Domino Mini Journals Mixed Media

Hey guys. Today we are launching our brand new Mixed Media Design Team! Our first featured Design Team member, Lynne Morgado of Mockingbird and Main, is with us this week. She shares not one but two delightful Domino Mini Journals with you! Each week we will highlight another Mixed Media project, created by one of the Designers on our team. Each designer was given the task of using images from our Premium Membership Site to provide inspiration for your own projects. There will be a blog post each week (starting with this one) showing the photos of their finished artwork. Additionally, they will create Show and Tell Videos of their own projects as well. Please scroll down to the end of this post to see her video. Be prepared to be inspired! I will now allow Lynne to tell you all about her art in her own words…

Mixed Media

Hello everyone. I am so happy to be here again with a brand new mixed media project for The Graphics Fairy. This time I have created two mini journals using vintage wooden dominoes. I used two of the awesome collage sheets printable designed especially for dominoes that are available on The Graphics Fairy Premium Membership Site,

The Travel & Adventure Mini Journal

The first mini journal has a travel and adventure theme. I fell in love with the beautiful images from the Map Domino Collage Sheet Printable found in the splendid European Maps Bundle.

Although the book is small, I did leave some blank tea dyed journaling pages for the owner to record their thoughts on. I think you could even squeeze in a little sketch on a page if you like.

This journal is perfect to tuck into your bag and carry with you for some on the go journaling. I also added various images from the collage sheet throughout the pages for some beauty and travel inspiration.

The Steampunk Mini Journal

The second Mini Domino Journal has a Steampunk theme, which is one of my favorites. I used the Steampunk Domino Collage Printable from the way cool Steampunk Images Kit available on the Premium Membership Site.

This journal also has tea dyed mixed media paper, but with accordion fold out style pages; happily there is still some room to journal!

This style of mini journal could easily be turned into a pendant as well. What a statement piece that would make.

I hope you enjoy this fun and easy project. The domino collage images are very versatile. Let your imagination go and use them to create your own little mini pieces of art.

Oh my gosh Lynne, these are just so darn cute! What a fabulous and inventive way to use the domino pendant tiles. I am going to give this a try…now to find real dominos.
