September Wrap-Up for Mixed Media Art

As September is drawing to a close, I wanted to remind you of the fun we have had at Mixed Media Arts this month.


Wendy Whipple shared her Altered Book Art Journal with us, showing her colourful layouts.

Creating stencils from photos was our topic for Mixed Media Art Technique sheet 06 - I had such fun putting this layout together. I hope you have had a chance to play with stencils you have cut from photos.

And we looked at tips and tricks for making LOTS of ATCs if you are heading off to a craft show or class. It is great to have small pieces of art to swap. It allows us to share our contact details and our work, both in one go.

I am also working on a piece of sample art to show what I can do with the ephemera kits we have for sale over at Etsy. If you haven't checked out the Mixed Media Art Etsy shop yet, come and have a look. This is the first lot of ephemera kits, which we had fun putting together and we will have more out soon, so you can stock up on ephemera before the pre-Christmas rush starts. Our aim is to provide kits at reasonable prices to make them as accessible to everyone as possible - and the price includes postage too!

Happy Creating everyone!
