Welcome to another week of mixed media fun! Even though it's winter in my area of the earth, we are getting a lot of drizzling rain so in honor of our unusual January weather here is our challenge.
Try adding a drizzle of some medium on your project!
Ideas:
Paint (inspired to be like Jackson Pollock?)
Hot Glue (from a glue gun) as a stencil (video below from The Frugal Crafter)
Hot Glue directly on project
Liquid Enamel Drizzled instead of Dots
PVC Glue (as a masking medium)
Glossy accents
What mixed media products do you have that could be drizzled onto your project? I can't wait to see what you come up with!
Remember to add "MIX260" as a keyword so you will show up in the challenge gallery!

My first stencil piece is a bit bright and busy, I'm still thinking how to use it. So then I did a very simple one, so as to use up an image I coloured in bed yesterday.
Oh this was really fun Janelle! I went with the hot glue stencils...good thing I had some glue sticks left over from a Christmas project...here's my card..

Ooohhhh I'm so excited after watching your video. Love, love those trees...the hearts, the circles. I also love texture... squirting and randomly trying things out LOL. I bought a hot glue gun last year and haven't even given it a go yet and can't wait to play in my journal.
It's also given me an idea for when our little poppets come to play and do craft...I think they will love this. Thank you for this challenge and I'm definitely going to try it. Happy day

Positively my last one... MIX260 Underwater Bubbles
I've got a better effect with the water on hot UTEE in the past, but am thinking maybe when the UTEE is on glass, it stays hot longer.
Adding a close-up here which does show the pitting, you don't really see it in the gallery upload.
Thanks for such a fun and inspiring challenge.

I think I'm going to have to try it out soon!

Thanks Jayne! I can't take credit for the video though, it's from Lindsay Weirich aka The Frugal Crafter. I thought I had put that in the bullet list right above it but it had been truncated in my editing or inserting around the video. It's been updated so the credit goes to her now. ;)
