And take a look at this tag - it is totally fab! * * * * * * * * blog facebook instagram youtube pinterest Hiya folks - DeeDee Catron here today :) I am a mixed media artist, instructor and designer. I am the Owner/Creative Director of UmWowStudio, the Marketing & Artistic Director for Viva Las VegaStamps! & a Product Designer for 7 Dots Studio. I am so humbled and honored to not only bring my designs to the arts & crafts industry but to also get the opportunity to work with and for other artists & designers like Finnabair. I'm so glad to be here sharing! I have partnered up some of my favorite Finnabair products with a few staples like 7 Dots Studio papers, UmWowStudio chipboard, VLVS! rubber and more. I hope you enjoy video tutorials and don't hesitate to ask any questions. I'm always around to answer. For this tag I HAD to use Finnabair's rusty barn stars... they are so divine, so heavy, and have so much OOMPH behind them. I chose to use the barn stars as the focus of my project and worked around them with everything else. Add a little glass glitter & some fibers.. and I am one HAPPY girl. ♥♥♥ Supply list : Fortune Teller Palmistry Fortune Teller Soul Prima/Finnabair Soft Matte Gel Prima/Finnabair Gold Rush Glass Glitter Prima/Finnabair Barn Stars Prima/Finnabair Mini Stars Prima Bloom Spray Worn Leather Others: Prima teal twine Golden Fluid Acrylic in Titanium White Viva Las VegaStamps!

It's my goal to have a few things for sale in my Etsy shop for the holidays. So I've been working on a few things that have been rattling around in my head for a while now. I figure if I make what I like someone else may like it too, or at least I hope so. Inspired by the beautiful altered bottles that I've seen around I tried my hand at a few. I had these really pretty rain glass bottles that I thought would be pretty altered. This is how they looked naked. I printed images onto a transparent paper in sepia and glued them to the fronts of the bottles. To this one I added a crystal knob as a stopper and added a tiny vintage beaded earring on top of the knob, then I tied vintage seam binding in a silvery brown around the top and added a little rhinestone chain and a cross to the top of the image. I added lace and a blingy button to this one and a crystal knob with a pearl, rhinestone chain and a tiny crystal. Rhinestone chain embellishment was added in a v shape to the bottom of the lace. Vintage crinkled seam binding in cream was tied around the top. This is two different images put together, first I printed the French script, then the image of Mary was cut out and layered over it. I added a cross to the crystal topper and a little rhinestone chain and tied it with vintage silvery brown seam binding. I'll have more to share soon. Thanks for looking. I'll be joining these ladies this week, Savvy Southern Style Stonegable Craftberry Bush French Country Cottage My Romantic Home

Hi Everybody! Today I don't have a video because the project is too big to be filmed! My canvas is 20 "x 27"! So I painted with black gesso, and glued my embellishments one by one (a lot of recycling), taking care to tighten them against each other, and to make 3 different places! I then put silver wax on all the reliefs, several times to accentuate the effect! Then I chose embellishments which were going to become rusty and make drips on my canvas, as if time had acted !! It only remained for me to do some spots of white ink here and there! XOXO Nirvana! Mixed Media Place supplies:

Привет-привет! Немного загналась в последнее время: работа, заказы... Давно не отрывалась в своё удовольствие. От смурдятины и декаданса в настроении хорошо взять кисти, пасты и в краску по локоть! ))) Для блога Мадам Ажур по коллажу "Элементарное настроение" сваяла артбук с плотными акварельными и крафтовыми листами ( Графи́ческий альбо́м или артбу́к — коллекция изображений и иллюстраций, собранная в виде альбома под одной обложкой ©). Подумалось, мой творческий порыв для другого творческого человека. Люблю смотреть с какой фантазией люди самовыражаются через подобные альбомы, иногда в них целый мир! Но вот сама совершенно точно не найду на подобное ни времени, ни сил. Они отданы скрапу, и похоже, надолго)) Винтажная брошка-бабочка. Мне её отдала когда-то моя любимая тётя, которая живёт в Калининграде (тётя Лена, "Привет!") Даже не представляю сколько ей лет и через какие жизненные перепитии она прошла, чтобы попасть ко мне на артбук. Интересная судьба, не правда ли?))) На точках глосси-акцент, как маленькие капельки воды...
