to know how I made it then hop over to my BLOG where I explain everything.
Good morning, today I'm showing you this cute creature hiding in the woods...
For the Mixed Media element I created a bark background with all sorts of paints and you can read my warts and all account of how that went on my blog. Do come by and have a look, he's not only cute but fabulous too...
Good morning and happy Thursday, it's Sue here and I'm very happy to be sharing my second Autumn coloured piece.
I love using the DecoArt Quinacridone colours, and there's a little bit of re-cycling going on too. More details can be found here on my blog. Have a great day, and thanks for looking xx
Hello everybody! Rachel here today trying to tempt you into joining our challenge this month. I have created a very personal memory piece today that has an autumnal theme aswell as autumnal hues. If you would like to read more about the stamps I used and how I put it together please head over to my blog here.
Good morning! I have chosen the theme of our new challenge to be mixed media and Autumnal hues. Autumn is my favourite time of year and I would love to see you entering anything mixed media in autumnal colours - the topic is not Autumn ...but of course you can do anything based around autumn as long as the colours are right!!!! I do hope you can join us. If you want to know more about how I made my piece please check out my blog here.
Brrrr Autumn has certainly arrived in my part of the word. But this does bring those lovely crisp mornings and beautiful coloured leaves that dogs love to play in, especially this one.
More details can be found here on my blog. Have a wonderful Autumn, and play in those leaves!
Autumn seems to have arrived in my corner of the world very quickly. I’m a real summer gal so the trees changing colour and the cooling weather always comes as quite a shock!
I wanted to make something to celebrate a colleague’s 39 years at my place of work (quite an incredible achievement!) and when I saw the new theme I knew I could combine the two!
I used a variety of yellows, oranges and browns to colour these new Dylusions flowers and arranged them on the tag with a die cut banner. Gabrielle x
For the new Mixed Media challenge set by the lovely Rachel I have an art journal page :
I enjoyed making this and if you'd like to see the process then hop over to my blog HERE or straight to YouTube. I will be back soon with more inspiration !
October and autumn have arrived with a bang...or should I say with a bump in the night? For my mixed media card with autumnal hues I have a clue to what is on its way....
Yes it's the time of the year when things are starting to get a little chilling and mysterious over at my blog. I used several mixed media techniques on my card. If you would like to see my step by step click here where a very spooky warm welcome awaits.
For our October challenge I created an autumnal tag.
Since this challenge is about mixed media, I used inks, acrylic paints, glossy medium, paper, fabric, cork sheet etc. But you can find the whole details over on my blog.
Although I love summer and the warm temperatures, autumn has it´s beautiful sides too. The colors of this season are spectacular. The glowing colors of the trees are wonderful.
I made a vintage card in fitting colors of autumn.
If you want to find out how I made it, please visit my blog.
