Heike`s AugenBlick

 Hello my dear followers, I am back with another page in mixed media style for the company 13arts. This time with a page in brown and blue. At the moment I am in love with the beautiful blue shades of the product Color Glow. They are so rich and vibrant and the metailc shine is so delightfully I spend a lot of time to look to my new color combination . It is so wonderful together. I think that the Industrial Zone paper collection also go perfectly with femine scrapbook layouts. But decide for yourself. You shine... A little Q and A about my layout: My photo for this page is from pixabay a free photo site. Below you can see the amazing 3D effect which I created with a mixture of  multipurpose gel medium, micro glass beads and color glow. I added this mixture to a stencil  from the new Industrial Zone paper collection. My background paper choise is a sheet also from the Industrial Zone paper collection called Blueprint.

 Hello my dear followers, the summer is here and I really enjoy my garden. My lovely hubby and I have bought a big olive tree for our garden, also two orange trees and a  solar water fountain. We love the meditarian style on our terrace and with the sound of rippling water  it`s so relaxing. But anyway.. For my first single post in June I created such a rainbow colour mixed media page on the Magnolia Dream paper collection. CREATE... is my title.  A closer look to my page: on the photo below you can see the texture which I made with the stencil and gel medium. I really love to add the pretty rose flowers from 13arts.

 Hello everyone, and welcome to the new 13arts IG June challenge. Which comes with an amazing mood board in Industrial style. Perfect for the Industrial Zone paper collection from 13arts. I created an abstract looking scrapbook page. Fussy cutting elements, stencil images, color glow and black gesso complement each other excellently on this layout. A little pen work and my page was done. A closer look to my page. TIP of the day... If you mix color glow with liqued acrylic medium or gel medium the color glow powder will be waterproof and translucent. I added the mix with a silicon brush from 13arts to my page. Here is the mood board for your inspiration. I think you know by now that the challenge is only to find on the 13arts IG site. Please add the #13artsjun22 to your post. Tell us which product from 13arts you use on your project. Add the challenge mood board  to your post. And last but not least have fun.. Until then... xoxo
