Som mitt DT bidrag hos Creative Fingers #174., har jeg lagd en mixed media side i min art journal, noe som er en sjelden begivenhet! De gangene jeg lager noe i min art journal, er det som oftest pga. helt spesielle ting, designerark, malte motiver og pynt ~ ting jeg ikke får til å bruke ellers, og heller uansett vil beholde selv..
Har nok vært influert av halloween og det at jeg så på 'the Labyrinth' (for ørtende gang ~ elsker den!) når jeg så for meg temaet her...
Som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema, og velkommen skal du være :)
Forresten... om du ikke har sett den enda, så har jeg en flott bloggcandy her!
I think this theme came to me since it was Halloween and having watched 'the Labyrinth' for the umpteenth time.. absolutely LOVE that movie ♥
Made this mixed media art journal page as my DT creation for challenge #174. at Creative Fingers. I rarely make art journal pages, but when I do it is usually because I got a painted motif and/or papers that I don't want to part with, just wanting to keep them for my self ;)
This motif was a freebie I got in a newsletter email many months ago from Michelle Tracey, and when she was going to sponsor this challenge I knew I wanted to use the gorgeous 'Crow Totem' girl ♥
As always it is an 'Anything goes theme', and you are more than welcome to join with your creations :)
Did you see the blogcandy I have up now? Take a look and join in if you want a chance to win some crafty goodies 👍

I actually 'ruined' my first go at this image (as u may tell by the emoji!).. coloring black crows and black hair is never easy! Lost most of the lineart and messing up the background and loosing the pretty border.. but I'm happy with the end result now! Re-drawing up some of the lines and even gave her an arm tattoo :)
Those crows look scary, I wouldn't want them sitting on my head! thanks for sharing in our challenge at 2CraftyCritterCrazies. We hope you join us again soon, CarolG

ReplyDeleteJeg er altså så sjalu på dere som får til denne stilen her. Synes du er helt rå med fargene og hvordan du bruker både elegante elementer og litt råere, men de går allikevel som hånd i hanske..
