November 2nd DT Reveal

                                                   Hello Mixed Media Academy Fans...

Today we are back with some more inspirations from our Design Team for November challenge. This is our Mood board



Make a project around our mood board and 
 follow all rules mentioned below and win some fabulous sponsor prizes.


Teal, blue and kind of purple with peacock catched my eyes. I have created art journal page for November month.Peacocks are never fly high like other birds. But it dance beautiful. Everyone is special as their own.Like everyone has dreams,but hesitate to try it.
The inspiration-
"Your wings already exists.All you have to do is flying". Flying to achieve our goals.may be improving something that already exists within us or May be achieving happiness. Or achieve inner peace.



I like violet colors and feathers, so when I saw this mood board I thought - this is create for me and it'll be easy project. This fairy represent talent. She is beautiful and free. She is almost shining. Behind her back I hid a bird in a cage. Remember when you have bad days, bad mood,
you feel trapped, you can sit down and relax during crafting. Everything is better when your soul shine.
This canvas was a birthday present for my crafty friend 




Even when the weather is a little bit dark and it's getting colder and colder outside it is still great to have fun. Now we have longer nights to create. So my mood is excited and I took inspiration from our moodboard colours to create this piece.





Hello creative souls!
This month we are in a lilac-blue mood! Our moodboard with these bright feathers made me associate with a bright carnival. I have created my canvas "Carnival Night" for your inspiration. Lush bright dresses, feathers, funny music, masks, laughter and fun! Let this mood whirl you in the cheerful dance of my carnival night!
Join our challenge!



Today my mood is very festive as it's my Birthday. The month of November is very special to me, my little munchkin is also November month born and my brother too. One more reason to be joyful is Diwali festival. All we know that many are miles apart from their loved ones this year just like me because of Covid_19. I wanted to send my lovely wishes to everyone, so I made these colourful mixed media tea light candle holders. I have recycled plastic lids into these gorgeous festive decorations.
"May this auspicious occasion light up your life with happiness, joy and peace"
HAPPY DIWALI.... 



Do you feel inspired!

November Challenge

   Hello and welcome to the November challenge at Mixed Media Academy. 

This has been a tough year and as we are approaching the end of 2020, we wish normalcy to return. As we have already suffered a lot, let's now spend sometime thinking about ourselves. So here's our challenge "MY MOOD" 

Share with us, what's your Mood lately... do you think or pay attention to yourself... Use at least 3 colors from the palette and participate in our challenge 


Create a project around our mood board and follow all rules mentioned below to win 
any of the sponsored prizes.



                                          Here's some inspirations from our Design Team

Take control of your life. Your future is in your hands. Don't allow others to control the direction of your life. You have to get to a point where your mood doesn't shift based on the insignificant actions of someone else. Don't allow your emotions to overpower your intelligence. It knows what to do. So master calmness in every situation and take control of your life. A recent lesson learnt from another episode in my life





My Mood this month is Princessy as I'm spending some time with my parents after a long long time and like every girl I'm the princess of my loving parents.Also this is the Festive season in India which unfortunately we have to celebrate at home... But we will have loads of fun as we are together and that's most important



Feathers and mood brings these words in my mind...Drama Queen!!!  My mood keeps on changing and, since, face is the most expressive part of our body, it mirrors my mood.  But either I am feeling festive or I am feeing broken and down, I always keep the crown on my head, it may be crooked sometimes but it always stays there! 
 I made a Venetian mask for the Carnival mood this festive season. It shows my many moods, festive, happy, positive, broken, sad, down or cracked. We can't go out and celebrate like last year this festive season but to enjoy you do not need to go out, you can celebrate at home with family and boost your mood!





Go with flow.feathers are so light weighted that they go with any flow. So as krishna's flute. When krishna flute begins all go with its flows. So we are going right know with flow of covid. Sometimes we cant do anything and just have to go with flow. My take on this moodboard



Hello, friends! Today I'd like to shaw my project, inspired by November moodboard. I was thinking about mystery and beauty of violet palette, tried to create an elegant and graceful project.



Hello folks,
November moodboard is so amazing. Full of my favourite colours. These days i love teal and purple colours. I have created a canvas with Prima's stamp image and coloured it with watercolour colours.
Just want to spread postive thought to all the women who are surrounding me, " Shine Wherever You Go! "


Do you feel inspired!
