September Expanding Your Options - Keri

Hi everyone, it's time again for my monthly series, Expanding Your Options!

This month, I've layered products from all of my past Frog Dog kits to create a fun DIY suncatcher for my kitchen window.
The idea for the design came from this great Joann's tutorial by Mark Montano. Cool, right?
Here's how I created the suncatcher:








Here's how the finished product looks:


And here's a close-up of how awesome the crackle/alcohol ink combo looks, with the sun shining in through the window:


Love this look, and can't wait to experiment even more with crackle+alcohol ink on transparent surfaces!
Thanks so much for joining me.

Crackle Accents Fun with Keri

Hi to all my mixed media friends out there, it's Keri, and I'm thrilled to be sharing my first video tutorial for Frog Dog Studio with you, using the July kit.

Here's another look at the nature box I created, using the awesome little box + mini album included in the kit:


  


My favorite part about this project is the crackle-frames that I created on each side of the box, using the large hinge as a tracing guide.  Crackle medium is definitely a staple in my craft space, and I used it on each July project in different ways, such fun!

On to the video!  This month, I've created a step-by-step tutorial for the crackle-frames, as well as a look at my other projects using this great art medium from the July kit. 
Since this is my first video tutorial for Frog Dog Studio, I'd love to have your feedback after you've seen it...hope you enjoy:
