I have been taking a class on Mixed Media and I love it....unfortunately I am very slow at it. There is a bit of stamping on this project but it is mostly paint, artist spackle, india ink, chalk and gel medium. This is very different than the usual work I do.....and I am glad that I tried it. Also I used Tim Holtz digital pictures and several of his stamps. I used pan pastels and inca gold on various stencils. The little girl in the picture is my Mother when she was young. It was fun to incorporate a family picture with the art. Also the date on the project says March 31st....but my camera is not displaying the correct date. It is always something! Thanks for stopping by to look at my project! Why don't you try something you haven't done before? You may like it!
These are two cards from Day 1 of the Clean & Simple Card Classes by Kristina Werner and Maile Belles. Both cards are quite different from each other and very fun to make. It was actually harder for me to make the flat card than it was to make the layered look. I don't know why....I guess I tend to want to layer things more and it was a little out of the box from what I usually do. I really had to rely on a steady hand!
