How To: Lavender Rain Drop Mixed Media Canvas Art


Lavender Rain Drops, Mixed Media Art by Corrinne Quinn


This mixed media can be done anyway you want. 

- Use patterned paper instead of paint for the background.

- Use burlap or other fabric for the cloud. Scraps are perfect for this!

- Create seed bead strangs, hang buttons or found items.

The end result is only limited by your imagination!

{PIN}spirational Challenge #14: Inspirational Photo - Sailboat


This week at {PIN}spirational Challenges, we are inspired by a very fun photo of a sailboat scene. Isn't it adorable? Everything is made from fabric. The cloud is puffy & white because it's stuffing. This is such a creative photo. I enjoyed viewing all of those fabulous details.

Our sponsor at {PIN}spirational Challenges is Di's Digi Downloads. They are giving one lucky participant a $10 Store Voucher! What a wonderful prize :)


I created my own sailboat using fabric scraps & a dark blue piece of felt that I cut to shape. The cloud is also felt that I cut by hand. A bit of twine & cotton mesh completed this card for me.

Have you ever traveled the seas on a sailboat? I have not, but it's definitely something I know that I would enjoy . . . if I don't get sick.

I was on a very small boat in Hawaii & it was very choppy water. I got sick! Ug, ug, yuck, but at least I had a big ocean to throw my lunch into & not on my neighbors. I know that they were quite thankful for that!

Was that a little too much information? I apologize if it was :) Changing the subject, I'd love to have you share your own interpretation of the photo. Link it up at {PIN}spirational Challenges.
