Mixed Media Art- BELIEVE in yourself

Hello friends

We have made a mixed media layout. It is the first time we are trying our hands at mixed media art. We thoroughly enjoyed making it. Our new year resolution this time is to learn new things and try them. As we tried mixed media for the first time, we are sticking to our resolution and that feels great.




You too can try making this layout.

Materials required-
Cardboard for base
Black gesso
Stencil from Craftangles
Craftangles-Art wax-Iridescent blue
Glimmer paste
Pistachio shells
Hot glue gun
Fevicryl Acrylic colors-Pearl pink
Chippies from Expressions Craft
Punched flowers and hearts
Magazine cut-out
Foam tape-double sided

Procedure
1. Apply black gesso all over the base. Let it dry.
2. Take a magazine cut out of a lady, stick it on the base. Using hot glue gun, stick the pista shells to form the gown for the lady.


3. Paint the shells (gown) with color of your choice.
4. Using glimmer paste, create pattern randomly on the base through the stencil.
5. Paint the chippies with black gesso, after it dries completely, apply some art wax to highlight. Place it on the base with foam tape.
6. Place the punch cuts with foam tape to add dimensions.
7. Add the sentiment, and you are done.






We are linking this to challenges:
1. CrafTangles Challenge for the month - January

2. TTC#7-Something Old,Something New, Something Borrowed/Gifted and Something Blue

Old- cardboard, pistachio shells
