Now and forever - Finnabair Creative Team

Hi,

my new inspiration for Finnabair Creative Team is a vintage picture, which can be a beautiful, family souvenir. I used delicate colors and only a few decorations. The photo plays a major role here, and the embellishments just exposed it beautifully.

Creating a background, I used a great new product - a tissue paper. The paper is thin, so remember that the background color will be visible through it. That's why before I glued it, I painted my base with white gesso. You can also slightly wrinkle the paper when it is still moist. Then you will get very interesting wrinkles and creases, which can be beautifully emphasized with inks or paints. Everything depends on you and on what effect you expect.

As decorations, I used metal and resin elements, covered with the gesso to take on the colors better. I reached for the new mica powders this time. The Serenity set worked very well with the Carte Postale tissue paper. Thanks to these magical powders, I added to my project a subtle and shiny color. To emphasize the details a little bit more, I used waxes - new beautiful color Blue Lagoon and an old one Bronze Age. Both - new colors and older ones - are still the same, great qualitatively and velvety waxes, with a beautiful fragrance.

I've made a video for you that I hope will inspire you to create your own project.

Memories - round canvas in pink

Hello friends,

this is my new project - a small mixed media canvas in pink.

I used Prima "Rossibelle" and "Love Clippings" collections to make this. And of course some Finnabair products - mica powders fof background, and waxes for final touch.

Imagine Your Life - mixed media banner with video tutorial for Finnnabair Creative Team

Hello friends in the New Year!

As many of you, I too have my terms, dreams and goals to achieve. But this time I'm going to go after what I want, instead of waiting. I think this is the perfect plan. Keep fingers crossed! 

For a good start, I made this mixed media banner for Finnabair Creative Team.

This is a second part of my bigger project, the first banner you can see here - Create Yourself.

 That is going to be my motivator, a driving force to action. Maybe you will feel inspired to create your own one, too.

I used a lot of Mechanicals metal embellishments, some pieces from Prima moulds and crystals. Even though my banner is not large, I wanted to create a feeling of rich texture and deep space.

I believe a little bit of Glliter is always a good idea. :)

Once I arranged my composition, I covered it all with Heavy White Gesso to achieve a mysterious, foggy effect. It also beautifully highlighted all the details and "softened" the glitter effect.

As for the color effects, I used Mica Powders that are such an amazing and versatile product! You can make your own pastes, paints and mists simply mixing in these magical powders - just imagine the possibilities… Or you can also simply sprinkle the surface with this shiny product and spray it with water. That's what I did here and I got some really beautiful color transitions.

I made a video tutorial especially for you so you can follow my creative process. Enjoy!
