Hi friends,

I'm very happy about my new DT - The Mirror crack'd -, so many very talented ladies and such  beautiful inspirations to my favourite theme Mixed Media!

 Welcome to our Sixth Challenge. We are really enjoying seeing all your fabulous works of art, and your creative imaginations.
For this, our second challenge of 2015, we would like you to create a mixed media Album cover or Journal cover – Any subject, but using multiple techniques and materials.



Supplies:
corrugated cardstock
black + white Gesso
white stamp inkpad
Stencils Clock + Texture + Letters
Embellishments

spray ink white + brown

Details


 faces and letters with Modeling clay (air drying) + black Gesso + silver patina



the letters are dancing, that's Art ;-)!

so steht mein Art journal bei mir im Regal,

(das immer noch für neue Geistesblitze sorgt ;-))

Happy crafting!!

  3. Hello Kerstin.
    Oh you are very brave choosing a Black palette, but you have your values perfect in relationship to light and dark. Your Silver calms the whole design wonderfully. It is dramatic, loud and bold....Loving the elements and your dancing letters!!!!

  6. Wow, Kerstin,

    was für ein genial schönes Cover! Spannend, dass es trotz der eher dunklen Farbpalette überhaupt nicht düster wirkt.Dafür aber sehr wertvoll! Genau richtig als Cover für all die schönen Seiten, die in dem Art Journal noch entstehen werden. Bin noch ein wenig im Hintertreffen mit Nachlesen all dessen, was ich im Schiurlaub verpasst habe. ;)

    Ein toller Einstand!

    Bussi,
    Claudia x
