Mixed Media Art Journal School/Study Encourage

Meihsia Liu Simply Paper Crafts Mixed Media Art Journal Fearless Typewriter School Simon Says Stamp Tim Holtz

Hello, my lovely crafty friends, I hope you all enjoyed your weekend and welcome back for the new challenge. This week at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge, our theme is "School/ Study Related".

We also have a special challenge for children between the ages of 2 and 16! CLICK HERE or on the logo to go directly to the challenge page.


I was inspired to create an art journal page with motivational quotes for my daughter, a high school freshman. I stamped the typewriter image using Tim Holtz Type Chart Rubber Stamp and added sentiments with Way with Words rubber stamp.

I started this project with spraying Tim Holtz Distress Spray Paints on the journal page using different colors over three Layering Stencils. The sentiment was stamped using Tim Holtz Rubber Stamp and Simon Says Black Ink Pad on another piece of white paper, torn and pasted on the journal page.

The gear embellishments were die cut and colored with Distress Paint, then pasted on the page. I stenciled the sun and clouds with Distress Paint over Simon Says Stencil Make a Scene Stencil. I traced the outline of the sun and clouds with a black pen.

The typewriter was stamped, colored with Kirarina Blue Glitter Pen, cut and pasted on this journal page. I added some more sentiments around the typewriter using Altenew Label Stamp set. 

I really love these motivational words and hope this journal page encourages Natalie to have a great high school life.

Mixed Media ATC Space Journey

Meihsia Liu Simply Paper Crafts ATC Mixed Media Rocket Planet Universe Simon Says Stamp 1
Hello, my lovely crafty friends, I am so happy you are here. It's so great to have my craft time back since both my kids are going back to school today. At Simon Says Stamp, we also have a special challenge for children between the ages of 2 and 16! CLICK HERE or on the logo to go directly to the challenge page.


For today's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge, we challenge you to create an ATC - Artist Trading Card. The only rule for ATC is the size must be 2.5" X 3.5".

I was inspired to create a mixed media ATC with Simon Says Stamp Space Journey Wafer Die and textured background using Prima White Crackle Texture Paste.

This ATC was cut from a piece of watercolor paper. I love to use sturdy paper to create this kind of tiny piece. The background was covered with Prima texture paste then sprayed with Tim Holtz Distress Spray Paints.

I colored on another piece of watercolor paper using Distress Paints then die cut the space elements using Simon Says Stamp Space Journey Wafer Die. I drew the outline of these space elements using Faber-Castell Big Brush Pens, and pasted these die cuts on the ATC base using Tombow Mono Glue and Tombow Adhesive Tabs.

The sentiment was from Tim Holtz Chit Chat Stickers. I also distressed the edges of the ATC using Simon Says Stamp Ink pads and Art Daubers.
