My Way Of Living

Just sharing a recent collage I've made. I like to create in neutral colors sometimes even I'm more of a colorful person. In this particular piece I've incorporated paint, which I normally don't unless I use a gelli print as a background. #color #collage #paper #handmade #mixedmedia #doodling #paint #painting #background #craft #ink #design

I started with one idea for this little panel but it ended being totally different from what I thought. I wanted to use this plaster circle I did a while ago, so suddenly I placed it over the background which was too small (5"X7"), so I finally I mounted it on a 20"X20" canvas. Many stencils, tea bags, only three colors, (medium gray, light gray and yellow, all matte finish paints) and wire. The piece with circles was made with a technique I just discovered and will be showe

In this video I'm using some of the backgrounds created in previous videos to make gift wraps, bags, envelopes and cards. I'm also showing new backgrounds. #background #paint #painting #color #design #card #embossed #sew #tutorial #image #craft #simple #mixedmedia #handmade #howto #video #paper #DIY

This is the third of my series of videos creating easy to more complex backgrounds. In the next video I will create more complex backgrounds with various techniques. I didn't cover fluid media as watercolor, India inks, acrylic inks, etc. because I'll be demonstrating them during the processes. #simple #background #tutorial #video #color #design #ink #painting #blog #paper #mixedmedia #howto #handmade #paint

As you can see I have missed a few prompts but I'm doing my best to continue on the challenge. This week's prompt was a "real" challenge so I kept it super simple trying not to add too many images to the ripped page to stay as true as possible to the original. #stencilfiedjournal, #stencilgirl #stencilgirl #prompt #challenge #painting #ink #doodling #blog #paper #color #collage #design #mixedmedia #DIY #stencil #paint

This is the second of a series of videos from basic to more complex backgrounds. In this one I'll be using water soluble media and powders. There are much more of these products in the market and I only show a few of them. #video #tutorial #background #painting #mixedmedia #blog #paper #color #design #DIY #handmade #simple

I'm starting a series of videos on creating simple backgrounds to more complex ones. I'll be using them to create projects too. #painting #video #tutorial #paint #design #paper #DIY #mixedmedia #howto #handmade

This is part of sort of a challenge managed by Tina Walker for Stencilgirl Stencils, where we have prompts to create. This is my take on the prompt This is how I started #challenge #prompt #color #design #paint #stencil #stamp #stamping #painting #doodling #journal #blog #paper #image #mixedmedia #handmade #collage #thestencilfiedjournal #stencilgirl #gelliprints

It's been quite a long time I haven't made a journal and now I did two. This one was created with mixed media paper and a few painted papers inside This one was made out of cardstock #book #bookbinding #journal #mixedmedia #paper #painting #sew #DIY #color #design #handmade
