Welcome to another challenge at Creative Artiste.
Our theme is always
"Anything Mixed Media Goes"
Please make sure you use multiple mediums on your projects.
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.
The best thing with Mixed Media is there is no right or wrong way of doing things. There are no boundaries or rules to follow, it is all about where your creativity takes you. Mixed media can be kept simple with minimal clean lines, or as fussy and manic as you like. It's a great way to use up your scraps too, we all are guilty of keeping those little bits and pieces thinking it's too nice to just through away, even those teeny tiny off cuts of ribbon and lace.
Mixed Media is also a great way to upcycle because anything goes. Empty packaging, glass jars or bottles can be transformed. Got a pack of cards that have a few missing - turn them into little mini pieces of art. The possibilities are endless.
Make mixed media work for you, don't doubt yourself thinking you can't do this that or the other because it's might not be your style etc., just add your own twist

This was my first page I added to this week's journal pages.
I used a selection of inks and stamping for the background. The flower stamp is from my collection of unmounted rubber stamp. I used a black pen to add definition to my circles.
The flowers are coloured with Pan Pastels.
For the tags I used a combination of acrylic paint, tissue paper, inks, rubber stamps, inks and found ribbon
