Beyond the Borders: Helen's 3 Mixed Media Projects with Ephemeral Edges ๐Ÿ•Š️✨

If you’ve ever struggled with how to blend your collage papers into your backgrounds, Helen is here to show you how it’s done! ๐Ÿ™Œ Using papers from the Ephemeral Edges pack, she created three projects that prove art doesn't have to stay inside the lines. ๐Ÿ–Œ️๐ŸŒŒ

By layering these papers with STAMPlorations stencils and stickers, Helen has achieved a look that is both deeply textured and light as air. Let’s dive into her creative process.


The Textured Canvas Panel ๐Ÿ–ผ️๐ŸŽญ
This mixed media canvas is a playground of texture! Helen used the Ephemeral Edges paper as her soulful foundation, then built up the "drama" using the Crisscrossed and Happy Flowers stencils. ✖️ ๐ŸŒธ To finish it off, she used one of the sentiments from the Inspirational #4 clear stickers as a powerful focal point. The result? A high-impact piece of art that feels like a modern heirloom. ๐Ÿ’–✨

The "Double Delight" Card Set ๐Ÿ’Œ
Who says collage paper is just for big canvases? Helen created a duo of cards that show off the softer side of the Ephemeral Edges pack. By covering the front of the cards with the papers, adding scripty sentiments from the Happy Happy Clear Stickers, and finishing them off with ribbons, Helen created cards that feel celebratory, artistic, and totally unique. ๐ŸŽ‚๐ŸŽˆ It’s the perfect way to send a little "handmade happy" through the mail! ๐Ÿ“ฎ๐ŸŒˆ

Sacred Creativity: Bible Journaling ๐Ÿ“–๐Ÿ™
This might be my favorite use of the pack yet! Helen took the Ephemeral Edges paper into her journaling Bible, using the the paper to add beauty to the margins without obscuring the text. ๐Ÿ•Š️๐ŸŒฟ It adds a vintage, contemplative feel to the pages, making the act of journaling feel even more special and personal. ✨๐Ÿ™Œ
