We’re back with a journal page share in our mini rectangle journal. We’ve used Lindy’s Magical Shakers- Guten Tag Teal, Polka Purple and Lederhosen Laurel; Fantasy Dies- 501 & 707, AB Studio Stencil and Stamps and Scrapclub Spb stamp.
We were inspired by:
More Than Words February Main Challenge– Used the word always to go with the phrase ‘live in the moment’ and ‘remember the now’. This is a reminder for us and everyone.
Today we’ve made our own organic dream catcher. We’ve used a tree bark as our base and made this dream catcher earthy. We’ve used Dusty Attic Chipboard, 49 & market Flowers and Ranger Embossing Powders.
We’ve always wanted to alter a paintbrush and we finally did it. Mixed Media gives one the freedom to pick any object and transform it into something new, and this paint brush sure fits this category.
We have the new Mood Board challenge on the Crafts Dreamy Blog. February’s Mood Board is inspired by Valentine’s day and love.
The theme is anything goes, you can make a card, tag, ATC, scrapbook layout, pocket letter, mixed media or collage piece etc the possibilities are endless! The challenge is open to everyone in the UK and internationally.

We all have wings, it’s just that we need to dare to fly. In life, it’s always easy to succumb to excuses and pass on the blame, because anything and everything takes courage and belief. The belief in your own self and self-love comes first on this journey.

It’s always good to take up new challenges and join new teams. It’s a way of not only showcasing your skills but also learning and growing. It’s an exchange of skills, talents, ideas and much more and that adds value to lives.
Fantasy Dies is having a DT Call. They are recruiting people for two teams- one for the dies (knives) and another for the chipboards.
We areSunila & Aditi (mother & daughter, aka Dots to Lines) and we live in Bangalore, India. We have been mixed media artists and scrapbookers professionally for about 4 years. We are into paper-crafting, Mixed Media Layouts, Art Journaling, Albums making, Altered Art and Scrapbooking. Our style of art and craft is a fusion of techniques and use of vibrant colours. We aim to spread joy. Every creation of ours, speaks a story and we enjoy sharing this with people. We keep learning and try to incorporate variety in our creations. We keep ourselves updated and upgrade our skills timely.
We would like to apply for the Dies (Knives team), as much as we love chipboards. We are huge fans of Fantasy Dies. To work with either would be a bonus, so we are open to the latter too. We would love to be a part of the Team, to showcase creative ways of using Fantasy Dies/Chipboards. We have a great standing and viewership as artists/crafters in the Indian Market, and we would be able to contribute to the growth of the brand, reaching a newer market like India. We have many interested crafters/artists who love using dies and chipboards in their creations, and with us showcasing the product, it would sure help the brand enter this vast art world in India. With our versatility, we’d love to showcase them across projects- journals, cards, layouts, altered projects, etc. Also, it would be a great opportunity for us to work with a team of mixed artists, share, and learn together. We’re punctual and hence timely project submission is a plus! We are into blogging and have experience being Design Team Members. We are active on social media platforms. We regularly also participate in various blog challenges. Documenting memories, especially through mixed media art and scrapbooking makes us happy.
Along with an International Artist Nuneka, Aditi has an Instagram Challenge for 2019 by the name of Nomadic Soul Diaries. Through this, we aim to encourage people to express their creativity. We have 50 international designers and various brands associated with us for this. And the response so far has been magnificent.
We have also been a part of various Blog Hops and YouTube Hops with International Artists. We have a few upcoming events as well. We enjoy video tutorials and have an active YouTube channel.
We are also teaching at Art Walk Alchemy, a class each, this year. Here’s a link- https://www.mysticspringstudios.com/art-walk-alchemy/. Apart from this, we do take workshops, and this year we are starting project-based workshops.
