Autumn wishes 22

Mona Pendleton | Tuesday, October 18, 2016 @ 9:57 AM | Finnabair , Mixed Media , PPP , Prima , Prima Product Pick , Tag

Hi there! Today I'm sharing an autumn themed project that I was inspired by the beautiful color palette for the October Prima's Product Pick challenge:

I created a mixed media style tag which features a variety of Prima products including: texture, pretty embellishments and lots of shimmery details:

I made the pumpkin using chipboard and steel bladed dies, assembled then applied Prima crackle texture paste. For a bit of shimmer, I applied Prima Metallique Gold Rush acrylic paint. I embellished with various Prima flowers, a resin owl and glittery gold leaves:

To create the background, I applied a coat of Prima white gesso once dry, I added texture using a Prima stencil and Prima texture paste. After that layer was dry, I adhered Prima pebbles and Prima Roman numeral embellishments. For color, I painted on Prima purple mica powder:

For the final step, I splashed on the following Prima products: white gesso, Metallique Pink Blush and Metallique Gold Rush acrylic paints:

I'm also joining along with the current Curtain Call Inspiration challenge where the theme is Glittery Gourds:

Hi there! Today I had a chance to join along with the beautiful September Prima Product Pick color challenge:

First up is a mixed media style greeting card that I created featuring a variety of Prima products including a stamped and embossed Prima butterfly, a variety of die cuts and flowers:

For the card sketch inspiration, I joined along with the Prima card sketch challenge:

Next up is a layout featuring a photo of sweet Meredith and Griffin that was taken several years ago:

I added lots of texture using a Prima stencil and texture paste. Once the paste was dry, I surrounded the photo with a lot of stamped butterflies and flowers:

Hi there! I hope you had a great weekend! Today I have a mixed media project to share featuring a lot of texture and dimension:

I'm playing along with the Mixed Media Place current challenge where we are being challenged to be inspired by a quote in their graphic shown below. I chose "Stay patient and trust your journey":

I'm also joining along with the current Creative Carte Blanche challenge where we are being challenged to draw inspiration from the music video "God Only Knows" featuring the Beach Boys. I was inspired by the actual title, "God Only Knows".

I created a canvas featuring a photo that Scott took of the beautiful Notre-Dame Cathedral while we were vacationing in Paris:

I added a lot of texture, dimension and interest to the canvas using a lot of Prima Finnabair products including modeling paste, antique silver crackle texture paste, Purple Mica Powder,, silver micro beads, black and white gesso:

I embellished with a variety of Finnabair metal trinkets including flowers, a heart, a clock face and bottle cap:

It's Day 25 of 30 in 30 therefore, I will be linking this painting there as well:

Many thanks for stopping by ~ I hope you have a great week!

Hi! I hope you are all having a great weekend! It's my turn to share a project on the Prima blog featuring products from Finnabair's new release. The product line is simply amazing! And what a selection of mixed-media items it offered. From shimmery Art Alchemy Acrylic Paints to Sculpture Medium, Rust Paste to alterable flowers and fabric...there's something for everyone!

I was inspired to create a shimmery textured tag featuring a variety of the new Finnabair art products. “I love all the rich color and depth that can be easily achieved using the Finnabair art products.”
