Mixed Media Floral Folded Book Inspiration:  At a Pinner's Conference we created a floral folded book. I decided to take that and combine it with some super fun mixed media elements! 😊 . I hope this inspires you to create something fun! Description : I took the folded book folding art piece and added a textured background with Art Basics Soft Body Gel and a floral stencil. I then added lace and various Prima Marketing Redesign Mould pieces made from resin adhered with Heavy Body Gel. I then colored the covers using Art Alchemy Liquid Acrylics. Gold wax was used to highlight the three-dimensional elements. Paint splatter and threads were added to further decorate the book. The piece measures 8.5" x 7" x 6".   Products : Book (book folded art) Finnabair Art Basics Soft Body Gel Floral Stencil Prima Marketing Redesign Moulds – In The Garden Prima Marketing Redesign Moulds – Cherry Blossoms Finnabair Art Basics Heavy Body Gel Finnabair Art Basics Heavy White Ges

Inspiration: My wife Nanci created this Chinese box from a kit many years ago built with Chinese rice paper, mulberry paper, and chipboard. I decided to upgrade it a bit 😊 .  I hope this inspires you to create something fun! Description : I took the Chinese Box and added a 3D printed dragon panel that I painted the background black, the raised dragon art red and highlighted the details with gold wax. After mounting the 3D piece on the lid, I added red rice paper pieces and Chinese-inspired medallions on the sides. The piece measures 6.25" x 3.5" x 2.5".
