Memories are special always and our moodboard colours this month are so amazing. My Mixed Media Canvas with a lot of texture and autumn colours.

Autumn butterfly. I will truly miss them. They show all of us how we can evolve into something stunning and maginificent.

Hello creative souls! Margarita Shkludova is here with you!
Autumn for me is a time of memories and nastalgia. This is the time when you can make yourself comfortable in an armchair, cover yourself with a warm blanket, drink hot tea and immerse yourself in memories.
I have prepared a vintage mood project for your inspiration. It has rough autumn foliage, damp rains and the smell of autumn. Vintage children as a symbol of memories of long gone school days.
Let autumn not drive you into longing, each season has its own charm and autumn is just a time of calm thoughts.
Join our wonderful challenge! 

Old memories are always meant to be cherished. I still remember when I was a kid, I was carefree and extremely happy. All the precious memories that I have in my heart makes me go back to that time again. For our September Challenge I made this tiny Mixed Media Notebook, where I can write my thoughts and stick my favourite pictures to cherished such lovely memories. I hope you will love it.

A moment lasts all of a second, but the memory lives on forever.

The best thing about the memories is making them, but when it's made with the loved one it's treasured for lifetime...
The mood board have rich color pallet which made me to link it with the wedding theme, hope you all will like & get inspired by my project.

Do you feel inspired!

September Challenge

 Hello and welcome to yet another exciting challenge at Mixed Media Academy.

This month it is all about the "memories". Create a mixed media project showing elements of autumn and reminiscing about old memories. Use at least 3 colours from our colour palette in your project.

Here is our lovely moodboard.

To win a prize you must make a project around our moodboard and follow all rules mentioned below.

Now over to our Design Team for some creative inspirations:

For September challenge I created an album. I think that there is no better things to store memories than photos and albums. I hope my family and I will take a lot of autumn photos this year. The fox on the cover is supposed to refer to our dogs, are you curious what breed they are? 

It's the little memories that will last a lifetime, it's mean creating memories is a priceless gift. Memories will last a lifetime things only a short period of time.

Memories are the treasures that we keep locked deep within the storehouse of our soul, to keep our heart warm when we are lonely, our memories are the only paradise from which we can never be expelled.

For as long as I can remember, fall has been my favorite time of year (and winter 2) ,😉.
I cannot get enough of fall. The colors, the holidays, the changes -- it's all so magical to me. Every year it's similar, but every year feels like I'm experiencing it for the first time. As I've been working for the past few months on living positively in the present moment, it makes a lot of sense to me to celebrate this present of mine -- the beautiful change in season -- and time to make some new memories .

Hello, friends! Today I'd like to share with you my dreamy autumn mood.. Summer is almost over and I will keep memories about it, about sunlight and sea, I will drink my hot tea and dream about my future trips and plans.

Sometimes you will never know the true value of the moment until it becomes a memory. Here's my mixed media inspiration for this month's mood board challenge. I have used all the colours from the mood board.

When you miss someone you love, every little thing reminds you of them. Sometimes it's a simple fragrance which brings forth the memories of you together, sometimes it's a song. Especially when you are toasting to good times, the memories of good times in the past with a loved one, brings a smile on your face and that's the time when the lyrics of Maroon 5's "Memories" hits home hard. This month's moodboard inspired me to make a layout which sort of visually represents this song which is very close to my heart!

Do you feel inspired!

August Challenge

Hello Crafty Souls...!!!

We are so happy to announce our August Mixed Media Challenge. This month our DT Priyanka is hosting the challenge with her beautiful "What's Your Raashi?" mood board and that means she'll be choosing the winner for the month. 
What's Your Raashi ? means what's your star/zodiac sign? There are 12 astrological signs, also known as signs of the Zodiac - in order, they are - Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. ...

You can choose yours or any of the Zodiac you like.

Or may be all of them.

What's your interpretation of Zodiac...???

Here's the Moodboard for you by our DT Priyanka ...

This is a beautiful and unique mood board and we hope you all will participate in this challenge.

Let's see what our DT created to Inspire you...

Hello everyone:) My Zodiac is Sagittarius. I can't find any paper or graphic with my sign, so I used my imagination and here it is... magic. Zodiac sign have something of mysticism, mystery, magic - that why I used small fairy. I used also metal arrows.

My inspiration for August moodboard 

According to me zodiac interpretation is 

"your Sun sign dictates your zodiac personality, while your Moon sign, the second most important influence represents your emotions, your inner mood. And the two together strongly influence your emotional mode of operation" so with this project i combined both of them name of project is THE STARS ABOVE US

 

Hello, creative friends! Margarita is here. For this amazing challenge Zodiac Signs I created something related to my Zodiac Sign. My sign is a virgo. And so I decided to make a round canvas in which embodied my vision of this sign. Tender, feminine and mysterious girl surrounded by stars and moons. And what is your zodiac sign? Join us in this incredible challenge!

My Moon sign is Virgo and in our tradition we gave name to the baby by their moon sign!! Virgo means young women so I portrait women with watercolor as my focal point. I also made some of zodiac sign with polymer clay and I used them as embellishment. My own art identification is water color, mixed media and Clay (as I am major ceramic student ) so I used all those techniques. I hope this project inspire you to create your own identity!!

Gemini is my zodiac sign. I create a canva with a cosmic background. I applied sand paste through the mask, then I used several paint colors to make space. I used also stars from resin casts. At the end I added the gemini symbol

Hello, 

my star sign is LEO ♌️..Here I have altered a cardboard to show a side of a LION.  I used a Lion face and added some stars and moon. I also added a Leo quote to make it more interesting 

Hope you guys like it :)

Hi! Sab here! This is my first project for a wonderful moodboard challenge! What's your zodiac sign? Mine is Libra! So I decided to use a Tatoo's photo of my sign.... and to create a magic atmosphere with black and blue, a canvas rich of embellishment, stars and light points. I used black gesso and covered it with a metallic blue. I used a lot of metallic, resin and wooden embellishment. I used also a big chipboard.

 And you? What's your sign and what's your interpretation?

This moodboard is one of my favourites among what we hosted this year so far. This is so unique...

My Moon Sign is Leo. Leo loves to be different always, so I added this Quote on my project. Also added an astronomical clock as my centrepiece here. Hope you like it...
