Mixed Media Altered Paintbrush - DT Scrapki-Wyzwaniowo

We are mid month and that means a new reveal over at the Scrapki-Wyzwaniowo challenge blog! This month is all about paintbrushes! It's such a cool theme and I had really fun making this project.

This is what I came up with for this challenge: 

I've altered a cheep paint brush using Finnabair's awesome gesso's and Prima's Colorblooms.. I also played with the IOD's molds and Finnabair's Art Supplies. 

I sprayed with the Colorblooms - Deep Teal and Brimstone. Added loads of Art Stones, flowers and different type of flowers. I also used some of the melange pebbels and Finnabiar nobs. I sprinkled some microbeads in black to add some deepth to the brush. 

I really loved this cross witch is a Relic and Artifacts from Sandra Evertson. Like I said in my last post, I've been using them more and more lately.. probably influenced by my good friend Heather Thompson and all the Muse girls.

I used a mould to make this piece. I used it when the clay was still wet so I could add it around the brush. A little pebble in the center was a perfect fit. I painted on top with the metallique paints - Ancient Coin.

Would you like to take part in the challenge? Please take a look at the Scrapki-Wyzwaniowo blog for challenge rules, info and prizes.

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today. Would love to hear what you think! :)

Crescent Moon Dreamcatcher - Artists Live Ustream Show

Every month I'm up on the Artists Live Ustream Channel and I re-create a project in a Live free class. The show airs every monday at 20.00 CET. This time, I made a Crescent Moon Dreamcatcher using a whole range of Finnabair's mixed media projects.

Using an embroidery hop for my dreamcatcher circle and loads of ribbons, Sandra Evertson Relics to put together this 6" Dreamcatcher.

I used Finnabair's black gesso, white gesso, Soft matte gel, Art Stones and Mini Art Stones to make the insides of the dreamcatcher. Everything is colored with the Oil Pastels from Prima. Would you like to see who I made this, you can watch the recording of the show.

Remember this is just a recording of the show so there will be some interaction with the audience watching on the day it's recorded. 

I just love the Sandra Evertson Relics and Artifacts and have worked a bit with them these past months. I painted these with black gesso and added oil pastels to color and finished off with Viva Decor - Inka Gold - Old Silver. The ribbon is colored with Color Bloom - Deep Teal, Tea Stain and White Frost.

The moon is die-cutted out of the crescent moon and stars dies from Tim Holtz. Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today.. would love to hear what you think about my dreamcatcher. Have a great Valentine's Day! - Yasmin

Finnabair Weekend - Class Project Part 3

Hello lovelies! It's time to share my third project for the Finnabair weekend at Bikuben the 11-13th of November. This class project was the first I made and we learned all about the use of sculpture medium in the "Verdigris" class.

For this class we made a shadowbox canvas.. I have to say that I wasn't really happy with the way mine turned out.. and I wasn't able to "fix" it in a way I would like it.. but I'm going to share it anyways. :)

So the kit was so filled to the brim with loads of lovelyness. All kinds of metals, fabric, lace and flowers. I added them to my frame and this is what I came up with.

I don't know why I do not like it that much but I do think it's because of the face. I didn't get it right I think. I like all my layers and the textures, and it was a fun project to make and of course you learn so much. You really can't see that spoon that we where suppose to use as a focal point. This piece is sprayed with Primary Elements and painted with gesso and metallique paints. 

I love the Finnabair Mechanicals. They are so easy alterable and they looked so good on this project.

You can see part of the spoon I used on my canvas. I have to say it was a fun class and I liked the project, I'm just not happy with my project. 

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today :) 

Finnabair weekend - Class project part 1

So the weekend of 11-13th of November I took a bunch of Finnabair classes and I enjoyed them so muuuch! I will share so photos from our classes and the project I made. I would like to stress out this is Finnabair's style and the classes are ABSOLUTLY amazing to take part in and you learn soo much. I will split my weekend into 4 seperate post so there will be 3 more like this.

I will start with the class that actually was my second class.. I joined the layers of dreams on Saturday morning. I love making layouts and I was really happy with my result. Usually I am a bit shy and scared to mess things up, but this time I just went with the flow. :) 

This is what I made of the class. I added a black frame to my project and it looks amazing and I can hang it on my wall now. :) 

The frame of course Prima and all the embellishments are also Prima. The photo I used I've used before on a layout, but I think it's just such a fun photo so I just had to use it. 

This rusted elements are sooo cool, I really like the look on them. We just a lot of the art stones as well and splatted with gesso and Colorarte Primary elements. 

Look at all my layers.. It's no way to put this in an album. We used loads of lace, papers and metal embellishment. We painted everything with gesso and misted primary elements on top. Then we added those rusted elements. 

The texture is amazing! We added art stones in both sizes and painted them into our project. I love the color palette with the purples and teals. 

I see that the photo I used comes out really blury in this photo. But it's really not. But you get to see the layers and all the details in the layout and of course all the splatteres we did. It was such a fun class to attend. If you have the chance to go and learn to use Finnabair projects I would highly recommend you doing so! :) 

Thank you so much for your visit today! :) 

Mixed Media Mini Album - DT Maya Road

Hello everyone! It's my day over at the Maya Road blog and this time I wanted to decorate a mini album cover and Maya Road has the best chipboard mini's ever. I also did a video tutorial on it :)

I've use loads of media on my mini album cover and loads of very pretty Maya Road flowers and other embellishments. I've also used Maya Road's doily dies.

 The album is a 5x5" Chipboard Album and comes in natural kraft. I've painted the whole album with white gesso and white crackle paint. Here's the video on how I made my album.

The crackle is gorgeous! I've use Finnabairs Crackle paste  and Lindy's Stamp Gang mist's. to color the crackles. I love the way they get highlighted with color.. 

I love this cute key from Maya Road. It's perfect on the spine of my album. The Felt roses are one of my favorite Maya Road flower. 

I'm entering my mini album in Lindy's stamp gang's moodboard challenge: 

These are the two product's I've used on my mini album:

Happy Layout - DT Flying Unicorn & Maya Road.

Hi all! Today I'm up on the Flying Unicorn blog with two projects today, but I'll be splitting that post into two seperate blogposts to prevent the post being so long, so today I'll be sharing a layout made with Maja Designs "Summer Crush" Collection featuring loads of Prima and Maya Road products. I also made a video tutorial to go with it. :)

This page had such happy colors so if found the title quite fitting for this page. 

I've used gesso in the background, but it doesn't show as well as I wanted I'm afraid. Splashed with colorbloom sprays and white dyluisons white linen mist. 

If you would like to see this layout step-by-step. Please take a look at my video tutorial:

The title is a chipboard piece from 13@rts. The little hanger and paper clip piece is from Maya Road. Love those. The little felt flowers are also Maya Road. The Pearls are from Prima. 

The dimensional crystals from Art Anthology gives a lot of interest to the page. 

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today and make sure to visit tomorrow for a new project and video tutorial.

Today I would like to share another Christmas card. As I was saying in my last post I did teach loads of christmas card classes in October trough out December, so this card was one of those cards I taught :)

I've used loads of Papirdesign goodies on my card along with some Tim Holtz dies. All papers, flowers and the "Julehilsen" is from Papirdesign.

It just needs to be square. :) I've used a Tim Holtz die to die cut the skates and the holly leaves. Decorated with flowers from Papirdesign and added loads of microbeads and mica flakes to create a snow effect.
