Season's Greetings...

Christmas is closing in and it is 

our last challenge of the year at Creative Artiste Mixed Media

so  a bit of Christmas MM is called for.

After a few attempts I found this photo taken

on my living room floor showed up the best lol 

It started with - 

die cutting frames, tags, corner pieces

and heat embossing some grunge in gold.

Then some painstakingly piece-ing together

Tim's Floral Brushstroke with two tones of metallic paper

and a touch of vellum leaves. Then lots of gold splatters.

Arranging the layers and checking out where and

how much gold thread to add

and which pearls after final layering.

Adding close up of sentiment from an old Spellbinder die

with pearls either side.

and a few more close ups

and again the end result.

Head over to our Blog and check out how our 

Talented Guests Linda and Erika shared their talents with us this month

and of course how my Very Talented Creative Team Mates 

created and inspired you to share yours in our Gallery.

As with each year we take January off so

I will be back in February to have fun creating

 and get a little messy.

Thank you to my Team Mates and for 

your support through the disruptive year of my moving house.

Merry Christmas and

Happy New Year to you all.
