In celebration of the
upcoming holidays, this will be our last challenge of 2013! Rather than the
usual color combos to play with we are offering you, the artist, the option to
play with whatever colors inspire you to create a holiday mixed media
project!
DEADLINE to play is: TUESDAY, DECEMBER 17TH AT 6:00 PM EASTERN,
USA.
We will resume the challenge on Friday, January 3rd.
Link it up at A Mixed Media Color Challenge.
Here is MY mixed media canvas:
I collaged papers for the background,
Added damask molding paste and a white embossed tree,
Used rub-ons and snowflakes and felt roses and doodles and tissue tape,
Added text stamping and the sentiment ~ I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas!
It IS a Dream since I'm living in Florida! LOL!
Here are some photos of my process:
Collaged papers
Cut out the red 25
Added molding paste damask
Sprayed through a stencil
Used pinking shears to cut out music papers and stamped text and dots
Then I got carried away and forgot to take more photos!
Here it is again, all done and now hanging on my wall!
I hope you come play with us and add YOUR creation to our gallery at
A Mixed Media Color Challenge!
And here's wishing YOU a wonderful, happy and healthy holiday!
Thanks for supporting our challenge!
