WBCM PICS Page One-Word Prompts

Hey Sweeties,

I decided to take some inspiration from my own page. I decided to do the One-Word Prompt. I did all the words.

It wasn’t about putting a meaning to all the words as I do in The Word Book. It was more a make these words go with the month, the colors, and with something that’s celebrated this time of year. This time Mardi Gras fell in March, and it’s where I got the inspiration for my prompts, and this is how I got here.

Visit the PICS Page to get your inspiration. Its updated monthly.

The stencils and alcohol sprays can be found in my shop.

If you’d like to see how I made these, click here.

March Blog Challenge w/Artsy Solutions

Hey Sweeties,

This month for Mrs. Sonya’s challenge, I decided to make a shadow box clock.

This is a scrap project. Made from paper, I molded it into a pan and an oatmeal container. The flowers are made from Tim Holtz’s Tattered Florals dies (the large and the minis). I decoupaged with napkins she sent me in happy mail and added some gems off camera.

This may be a future tutorial on my Patreon we’ll see.

If you’d like to see the video, click here. There is also a second part to this project. This will be posted on March 29th.

Visit Mrs. Sonya here on WordPress at Multimedia Crafts Digital and YouTube.

March Index Card Art w/Livie’s Lovelies

Hey Sweeties,

This month, I took the index card art to a different level. I made flat cards for the first two months, and this time around, I didn’t want to do so.

I tried to stick with a bit of a grungy spring theme. Flowers, pinks, blues, yellows, and a few other colors.

At first, I didn’t like how it turned out. I got up, cleaned up, and walked away. I came back to add my finishing touches. Some gold…. I feel all my mixed media projects need gold or something related to it….well not my art journal pages.

I also recorded this in a different way. I decided to get a canvas blanket, roll it out, put my yoga mat under it, and created. This video is gonna be a bit of an odd one. I got up so many times. It’s easier to be at my desk creating versus being 3 feet away and unprepared. 🤣

Make sure yall check out what Mrs. Pham has going on in her shop and on her YouTube channel this month.

Box Flap Mixed Media

Hey Sweeties,

After 2 weeks of training, I’m off until after Christmas. Today is just my first day in and I’m already on a creative cloud. I decided to pull out a random hand full of box flaps that I cut off the main part of food packaging and create.

I used stencils from P.M. Artist Studio. A pair of Mixed Media Queens I’ve been following for about a year or so. One of my most favorite things they make are gelli printed, stenciled, ATC’s. To me, it’s like a decorated cookie.

With my scraps, stencils, paints, alcohol sprays, texture paste, and gelli plate, I created these babies.

Two layers of gelli plate paint and brushed with alcohol sprays
Finished with some inked edges, outlined, and dabbed with gold paint.

The tiny one at the top is my FAVORITE one. It may be an inch and a half by three quarters of an inch.

I really enjoyed making these and I may get out some more scraps to continue.
