Lisa made a tiny sweet mixed media canvas. She used a Winsor Newton 5×7 Artist Canvas that she covered with Prima Marketing Flutter Finnabair Tissue Paper. Then she stamped some details with Kaisercraft Scrap Studio Clear Stamp and used Poppy Stamps Stiched Fluttering Butterflies Craft Die to create some tiny little butterflies. Finally she added some flowers and feathers from Prima Marketing Dark Romance Midnight Garden Flowers.”

Andrea made three tiny tags using Dina Wakley’s Collage Collective.  She added her own flair and lots of layers of patterned paper such as Sunny Studio’s Polka Dot Parade and Altenew’s Essential Black and White and Verdant Walk packs.

Anna-Karin made a springtime altered tin, with lots of tiny details, and a fairy-tale about a tiny boy out on adventures. The bunny was die cut with Tim Holtz Sizzix Springtime Side-order set, and the bugs come from Tim’s Entomology set.

Barbara has created a motivational box using the smallest among Vignette Boxes by Idea-ology. This box matches perfectly with Tim Holtz Sizzix Faceted Heart Die. To decorate it she used for the background Tim Holtz Sizzix Mechanics 3D and Tim Holtz Sizzix Gearhead Die on all on the edges.

Emma created a special keepsake for her Mom and used a Tim Holtz trinket tin to create her miniature project. She added Ranger Ink Crackle Paste to the outside of the tin to create a vintage feel and embellished the inside with Bouquet Findings, alcohol inked Baubles, a mini pocket watch and a PhotoBooth image that sits inside a Thimble Pot Holder

Kath used a Mini Etcetera Tag with Etcetera Scallop Trims to create a Fairy Woodland scene using Tim Holtz Idea-ology Lace Baseboard Frame, Transparent Wings, Baseboard Dolls, Sizzix Wildflower Stems 2 Thinlits  and added miniature Shrink Plastic Sizzix Large Stem die-cuts and Idea-ology Bauble Findings

Macarena placed on her card a whole tiny bugs family using Tim Holtz Entomology stamps and dies. For the upper panel she used Tim Holtz Dapper stamp and for the sentiment Simon Says Stamp Lotus Flowers stamp. 

Fascinated by tiny houses, Maura headed to her art journal to create a miniature world, using teamie Andrea Ockey Parr’s Tiny House stamp set from Inky Antics, along with her Roller Bird set, and Paper Artsy’s Eclectica3 Scrapcosy set. 

Meihsia was inspired to create mini canvases with some cute farm animals using Tim Holtz Cling Rubber Stamp 2019 Funny Farm and and Shifter Mini Stencil Set 40.

Sandra created a jungle card using the Ornate Lace stencil that has so many tiny details and used it with Texture Paste, to give it more of an jungle look she used Distress Inks in Lucky Clover, Mowed Lawn and Pine Needles, to create more depth in the colors, she used Nuvo Shimmer Powder and Infusions Emerald Isle. But the real tiny things are the bugs of the Entomology stamp and die set.

Zoey used a bunch of distress paint and Distress Crackle paint. She also made this cup out of Prima Marketing Clay. She used Tim Holtz Designer Tape to decorate the waves and the teeny boat.

So now it’s YOUR turn to get out your inks, paints and all things arty and start creating! We are looking forward to seeing what you make!
