I don’t have a completed project to show you today, so I thought I’d share a canvas I’m working on for a swap. I used a home decor leaf stamp to make the background. I still need to work on the bird’s beak and I’m not sure if I’m done with the eye. I’ve redone […]

I’m still playing around with skinny book pages. This format is downright addicting. The Bird Made Her Nervous is a melted crayon canvas with a home decor foam flower stamp stamped on it. Overtop of the crayon, I used paper lace and liquid acrylics to create a pattern. I sketched the big bird and used […]

I have been working on skinny book pages for the upcoming skinny book swap I am participating in and had one page that just wasn’t working out. I commented that I had no idea how to fix it and was planning to cut it up for ATC backgrounds. My niece was sitting beside me working […]

It’s July and I have Christmas on my mind. I’ve been working on gifts and decorations for the last few days. One of the things I’ve made is this mixed media star. I cut it from flannel, painted it, stamped it with my current favorite home decor stamp and then sewed it together. I have […]

I finally stopped using the fern stamp and am now addicted to this fleur de lis home decor stamp. I’m playing around with a whole “Measure of a Man” series and this one is the first I’ve completed. The rest are harder because I’m trying to answer the question in this one. Once again, the […]

Today’s mixed media collage is a lot brighter than most of the pieces I do. Once more, I used the fern rubber stamp. I’m going to have to hide it from myself so I break out some of my other stamps!

Don’t be Afraid to Spread Your Wings is another mixed media collage I made using the article in Cloth, Paper Scissors. I used the fern home decor stamp again. I’m very fond of it lately, for some reason.
I took photos of the scanned art so you can see how they really look…

One of the articles in Cloth, Paper, Scissors was by Chrysti, who makes such wonderful backgrounds for her mixed media pieces. I was so excited that I actually went to the store to buy Walnut Ink so I could try some backgrounds. (I guess that doesn’t sound like such a big thing, but it is […]

I’ve been working on a few canvases for I don’t even want to know how long and finished some today. I needed a break and a cup of tea, but I decided to rush out while there wasn’t a breeze and spray a coat of sealer over a canvas that was dry. Well, I grabbed […]
