My favorite - Mixed Media Place


Hi there folks! Today I'm sharing this project also over at Mixed Media Place's blog. If you wish to find lots of mixed media inspiration, I recommend you take a look if you haven't already! Here's a link for you, click click!

But back to my page. I've been thinking about doing a neutral page for some time now. I usually love to use colors, but that leaves me having a lot of neutral papers and embellishments left in my stash. So I wanted to challenge myself and create something colorless. Or anything too bright at least. 


Luckily, I happened to have a great photo with a very neutral color scheme and it inspired me to use a lot of black in the page. The picture is of my favorite jacket which I bought last spring. Ever since I brought it home with me, it's been almost the only jacket I use so it deserved a page of its own. I also happened to have the best embellishments for the page in my stash - the little jeans buttons from Prima. They fitted the theme just perfectly!

I started again with gesso, but then used India ink, mists and Design Memory Craft pens to make the background. I also created a little video of the process - hope you'll enjoy it!


Thank you for stopping by today! Hopefully your day was good and so is tomorrow!
