Dance to the music of your soul.. Hello lovely blog reader, "If you cannot teach me to fly,   teach me to sing." Peter Pan   (JM: Barrie) How did the March quote inspire me? First of all, our passion for music and dance. Often it happens that my handsome hubby and I spontaneously swing the dance leg and dance together. Just so fun. But not only the music from the music box, also the piano music played by my husband fills our house. I love it when he plays and I cook. The table is already covered the candles burning and then the sound of the piano music. An evening cannot better end, right? But now back to my dt member project. I have a paperbag décorted with stamp images of music. I also used an old music DIE from Tim Holtz and music design washi tape. As colors I used Distress Ink, Lindys spray and colored embossing powder. Metall embellishments from the dollar store here in The Netherlands. My photo image is from: pixabay free photo images. Dance with me...

Hello everyone,  welcome to my second blog post on the last day of February. My second post for Scrap Fx is also with steampunk products of them. I think it doesn't always have to be brown, gold or rust color at steampunk. I created for you as inspiration two scrapbook layouts. Lucky is a state of mind. I used for my chipboards purple and turquoise color and glitter embossing powder. Left over stickers from 7 Dots studio and Tim Holtz. Handmade flowers and die-cut leafs. Photo from pixabay and a women stamp images from my stash. Amazing...  A short description of my layout "amazing" I used a sheet of the new paper collection from 13@rts called "Unforgettable" and I started with clear gesso and after that a light white wash over my page. Then, I stamped with the chickenwire stamp from ScrapFx and Archival Ink. My first color layer was Mist pastel pink from 13@rts. I added a little piece of collage paper typeface from S...

Here is the link to MTW: https://morethanwordschallenge.blogspot.com/ Our February challenge is "RUST for the creative challenge and                                            "THE PAST for the word challenge. Awesome challenge right? I created a scrapbook page in honor to my mother. Here is my inspiration for you. How did the word "THE PAST" inspire me?  Actually it was the photo from my mother's past that inspired me to design this layout in honor to her. Because of water damage that we had in our house a long time ago, many photos of my family have been destroyed. In total, I was able to save three original photos of my mother. These photos are now my little treasure from the past. For the creative RUST cha...
