July dare and Monday Magazine Inspiration

Tracy's July Dare is to show how Mixed Media Mondays has moved/influenced you. My question is how has it not?? A few years ago, I learned about mixed media canvases. I gave it a try and found I enjoyed it even though my efforts were not stellar. I kept experimenting and then I found Tracy and became a member of our little:) group. I have learned so many new things and am encouraged to keep trying and playing.

I also used Paper's Crafter's Corners Monday magazine inspiration for this.

My leaves are made from tiny squares of book text. I used one of my Gelli Plate papers for the background!

This is a mix of products including water colors, acrylic paints, black pen, stencils, a stamp, etc.

Thank you to Tracy and Steph for inspiring me!!
