Mixed Media Artbook “Imagination” with Yulianna

Hello Gang! Yulianna Efremova here and I’m so excited to be with you this year as a Lindy’s Ambassador.  For this month’s project, I’m going to show you how to make a Mixed Media Artbook “Imagination” that I’ve colored with Starburst Sprays from Lindy’s.

The leaves were covered with a mixture of sprays, I’ve used Starbursts: Ponderosa Pines Olive, Screamin’ Banshee Black, Canna Lily Burnt Orange, Witch’s Potion Purple and Moon Shadow Mist: Buccaneer Bay Blue to create my ArtBook.

You could create a similar piece with your favorite colors.

I wanted to make it easy for you to make something like this yourself, so I’ve filmed a video so you can see just what to do to make this at home.

BASIC PROCESS

1. Draw large circles and then smaller circles inside on a piece of paper large enough to cover your journal pages
2. Cut out small circles and then cut out large circles with edges as shown in video, roll edges to create texture
3. Attach bandage
4. Cover with sprays
5. Darken edges of the paper with Dye Inks
6. Add printed images behind the empty circles so that the hole is covered and the image is revealed.
7. Stick all the paper into your ArtBook
8. Tint edges of rolled paper with dye inks
9. Attach waxed cord around the circles
10. Add glossy accents
11. Add Remnant Rubs Elements
12.  Done!
