Mixed Media Leaves

 Well, today I decided to try some mixed media. Yikes. It is wayyyyyyy out of my comfort zone. lol  I saw the blog challenge Creative Artiste Mixed Media and got inspired to try it. I used distress oxides, distress paint, fibers, dye ink, some die cuts and various stamps. I don't know what to think about it, but hey, I stamped and made a card today. :)

Do you like mixed media? It can be fun and messy to change things up and try it every now and then! It's been a long day, so I'm off to find my pajamas, quilt, and a book. See you tomorrow.

SSS Wednesday Challenge with Tim Holtz

One of my goals for the year is to finish up three of the classes from Online Card Classes that I've signed up for.  I thought I'd work on the Tim Holtz Creative Chemistry 102 a bit this week.  Again, EASTER!  lol  I had never inked up this particular stamp, so why not?  I used Distress Paint for the background.  I tried to match my Copics with the same colors when I did the egg.  I think I got pretty close.  :)   I'm entering it in the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge.

I'll try to get back to adding supply lists when I have time. Hopefully that will help with some of the questions I get and have no way to reply to the person asking.

The butterfly center had an amazing display where you could watch as they came out of their pupa.  It was the coolest thing!  We've watched them in our backyard, but only 1 or 2 at a time.  They had so many!  It's just a really cool place.
