When I was a little girl ...

Hello everyone!

I decided to make a vintage layout with 'Our Story' February Kit
for our DT Scrap of Darkness.
It's a wonderful memory on my childhood  at the tender age of 3 years with my grandparents
who are died far too early. 
They always took me to her garden in a little wooden handcart, 
where I was able to observe all the little nature things, florets, bugs, ants and butterflies.


I used a paper from the wonderful Blue Fern Studios' Memoirs collection
 as background, 
 the colors were perfect for my vintage layout. 
The work with the milk chocolate powder from Lindy's stamp gang was really 'Magical' unexpected color effects occur, fascinating!!


 
  Floral Add On

 
some details

 


 I used the Magical powder also for gauze


 wonderful flowers from the Floral Add On, 
flowers, leaves and the suitable butterfly are from 49 Market
I love this smart color


 background effects with ink splatters 


two chipboard hearts with embossing pearl powder


You can find our kits to purchase here,
and we have also a very inspiring  Facebook group here,
where we love to see everyone's work with our kits.

Thanks for your visit!
Happy crafting!

Rainbow Colors

Welcome!

I was inspired from the theme by 13arts

our weather is grey, wet and creepy - the best time for crafting :-)
yes, and I need colors and sunshine!
that makes good mood, or?!
 
As I was a child I've loved it to make soap bubbles,
I could spend hours with it.
That was my inspiration for my new little mixed media home decor piece.
Funny, cheerfully and in the colors of a rainbow.



 
 



  

thats my heat tool, because without this tool I cannot exist,
the reason is -  I'm a very impatient person -

Happy sunday my friends!

Carpe Diem with CCB

Welcome!

My idea was to create a diary cover in mixed media style
 with a broken heart, but patched and almost healed. 


used materials

how I made the mixed media background can you see
HERE

Tips to styrofoam heart


  •  it’s a half styrofoam piece and I inked this with Glimmer Mist ‘Cross My Heart’ and ‘Crimson’
  • Use a black permanent marker and make some points (4 for patch and 10 for seam)
  • Glue a little piece old bookpaper as patch and draw some lines
  • Make a little crack with cutting knife
  • Use a needle and black yarn and connected the points it’s a very special effect
  •  
 



 


Happy weekend!

Create with Joy

Welcome everybody!
A new project for our SASPC
with our monthly theme

and as always it is an "anything goes" 
as long as it is somehow steampunk or industrial style-ish




 my idea was to use an old book box for a new home decor piece
 with my new gentleman chipboard, 
I love this man with 
top hat :-)


I decided to create with a faux paint rust technique, 
so I used some acrylic paints together with a texture paste from DecoArt
which you can see here

 



black tissue paper as basic and then added snow tex
for an interesting structure surface


some close up's



if you need more informations, how i made this
please ask me!

Happy crafting!

DT Scrap of Darkness Butterflies

Welcome!

Today a shadow frame with a beautiful saying, 
just the right thing for a new home decor piece.
I was impressed from the G 45 paper page 'Every Blooming thing', 
I love meadows, poppies, butterflies which looks so natural.

 

 Happiness is like a butterfly. If you sit down quietly, it may light upon you.

This was a decorate chipboard from the G 45  Nature Sketchbook Collection ,
I used it as a tag with a ribbon around the whole wooden frame.


I used a part of the paper as background 
and furthermore a cut out from the butterfly and poppy flower. 
With this  3d elements the whole lives more.


I hope you will like this new January 'Botanique' Inspiration.

You can find our kits to purchase here,
and we have also a very inspiring  Facebook group here,

Happy crafting!

The Snow Queen

Welcome!

Do you know the old fairytale 'The Snow Queen' from Hans Christian Anderssen?,
 it was one of my favourite stories in my childhood.
 In the Disney adaption 'Frozen' are Elsa and Anna the main figures.
Our children loves this film and all the figures also snowmen 'Olaf', 
they are totally in vogue here.
 'Let it go' is the song which are sung or twittered on early morning,  
at noon and in the evening, especially when it has snowed.  

So I came up with the idea of tinkering a snow queen.
I also wanted to try the tattered angels mists together with fabric and stiffener.

 

how I  make this and more close up's
 can you see HERE


and very exciting News 
CCB has a new collection on start


with a great vintage feeling and perfect for projects in altered art!



Happy weekend!
