Mixed-media Easter Egg by Kasia Salmanowicz

Hello,

Although there's still a lot of time left until Easter, I've already decided to make an Easter egg. It's different than usual, because it's a mixed-media one, full of textures with the addition of Clay elements and Finnabair moulds, which you're probably already familiar with.

As a base, I chose an egg with a bow made of HDF material, plus pieces of lace and fabric, and accessories from moulds – you can find the full list of products used at the end, so be sure to check it out and visit the Mixed Media Place store.

I chose four colors from the Liquid Acrylic Paint series, which blended beautifully with water. After they were completely dry, I bleached them thoroughly.

I invite you to watch my video tutorial, where you'll see all the steps.

Have a nice day,

Kasia Salmanowicz

Little Time Travelers – Art Journal Page by Priss BlaFu

 Hello! I’m Priss, and today I’m sharing a mixed media art journal page inspired by the idea of childhood as the beginning of tomorrow.

I worked on kraft paper, which naturally brings warmth and a subtle vintage mood. From the start, I knew I wanted to soften that feeling and move the page toward something lighter and more hopeful.

The focal point of this composition is a small group of children, arranged as if they are sitting together in a circle. Around them, I layered book paper scraps, clocks, tickets, threads, and the “Study” label to build a story about time, growth, and learning.

The clocks represent time passing, but not in a nostalgic way. Instead, I wanted them to feel like quiet witnesses of the present moment — a reminder that while children play, explore, and dream, they are already shaping who they will become.

To create this atmosphere, I combined soft layers of tissue paper, texture with stencils, and subtle touches of grey, blue, and gold mica powders. The light behind the children was especially important to me, as it helps guide the eye and reinforces the feeling of hope.

Even though many elements have a vintage look, my intention was not to look back, but to look forward. Childhood is not just a memory — it is the foundation of the future.

You can watch the full step-by-step process in the video tutorial linked below.

Thank you so much for stopping by, and have a wonderful day of creative joyful making.

Happy creating! 💙

Priss

Steampunk Garden by Judith Tijsen

 Hello there, it’s Judith.

Here I am with a new creation. This time I used a base in the shape of a gear, which I embellished with the "Old Pages" stencil.

For the colors, I chose beautiful glossy paints and waxes. The whole thing gets an extra shine with the Effect Paste ‘Golden Dragon’. I hope you like it and see you next time.

You can see the details, the composition, the materials and the techniques that I have used in this video tutorial.
