 Hello my dear followers, how are you today. Welcome to my second design team blog post for the company  13arts  in the month of February. I created a scrapbook layout on a white cardstock paper with lots of  stencils and  stamps from 13arts. I had a lot of fun designing this funky page. I used for my focal point one of the tiny dolls from Tim Holtz. The embellishments are from the  Young and Free collection and from the  Mr. Handsome  paper collection. Birthday Girl... A closer look to my page... My mediums are lots of Distress Ink and Archival Ink Black Gesso, Gel medium and Clear Gesso as well. This is the photo collage with some of the 13arts products. Industrial stamp Back in Time Young and Free Thank you so much for visiting today my blog post I appreciate it very well. Have a wonderful day. xoxo

 Hello my dear followers  and welcome to my second design team inspiration for the company: ScrapFX I created a canvas layout in the size 25cm x 25cm. The ScrapFx February release is still the theme "Steampunk". I used the beautiful steampunk peacock chipboard as my focale point and with the quote from Oscar Wilde in my head, I know I needed also a matching photo. The quote from Oscar Wilde goes                     She is a peacock                     in everything but                     beauty. A closer look to my canvas: I started with adding Acrylic colours to my background. The colours are: light blue, turquise, rosegold, yellowgreen and white. After everything was dry very well I glued the collage paper and a transparency skull with gel medium to my background. I used the collage paper: dem bones and anatomy, and the transp...

 Hello everyone, today I want to show you some photos of my new studio. Since the end of last year my handsome hubby and I are empthy nest parents and I got two of our four children bedrooms for my hobby. How nice it is to be creatively busy between all my treasures and favorite products is just  indescribably wonderful. I initially had a different arrangement of the furniture in the first place, but after a few weeks of creating in my studio I changed a few things. I set up an additional crafting table by the window and  I swapped two tables which I already had in my studio. I`ve also decorate the walls with some Art and I hung up several fairy-lights. Fairy-lights are so charming and always makes me happy. My studio... This is the new (old) table by my window. The table is from the fifties. my chair is from Ikea. The main colour in my studio is poisen ivory, that is a lovely green colour. The white kitchen cabinet contains all my sewing products. On the right side of th...

 Hello my dear follwers, I hope you had a wonderful Valentine`s day. Today`s sharing is my first design team inspiration in the month of February for the company  Scrapfx . The NEW release for this month February is all about ScrapFx Steampunk . I created a scrapbook layout in mixed media style with a photo from Marcin Nagraba. The photo was so perfect for what I had in mind. And that was a feminine/wintery  Witch Steampunk page in white, black, mint and silver.  My foto comes from the Polish photographer and visial artist : Marcin  Nagraba. Here I have one of my favorite sentences which matches perfectly my scrapbook layout. Magic comes from what is inside you. It is part of you. You can`t weave together a spell that you don`t believe in... (Jim Butcher) "The Dresden Files" WINTER-WITCH... A closer look to my layout. For my background paper I choose a sheet from the  Secret Garden paper collection from 13arts. Which I covered with a white wash  for a...

 Hello my dear followers, I hope you are all doing well. Todays sharing is a scrapbook layout in mixed media style for the company  13arts . My background paper is from the Magnolia Dreams paper collection  and I used the paper sheet:  Sweet Magnolias . My color choice for my page was light blue, dark blue and copper. Before I started with adding color to my page I stamped randomly with the  Memory Lane stamp and Archival Black Ink. After that I added to the  Floral pattern stencil  from the  Memory Lane paper collection a mix from  Liquid medium  and  Rainbow color Navy Blue . I added the mix with a makeup sponge. I splatterd the left over mix also on my background. And I also used the gray blue color from the  Watercolor set  for big splatters. My next step was adding  Black Gesso  and  Color Glow Golden Calcite  (by the way this is my favorite Color Glow color). After everything was dry very well I a...
