Strange & Unusual by Lori Woods

 Hello creative friends! 

For my latest project I wanted to make something completely different. I had an old Halloween decoration on my desk and decided to turn it into a slightly creepy but sparkly frog!

I started by covering the body with some scraps of decoupage fiber to create a solid base. I painted the legs and head with Sparks paint to give a base coat of colour.  I spread effect pastes onto a plastic sheet and peeled these off when dry. These create great flexible media that can be cut into any shape you like. I cut lots of circles out to imitate scales and then glued these across the body.

For the base I used modelling paste to create texture and added air dry clay leaves that I bent into shape when they were still flexible. I coloured everything with paint and finished off with some wax to create a contrast.

Adventure Awaits - mixed-media canvas by Judith

 Hello everyone,

Today I have a project for you with nice bright colors and lots of glitter.

First, I worked on the base with Pearl Effect Paste Dusk. And I used a stencil from the Victorian Tiles set.

As you have come to expect from me, I used many resin embellishments again from various beautiful Finnabair moulds.

Finally, I used the Effect Paste Phoenix set, from Ember Dusk Effect Paste set.

Vintage art-journal pages by Artajunk

 Hi everyone,

This time I created art journal spread. I used my favorite impasto and liquid acrylic. They work together perfectly! I added some wax to make the pages more shiny. I made simple composition with only few elements.    

Have fun creating!!
