Mid Month Inspiration Post & a New Team Member!

Welcome back for some mid-month inspiration for our 
January 2018 Challenge - Ring in the New.

We have some fabulous projects to spur you on in your own challenge entries. Remember, you have until January 31st at 11:55 p.m. EST to enter your own project to the gallery!

We also have a new Design Team member to introduce! We know that you will love her work and be inspired. We'd like to welcome Karen Bearse to our Mixed Media Monthly family!



"I am thrilled to be part of the Mix Media Monthly Team! My favorite thing is discovering new techniques by playing with multiple inky products & stretching them to see what they can do. As a technique junkie, my passion is teaching. I hope to inspire & bring you with me on my journey as I share my journal books, canvas, art tags & more."

Karen made a beautiful journal for our challenge this month:

Some of our other team members have projects to share too:
