 Hello  and welcome to my second blog post for the company Scrap Fx Australia. I created this time a scrapbook layout in mixed media style with a photo of my daughter Mia years ago. Therefore I used the beautiful stencil:  Words of Wisdom stencil one of my favorite stamps: Squared stamp transparency as embellishments: Circle Patterns transparency Art Words transparency   and the decorative chipboard: Circle Hash frame Here is the link to the store from Scrap Fx:  http://www.scrapfx.com.au/store/ Art is anything... a closer look: For this page I used the color combination orange, pink and blue with black and white. What I love about the transparency from Scrap Fx: they are perfect as embellishments and finishing touch. Chipboards are a beautiful way to add 3D effects on the page. I always paint my chiüboard with black gesso first before I add my main color or  embossing powder. The black paint/ gesso gives more depth and enhances the 3D effect. For my background paper I used the new pap

 Hello 13@rts fans, you know already the new paper collection from 13@rts is now worldwide available. I have chosen for my inspiration the wonderful "Sunrise" paper collection and a photo from my beautiful husband. The photo is a little bit overexposed because I took it with the mobile phone. But anyway... I choose for my title one of the cardstock words from 13@rts which I colored with pastel grey spray. LOVE He is my Mr. Right, even after so many years he can turn my world upside down. I still have butterflies when I see him and I wish nothing more than to have time on this earth with him for as long as possible. a closer look... I used for my background the beautiful butterfly stencil.  First I mixed gel medium with color glow and I added this mix to the stencil. I sprinkled embossing powder on the wet mixture. After that I melted the embossing powder with the heat tool. Then I added multipurpose medium with the brush insite the wings from the butterfly stencil image. Afte

 Hello everyone  and welcome to our new September main challenge on the blog from More than words. Here is the link:  https://morethanwordschallenge.blogspot.com/ M y inspiration for you is a layout created on 13@rts paper where I glued a "BOOK PAPER" collage. My book pages come from a book that belonged to my mother. I also put book pages behind the photo of my mother. BOOKS did not play a major role in my parent's world, in contrast to myself... I read one or two books a week. I recently became the proud owner of an e-book reader. I am interested in many genres: crime stories, fantasy, women or historical novels. I am currently reading the series of the seven sisters of Lucianda Riley. When I read a book I need silence and then I dive into the world of the book. I don`t hear anything anymore. Often it happens that my husband has to call me several times before I notice that he has spoken to me... Yeah I am a real "book-worm". Here are our amazing sponsors for
