Memories.. are FOREVER!

Hello Friends, its been a while I have blogged my creative journey and new inspiration with you all! However various challenges around the world tickled me to get into my creative juices.

Today I have a mixed media Canvas for you all inspired by 2 mixed media challenges and also introducing the Craftslane newly launched chips. You can see all the beautiful wooden chips here at the link Craftslane.

Now onto the project, I love keeping 2-3 colors on my canvas while leaving a lot of the white space allowing it to draw most of the focus on the element. Also I prefer to use words and phrases instead of photographs.

I chose the Frame and Memory as a inspiration from the More Than words challenge and the color palette from Mixed Media Art Challenge. Create mixed media textured background on which assembled on the various elements , chips , Prima flowers around a decorate Prima Frame.

Choose a Resin Frame around which all  the elements are assembled and also the word Forever. Memories are for forever hence Forever signifies Memory for me.

The color palette , flower and the butterfly resonates in my mixed media canvas.

Let me know how you liked my projects,

Until then Happy Crafting!

Inspire!

Welcome friends to another beautiful Sunday where I am playing with some spring colors , canvas and brushes. 2018 is a year to experiment, learn new art form and definitely be out of your comform zone. With that thought in mind I created a mixed media canvas inspired by many elements and moodboard.

Primarily the moodboard Mystic at Mixed Media and art inspired me to conceptualize the canvas. Various elements , color and the concept has been incorporated in my canvas.

I picked up the main colors which is shades of green , brown and black.The sketch shape round at one far end inspired me to create the shape of my focal point. For the texture I added moss , leafy woody brances ( These are real ones picked up from the road, washed , dried and then gessoed). The creeper plants in the image also helped me add the branches and leaves.

The word Trilogy inspired me in a fun way I must say. All the trilogy movies have always shown how time has travelled , sitiation has changed and new characters have evolved.I have used a clock stencil to create my background depicting the number III and also a wooden clock chipboard which is added as an element to represent time.

The moodboard has inspired me to collect all my elements , colors that I would use for my project hence the canvas says " Inspire"

I am entering this canvas in the below challenge:

Happy Morning!

A very good morning to a happy bright Sunday! Welcome all my readers to another post where I create with Susan's Flower dies. Working with sunflower has been one of my most enjoyable moment and that too always.

The bright color, vibrance and its largeness has always captures me. Today I have a semi mixed media ( if i may name so) canvas featuring the sunflower.

The canvas is prepared by a thin layer of Gesso on which all the coloring and the texturing is created. Later the bouquet is assembled.
