Vintage Padlock - Nicole Palos

Hello mixed-media fans!

This week I created a vintage lock using Mdf !

I first started off gluing and painting the lock with Finnabair black gesso.

I created my collage with Finnabair moulded pieces I poured with resin.





I used new moulds with extra added bits

Next I brushed on finnabair wax in graphite, and followed that with burgundy and aged brass. For a finishing touch I used finnabair glitter that matches the aged brass perfectly!

Echoes of Time – Mixed Media Art Journal by Margarita Shkludova

Hello, creative friends! Margarita Shkludova here.

Today I’m sharing a new spread from my art journal filled with rich vintage tones and bold color accents.

For this piece, I used the new A3 Decoupage Fiber “Chestnut Street” and Ephemera “Time Travellers” from Finnabair. These beautiful materials instantly transport you to another era — to sepia portraits, faded letters, and stories that feel both distant and deeply familiar. I love how they add a nostalgic, almost cinematic atmosphere to the pages.



The faces in these portraits remind me of strength, determination, and quiet dreams. The golden touches from Jewel Effect Paste bring light and movement, while deep teal and rust tones create contrast and a sense of time passing. It feels like the artwork captures that moment when history and imagination meet — when we remember that every journey starts with courage.


I invite you to watch the video tutorial on creating this art journal. Enjoy watching!


Don’t be afraid to aim high and believe in your creative path — time always rewards the brave dreamers.

See you next time!

Time Travellers Mixed-media canvas by Lanette

Hello Amazing Creative Souls!
Today I’m so excited to share a Mixed Media Canvas featuring Finnabair’s brand-new Time Traveller Collection! This release is pure magic — every piece works together beautifully, and I couldn’t resist using them all for this project!

I started by building my background with the gorgeous Decoupage Fiber, which added instant texture and interest. Then I layered in color and dimension with the Wax and Effect Set — the tones are absolutely stunning! To finish it off, I chose a striking piece from the Ephemera Set as my focal point, pulling the whole design together perfectly.

Thank you so much for stopping by today — I hope this project inspires you to dive into your own creative adventure.

Until next time — Hugs and Happy Creating!
