Mixed Media Monday - Not what I was seeing in my head, haha!

Gorgeous faux leather! That other one may not be as bad as you think. Come back to it a little later. it may start really growing on you. Especially if you’re going to be layering stuff over it. It definitely has a grunge feel, and those colors are truly Halloween. 👻 But like you said, it’s gorgeous and can always be used for something! Hugs ❤️🤗

Thank you Tamara! Adding that Satin medium to that faux leather really took it over the top! I agree about the paper I prepped, it might grow on me. Thanks for watching and commenting, I really appreciate it.🧡

Wonderful paper for the cover. I love the look of leather. Vintage and antique! Thanks for sharing! I love how our craft community inspires each other. Have a wonderful day, my friend!🌻💛

[@TammyVanAntwerpArt]

Thank you Janet! Gathering inspiration from this community is so important to me! You have a great day too!🧡

[@Freespiritarts]

That leather is fantastic! Great job! Can’t wait to see what you do with the new one!

[@TammyVanAntwerpArt]

Thank you! I'm curious what I'm going to do with the new one too, haha!

[@angelathoma-dogwoodpaperarts]

I know this isn't what you envisioned, but the paper turned out great! Paints and inks are so much fun. Maybe I should be doing a mixed media cover too, but I am leaning toward fabric.❤❤❤

[@TammyVanAntwerpArt]

Thank you Angela, it did turn out pretty good! I haven't looked at it since it dried. Tomorrow my eyes will be fresh and I might figure something out!

[@thelmahall2593]

ty and its good to know about stencils and paint i never thought about dabbing the excess off. i usually work with inks you never know that itll turn out different when it is dry :)

[@TammyVanAntwerpArt]

Thank you Thelma, I haven't looked at it since it dried, I might end up liking it for a cover!

[@rhodaburks4970]

The important part is that you tried! Those faux leather pieces are tricky. You can always use it as a base layer.

[@TammyVanAntwerpArt]

Thank you Rhonda, that's what I was thinking!

💜🎶 Good evening Tammy,,, Great paper .. perfect for a cover 💜🎶🇨🇦

[@TammyVanAntwerpArt]

Thank you Caroline! Covers are the hardest thing about junk journaling for me so I'm happy when I have an idea that comes together!

[@ManDaLeeCards]

I still like it Tammy. Maybe tone it down with some coffee stained modge podge. I use that alot to darken the colors a bit! Don’t give up on it yet! ❤

[@TammyVanAntwerpArt]

Thank you Dalia! I still haven't done anything with it yet!

[@Freespiritarts]

Love that satin finish!!

[@TammyVanAntwerpArt]

Me too, it really took that faux leather to the next level!

[@robinpowell2712]

I love it 😀 🎉❤

[@TammyVanAntwerpArt]

Thank you Robin!

[@Freespiritarts]

Let it dry! Then come back to it.

[@TammyVanAntwerpArt]

I will come back to it. I was/am super tired today so that might be part of it. Tomorrow is a new day with fresh eyes! I LOVE what's happening with your cover, it's going to be gorgeous!
