More Mixed Media - anything mixed media with optional black - a little or a lot
http://moremixedmediachallenge.blogspot.com/
I have used a star stencil to draw stars with a white gel pen onto black card. (I tried using white paint but made too much of a mess so started again and used the white gel pen)
Added star stickers.
Made a bokeh background on a piece of gloss card with distress stamp pads and white brilliance ink pad and stamped Christmas stamps with black brilliance ink. Layered onto black card.
Layered all onto dark blue card.
I hope you will go over and see the lovely work by the design team and join in the challenge.
I would like to add my card to the following:

About Me
Welcome to my blog
I started this blog in April 2012 so I could join Challenges. I am now on some design teams. I hope you like my cards. I started stamping in 1995 but my cards are still mostly cute.
Thank you to those who have joined as followers and to those who comment.
Unfortunately because of spammers I have had to put moderation on the comments. I will approve them as soon as possible, this also means I don't miss any.
I don't always get a chance to reply to all comments but I read them all when I approve them and I really appreciate you taking the time to give your comment.
The lovely banner was made especially for me by Amanda at Faery Ink Art & Design when I won her first blog challenge.
2025 - Now due to my sore hands and bad eyes I make mostly digital cards and scrapbook pages.

Find inspiration in the song or rhyme:
Over the River and Through the Woods
Over
the river and through the woods,
To grandmother's house we go;
The horse knows the way to carry the sleigh,
Through (the) white and drifted snow!
To grandmother's house we go;
The horse knows the way to carry the sleigh,
Through (the) white and drifted snow!
Over
the river and through the woods,
Oh, how the wind does blow!
It stings the toes and bites the nose,
As over the ground we go.
Oh, how the wind does blow!
It stings the toes and bites the nose,
As over the ground we go.
Over
the river and through the woods,
To have a first-rate play;
Oh, hear the bells ring, "Ting-a-ling-ling!"
Hurrah for Thanksgiving Day!
To have a first-rate play;
Oh, hear the bells ring, "Ting-a-ling-ling!"
Hurrah for Thanksgiving Day!
Over
the river and through the woods,
Trot fast, my dapple gray!
Spring over the ground,
Like a hunting hound!
For this is Thanksgiving Day.
Trot fast, my dapple gray!
Spring over the ground,
Like a hunting hound!
For this is Thanksgiving Day.
Over
the river and through the woods,
And straight through the barnyard gate.
We seem to go extremely slow
It is so hard to wait!
And straight through the barnyard gate.
We seem to go extremely slow
It is so hard to wait!
Over
the river and through the woods,
Now Grandmother's cap I
spy!
Hurrah for the fun! Is the
pudding done?
Hurrah for the pumpkin
pie!
