Gelli Plate Prints and Planner Dividers

Hello everyone! Remember those Gelli prints I showed you a few weeks back? Well...I have a project to show you today that uses those fun prints and turns them into something many of us use every day.

Mixed Media Art Journal with Mandy Russell


I love using little bits and baubles in my art and I truly feel quite fortunate for how abundant they are in this world.

Tiny buttons, gems, and plastic animals are a few of my faves which I've incorporated here in this sweet little stitched collage. There is no glue used here to hold things in place, just a needle and thread. Hmmmm, is it still a collage if there is no glue? Whatever it is, it's easy! And adorable!
