Creative Artiste September Challenge - Mixed Media

  Time for another great challenge over at Creative Artiste. Our theme is always is

"Anything Mixed Media Goes"

Please make sure you use multiple mediums on your projects. Please respect that we do not currently accept Instagram or Facebook entries. Only correctly linked blog entries please. 

The term “mixed media art” is a broad definition that covers many forms of arts and crafts, including collage, assemblage, altered objects, handmade greeting cards, artist trading cards (ATCs) tags and art journaling  as long as you use different mediums.

The “mixed media” used includes paint, paper, pastes, sprays, powders, textural elements, clay, resins, fabrics, found objects, photos, metal, inks, pencils, markers and pastels to name just a few.

This is my project for September,a mixed media fairy birthday book.

. 

I purchased this chipboard album from Scrapbook.com to make this album for a friend's daughter who was having a birthday. 

I had lots of fun putting the book together. I used a combination from my collection of digital stamps, cutting dies and rubber stamps. 

I used designer card stock by Crafter's Companion called Cosmic Collection, assorted papers from my stash, rubber stamps, cutting dies,  acrylic paints,Distressed inks to create the background pages. 

I also added some sentiments and a poem. I left a few empty areas to added best wishes.To close the book I used a dainty chain and a key and lock set. 

I really liked how the book unfolded.
