As always our DT have been creating some mixed media magic, let's check out what they've been up to this week:

Tracy Evans - I opted for a mixed media altered Artist Trading Block this week.






Terry, I had fun working on a Shabby Chic Canvas, at first I did not know where to start but when I did I did not wanted to stop adding stuff to the canvas. Worked with Gesso, Light Modelling Paste, lots of Panpastels, White Coarse and finished with Matt Gel Medium. Lots of roses have been added, stamps been used. And offcourse a Butterfly in the centre had to be placed.







Yvonne - An ATC for this week using Panpastels and silhouette stamps.


Claire C I've made a quick Christmas card this week, I've used my PanPastels to colour the robin and to distress my papers too







Tracy Scott- I love creating crazing backgrounds in my art journal and adding some of my favourite PanPastel colours over the top in areas really does make the colours pop.

As always our DT have been creating some mixed media magic, let's check out what they've been up to this week:

Tracy Evans - I opted for a masculine card this week using my favourite PanPastels....The Metallics!







Yvonne - A moth theme this week!  More details over on my blog.








Tracy Scott - Sometimes you just need to play, I love my acrylic paints and use them a lot on art journal pages but always find that adding my PanPastels over the top enhances the colours and adds a real sense of depth !!


Claire C I've had lots of messy fun creating this MDF buttefly, you can find all the details on my blog






Terry, I have made a heartsy wallhanger, I played with White Paint for the first layer, after that I worked with the Red Iron PanPastel, another layer of Light Modelling Paste with the stencil of Dutch Doobadoo the small roses allmost finished the background. On top I played with crackle and the Gell Medium. The hearts on the inside of the wallhanger are made out of an empty Card Board Hearts Art. Made the hearts with the Light Modelling Paste and they are colored with Panpastels and finished with Gell Medium. I love the texture that came out of it by heating it with the heattool.



These are the products that I have worked with.....





Lou: I decided to alter a paper mache suitcase using papers and of course my pan pastels.
