Vibe Journal Page by Suzanne Franin

Hi Everyone Suzanne here

My turn on the blog today and I decided to do a Journal page 

My cousin had posted this picture on Instagram and I loved it (It actually looks like her and she loves all animals) 

So don't forget to check out the Mixed Media Supplies Facebook Page to see what's happening and see what the Design Team are up too and join in on what's happening

I've made a YouTube Video of the process - which is pixelated if anyone can help please leave me a comment so I can sort it out (I've tried everything to fix the issue) 

You can still watch the video it's only a little annoying

I started by adding book paper across the centre of the page tearing it up randomly but keeping the edges of the pages to the straight edges of the rectangle

I used a lined stencil across the middle of the page just on the book paper

I used the Copper Bronze and Sapphire Blue Mica Powder's on the back ground mixing it with water and dripping it down the lines 

I used the Diamond Fence Rubber Stamp randomly over the page

With the Sapphire Blue I made it darker to make it look like the little bird was flying to her

The paper flowers I painted with the Shimmer Pearl and Coral Reef Mica Powder just with a touch of water and when I started drying them the paper started to fluff up so it gave them some dimension

I loved this quote and it's why I added all the extra birds to the page 

Thanks for visiting and I hope you will come back soon xx

Birds nest by Suzanne

 

 

Hi Everyone Suzanne here

 

Welcome to the first day of February  

 

I have all these shadow boxes from the little timber embellishment pieces that I've collected

 

The boxes have piled up and so I had to find something to do with them

 

Here's one I created using a few little birds, a nest, some flowers, stems and leaves I cut out with my scan n cut

 

 

The birds I painted with the Sapphire Blue Mica Powder it's such a vibrant blue

 

The nest is in the Copper Bronze Mica Powder my favourite colour

 

The tiny little heart that is on the nest is the Coral Reef Mica Powder it's so pretty

 You can find all these Mica Powders form the Store

 

 

I also put a little bit of the Coral Reef Mica Powder on the flowers after spraying them with water first so they weren't too bright I just wanted the colour on the edges of the flowers

 

 

On the stems I painted the Shimmer Pearl Mica Powder  unfortunately the camera doesn't pick up the beautiful shimmer that powder gives off

Thanks for visiting and I hope you will come back soon xx

Houses in a Row by Suzanne

 

Hi Everyone Suzanne here for my first post for the new year

 I hope you all had a safe and happy start to it

 

Make sure you check out our social media pages to keep up to date - Facebook and Instagram, 

to see what everyone is up too

 

I got these little houses and decided to decorate them with the Digital Journal Printable Pages 

that I printed out on textured cardstock

 

 

I used 4 different stencils that I thought looked simular to bricks then I used the 4 different Mica Powders Shimmer Pearl , Coral Reef, Sapphire Blue and Copper Bronze

 

 

The base I covered with green paint mixed with white sand and green paint

it took a while to dry but once it did it looked great with the texture





 

I added little flowers around to make it look like little flowers growing out the

front of the gardens of the houses

Even though Christmas is over I the trees still needed something so I

added little pearls for a little shimmer

 

With the backs of the houses I thought I couldn't leave them just timber so

I used some of the texture paste and patted it down so it gave it some texture

and then dripped the mica powders down the back as well

Thanks for visiting and I hope you will be back soon xx
