About Me

Welcome to my crafting blog. After retirement, my husband and I moved to a beautiful location in the Okanagan area of British Columbia. I love all paper crafts including mixed media, journaling and cards. I also dabble in papermaking, photography, fibre art, and altered books. I am an active member of several card and mixed media groups and on the design team of several challenge blog. I love the world of blogging, it has opened many doors for me. My favourite quote is by Maya Angelou. “You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have.” I hope you join me in my search for my creative side. Thanks for stopping by!

Creative Artiste - December Challenge - Anything Goes Mixed Media

 Creative Artiste - December Challenge - Anything Goes Mixed Media

  Time for another great challenge over at Creative Artiste. This is our last challenge for 2024.

Our theme is as always 

"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. 

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.

For this month challenge I have created  some large chip board Christmas tags for their gifts for under the tree. 

These are the Christmas tags 





For these tags I used the following products:

acrylic paints

Simmering paints

 Tim Holts dies and rubber stamps

Scraps of designer Christmas paper

Glitter paint

Ribbon and buttons

Snowflake dies

glitter paper

gems

Nuvo

glitter pens and powders

Copic markers

Thank you for stopping by and have a creative month and a Happy Holiday season. Remember to stop by our challenge blog to be inspired by our talented design team. We will not have another challenge into February 2025.

All the best to you and your family and the best to you in 2025.
