Memories by Julia Patrikeeva

Hello, friends! Julia Patrikeeva is with you.

I am glad to be a part of this team and create for you.

As a first project, I decided to create a canvas.

At first glance, it is gloomy, but it conceals the memory of the past and something dear. Let our memory keep valuable things as long as possible.

I'll tell you a little about the creation process.

I fix Romantica tissue paper on the canvas with soft matte gel. I complicate the background with a stencil, texture paste and paints. I use paint

metallic Dark Velvet and Art Alchemy violet-green. I set the violet tone on the plaster decoration and inscription, and the green color on a dark background. It magically shimmers.

A photo from a vintage photo booth finds its place, and I start composing. The chipboard and gears are first covered with metal paint, then with wax.

I finish the work with glitter and splashes.

I hope my canvas will inspire you!

See you soon!

Optimistic art journal page by Asia Szczurowska

Hello, everyone😊

This is my first post as DT member, so, I’d like to tell you that I’m really glad to be here😊. I hope that my projects will inspired you.

As my first project I created an art journal page. I’m choosing this form when I’d like to say something important for me. With this page I’d like to tell you how happy I was when I received a message that I’m a part od MMP DT. Remember dreams can came true 😊

I used impasto paints to create the background, and some other stuff. If you are interesting how this page was created, please watch this video tutorial.

October 2021 challenge

Hello friends,

This month challenge is focused on warm colours, forest treasures, leaves, rain, fogs and all the beauty that comes with October.

Our fabulous design team created projects inspired by our moodboard:

When I saw this moodboard I thought - my colors. But, like it can be with my topic/colors, I had a problem to thought how I should start, which topic, form I should used? I had to many thoughts in my head.

I decided to use 7 Dots Studio paper collection. When I cut papers into ATC's size the idea of project came.

I used stencil and stamp to made background more interesting. I used waxes to color the chipboard and metal elements. On all ATCs you can see little bottles. I colored them with liquid acrylics.

Hello, everyone! I adore our challenges for their attractive, beautiful composition of colors, perfectly matched photos and a huge amount of inspirational ideas). I've chosen one color from our inspiration board and decided to create the minimal art object.

For those who know me, you know that its colors totally match it. How to miss out. I was inspired by colors to make my cover of my art journal

I just love the colors in this month's challenge! I knew Finn's Impasto Paints would be perfect for this color combo, so I picked a few that matched and went to work altering this brush. Next I layered in a mix of flowers and fussy cut flowers. This brush came together quickly and I just love the mix of pink & purple, I hope you do too!
