Altered Coffee Container

Time for another mixed media challenge at Splashy Mixed Media Challenge.  

Create any mixed media project with inspiration from our mood board and let us know what inspired you.  Love these colours together. 

This is my project, an altered container that I made using the inspiring mood board. 

This is my container I started with.

I sanded my canister and removed the hardware then painted it with a coat of gesso primer. I added some designer paper from my stash in grey tones. Added some hand painted butterflies, splashes of yellow paint, handmade felt yellow roses, and created a top for the canister using the center of of a ribbon container and some paper flowers.  To complete the project I used ribbons and dollar store gems from my stash. 

Here is another view of the project.

Check out our prises from our wonderful sponsors.

By the Sea I long to Be

It is time for another challenge at Splashy Mix Challenges.

The winter season is nearly over and spring is just around the corner here in Canada.  Hopefully this morning is our last snow fall.  I am looking forward to the colours of spring and summer, lots of sunshine and warm days. 

Hence we have the below moodboard and feel free to be inspired by anything below and join our challenge.

Moodboard



This is my canvas that I created for this challenge.


 
I have call the canvas "Near the Sea I Long to Be".  I grew up having the pleasure of being near the ocean, playing on the beach and being able to enjoy the pleasures of warm sea breezes and the summer suns.  

For my canvas I used acrylic paints, die cuts, rubber stamps, shells, ink pens and cheese clothe for my net.  It was fun creating something from my past that was very important to me.  

Thank you for stopping by and have a creative month.  Hope you will join us in this March challenge and remember to visit our blog to be inspired by our creative design team.  We have some wonderful prizes for some lucky winners.
