How to Build a Mixed Media Piece When You Don’t Have a Plan

In today’s Mixed Media Monday, I’m creating a layered mixed media collage using decoupage paper, stencils, collage elements, metallic underpainting, mark making, and LOTS of creative pivoting. 😂 The fun part? I didn’t start with a plan. This project became a real-time reminder that creative confidence isn’t about always knowing exactly what you’re doing… it’s learning how to respond when things shift. In this mixed media tutorial, we’ll explore: • Layering decoupage paper • Using stencils in mixed media art • Collage composition • Mark making • Problem-solving during the creative process • How to build a mixed media piece intuitively If you’ve ever felt stuck creatively, afraid to “mess up,” or overwhelmed trying to make everything perfect… this video is for you. Sometimes the best parts happen after the original plan falls apart.
