Today it was time for my mixed media project for CiLi in Papers, usually I make a page in my Art Journal but this time I wasn't in the mood so I made four mixed media cards instead. Well, they aren't so much mixed media as made with some supplies I usually don't use as often on cards.
This one is embossing paste with embossing powder on top.
This one are a plaid that I painted using Distress paint. I masked off the stripes using post it tape to make them equally wide. I like the layering of colors because you can see the stripes in the color since I added it with the dauber.
Here's just the left over from the previous card.
I went a little crazy with the Distress Paints, I drew triangles and made free hand lines and went nuts with the stamps. Very artsy, not my fav but I was in the mood to play so I decided on keeping it because as long as you have fun it doesn't have to be perfect, right? I do have a bit too much OCD to do this all the time but once in a while it's fun!
See you soon! Until then, have a great weekend and take care :)
I actually really like your arty triangles. I think it is the best of the bunch!

Love the artsy triangles and we need to remember when experimenting that it doesn't have to be perfect to look awesome and this looks like you did it deliberately and I love it! Karen x
