Mixed Media


Hi everyone!

After long hectic schedule we finally got the time for vacation. Last weekend we went to Goa. It was so much fun there.. We enjoyed food, beach and classic time together. So I decided to do one mixed media project to capture my sweet Goa memory on my wall.



I am new in mixed media world. So was very afraid of doing this. But my hubby told me to do so.
This is for first time I m trying hand on this. This will be challenge for me.



I have stared with one 12x12 thick craft sheet. I pasted one Papericious 12x12 paper from premium collection it's peach time for base of my project. Then I sprinkled some water with my Tim holtz mini mister on bottom part of my project, and I created some crease to look like wrinkled curtain.Then I used my stencils to make some designs here and there using home made textured paste. I mixed blue and pink color with textured paste to give colorful pattern. After that I created some outline on textured pattern using my black marker for little highlight. 




Then I added gold net fabric on my project with mod podge. After that I added some water colors like purples, pinks, blues using wet brush, same time I sprinkled same colors. 




Heart is hand cut. I pasted one of my Goa trip picture, this is sun set, so so lovely moment and may be the best situation of my trip. I added crochet lace around heart and on the bottom of creased curtain. and I also distressed the edge of heart using worn lipstick distress ink. Then I added some orange sequins on heart. I also attached two printed sentiments OUR STORIES and OUR MEMORIES, on which again I distressed edge. Then I added pearl chain with curtain. 





I usually notice that Quilling is not so popular with mixed media. So I decided to use quilled flowers with my project. I created some pink and blue flowers with 3mm quilling strips and also some leaves with curly branches. At the end I added two cute punched butterflies. 







Hope you all will like my first Mixed Media project. Thanks for stopping by. Please dont forget to comment.

  18. So sweet to have a very supportive husband and I am glad he encourages you to do it Shivani! This is a beautiful mixed media work especially the quilling flowers do take up lots of time and effort. The photo is so romantic and beautifully photographed; must have been a great time in Goa. Glad you joined STAMPlorations October Mixed Media Challenge and I do have to correct you on using the right challenge graphic to display is not what you show but the other striking red one with Mixed Media Challenge words on it that can be found at STAMPlorations Sunday Stencil posts and this is another point considered to be voted for prize if you are the lucky one. Good luck Shivani :)
