Moment in Time by Kristy Abela - September Mood Board Challenge

Welcome back to another mood board challenge. My personal favourite colours are coppers and teals when crafting... My collections dominates my shelves. 


This is the regular crew at my place, my sons and their best mates... can you pick who are mine and who's not???
Please forgive me for bending the rules... I used a Dragonfly! 
Check our some process shots below..


Some texture for the background


Some Lindy's sprays and a bit of dry brushing with White Gesso.


Highlighting the depth with a charcoal pencil. 


Lots of embossing with Lindy's of Scrap FX chipboards and a bit of a highlight with some Prima Waxes.


I used some rust pastes on some of the pieces as well to give it the rustic look. I finished off the patina with some blue waxes. 
Added some stones and some beads and a couple of metal charms from my stash.


My favourite part of the whole project is the way this dragonfly turned out... 
The way the wings took on the graduation of colour was perfection!
Thanks for looking Soul Sisters!




Mood Board Challenge Rules

Please use our mood board as inspiration to create an art journal page, a card or a scrapbook layout. Use the mood board however you want but you must add a butterfly on your project.

As these challenges are sponsored by Art and Soul Studio please make sure that you use at least one product that is available from the store.

There are 3 x $50 vouchers up for grabs!! One will be awarded for scrapbook layouts, one for cards and one for mixed media/art journaling.

You can enter an art journal page, a card and a layout but you cannot win all three.

You have until the 11:59pm on the 30th September to enter and then the design team will vote to determine the lucky winners.


Please note that the vouchers can only be won by residents of Australia but if you are from overseas and win the challenge you will be offered a guest design team spot.

NEW DESIGN TEAM MEMBER!!!!

Hi Soul Sisters,

We are beyond excited to reveal our newest design team member so without any further mystery posts - we won't keep you in suspense any longer.


Please welcome Leanne Jago to the team!




Here is a little about our new member!


Hello gorgeous people, I am Leanne, I live in a little country town in Queensland, not too far from Brisbane with my two children, Tarj and Ivy and my two dogs George and Boss. I am currently a full-time uni student, work part-time and single mum to those mostly pretty amazing children.

I love art, in all its forms, it is my therapy. Mixed media is my weapon of choice. I LOVE texture and experimenting with all mediums, usually getting hooked on a couple for a while until the next one takes over. I like to experiment and find ways I can make the most out of each and every product I have. I am a scrapbooker as well, all for random collection of things thrown onto a page without much thought (usually held down with staples), add in some mixed media and I am one happy camper.

I am truly honoured to be part of the Art and Soul Studio team. I love to find out what people want, so drop me a line and let me know something you want to see me try my hand at (oh I’m not particularly good at cards).

My pretty neglected blog is http://addictedtoclouds.blogspot.com/...

Live with respect and empathy 💜


and feast your eyes on a few pieces of Leanne's creative work!!
