7 Dots Studio and Prima newest products



Hello,
Today blog post is devoted to new products, that you can find in store. They are all available under this link, but I would like to talk a little bit more about some of them.

Prima Marketing has an amazing product line - Relics and Artifacts. They are always white, so it is easy to add any color you wish. They are made of some kind of resin, that gives them great look and makes them ideal for mixed-media projects. You will find all of them here.




If you haven't tried  Finnabair media yet or if you prefer smaller tubes than bigger jars, you can now choose between single tubes with Modeling Paste, 3D Gloss Gel, Soft Gloss Gel, Heavy Black Gesso, White Heavy Gesso, Texture Paste White Sand and the whole set of 6 different media.



Last but not least I would like to mention two new collections from 7 Dots Studio - Cotton Candy Dreams and Writer's Block. In Mixed Media Place you will find full range of products - stencils, stamps, chipboard pieces, papers, paper pads 6x6, Collection Kits, die-cuts and stickers. The quality of these products is well known, so I don't need to convince you, how great it is to use 7 Dots for mixed-media projects. 



There are also many different new products - new colors of Prima Watercolors, New set of Prima Watercolor Pencils - Vintage Lover, interesting set of canvases: Prima Art Basics - Fabric Pack, water-Activated metallic accent pans - Prima Metallic Accents and more.

Visit our NEW PRODUCTS section to see all new items.
Have a great day!

Vintage gold by Tanya Palamarchuk


Hello everyone!
Tanya here.
I love mixed media with my whole soul!
I like to try different techniques and the ability to feel like a real artist.
For this blog post I made a circular panel for home decor.
Vintage gold looks fantastic!




 A lot of metal, colors and shine!

And black rose! It is very dramatic!

Have a great day!

October challenge


This month challenge is about you. About your expectations, your dreams and your ability to break the limitations. It is fully up to you what colour will you paint the sky...


Inspiration from our Design Team:


The quote was a perfect motivator to create something just for myself - something colorful and spontaneously done.






The base for my project was canvas. I have used metallic foil and watercolors from Prima. The all have beautiful colors, are highly pigmented and mix with each other perfectly.

For this challenge i decided to create my own, handmade mixed-media fiber mini album, to keep  my summer memories alive ... up to the mountains we went!! With my best friends and kids...



I covered my cardstock papers with a fine white fibre and added Soft Gloss gel. Then it was right moment for white heavy gesso and again clear crackle texture paste, to avoid absorbing colors into my fiber surface (everything from Finnabair!!). Here and there I misted the whole thing with green and pink colors, stamped and glued my chipboard pieces, Prima flowers, gems, On top of it I have added 7 Dots flair and stickers etc and finally my favourite glitter!! What do you think about the result?

My LO about space and our place in it.
Be free and be happy! You have your star that shines only for you! :)

Creating this project was a pure pleasure to me. I really love colors and mixed-media techniques. Finnabair products are absolutely excellent and their quality is amazing. As usually I created many different layers and did some splatters too. I love using flowers and magnificent Lindy's Stamp Gang Sprays.






Enjoy the video I have created for you: 


Stay creative :)

Paint the sky, make it yours - these words inspired me to create a layout filled with the emotions from my life. Lately I have had a big change and most of things surrounded me have changed. It was really difficult change but I always hope for the best...
