Mixed Media Block Using Mixed Media Art Mediums.
7:08:00 AMWhen Prima launched the new Finnabair mixed media art mediums I think the entire mixed media and scrapbooking community were relieved to be honest! Here was something new and exciting and accessible to everyone – those who want to dabble in more adventurous waters or those who want to just play around with a bit more texture.
For me it is a bit of both – I want to be able to create mixed media
pieces to experiment and play, but also to use it on my layouts, cards
and Project Life cards. So today I created a mixed media block, working
directly onto a piece of wood using my favourite art mediums from Prima
and some additional embellishments.
How I created the mixed media base of my block
STEP 1: I started off my applying a layer of
Texture Paste White Sand, combined with some Modelling Paste Opaque
white and some Gold Crackle texture Paste. I applied all 3 mediums using
the same palette knife covering sections at a time and then overlapping
them all to ensure full coverage of my wooden block. 
STEP 3: I used the Tea Stain Color Bloom mist to add colour to my chipboard clock and left it to dry.

TIP: Once the mists are dry, the surface feels a bit tacky, so I added a light spray of fixative to set everything and seal it in.
To finish off my block I added some Prima flowers and embellishments.
To adhere everything to my block I used my Tombow Mono Multi – and it
worked perfectly.
A fun project completed in a few hours – with loads of texture and
interest. I really loved working with these high quality products –
perfect in every way.
