Dylusions Flower Canvas by Zinia

Posted on by Shauna Todd

It is a bright winter day and it is such a pleasure to share Zinia’s sunny flowers, in anticipation of Spring, using Dylusions Paints.  For those of you that may be new, Zinia Amoiridou of Abstract Inspirations is a very talented and super creative artist that loves art journaling or canvas creation.  We feel so privileged to be able to share her beautiful and fun exploits.  

This canvas is created with minimal supplies, but lots imagination! Try your hand at it, or scale it down and make a scrapbook page or even a card using these techniques.

If you want to learn more about Zinia, then scroll down and read her bio.  Before you do, watch her latest video below.  It is so vibrant and cheery, it makes you want to smile all day through!

Peace & Joy Wall Hanging

Posted on by Zinia Amoiridou

Hi there,

This is Zinia here with you today.  As the holidays approach I thought it would be fun to share with you a slightly Christmas themed project that can also work all year round.

Instead of working in my art journal, I decided to use a flat canvas board. This way I can hang it on the wall as decoration or gift it to someone for the holidays.

Paris Love Art Journal & Video

Posted on by Shauna Todd

Hi Everyone,

A whole month has zipped by (can you believe it?) since we introduced Zinia Amoiridou of Abstract Inspirations.  As mentioned, Zinia will be joining us every month for an art journal adventure.  Zinia is a super talent in the world of art journaling and we are very excited to have her share her ideas and techniques with us all.  Today you will see how she creates a dynamite background, full of texture and brings us a touch of Paris with the Paris Love clear stamp set by Penny Black. You even get to view the process in the great video she did for us – YAY! (by the way, if it shows up as a black box for the video, just click on it – it will reappear-thanks!)

So, hang on to your hats, we are off on an exciting adventure…
