The Green Man – Spring in the Forest

 

 Sehnsucht nach Frühling

 Durch die Kombination verschiedener Materialien und Strukturen entsteht eine vielschichtige Oberfläche, die das Erwachen des Frühlings widerspiegelt: neues Leben, frische Grüntöne und organische Formen. Das Werk lädt dazu ein, den Wald nicht nur als Landschaft, sondern als fühlendes, atmendes Wesen wahrzunehmen.

Stepping Out of Line – Scrapbooking with Chipboards

 

Scrapbooking is all about telling stories, 

and sometimes the most exciting stories begin when we dare to step out of line.

For this project, I worked with the theme “to step out of line”, which for me means trying something unexpected and embracing creative freedom. 

Chipboards played a key role in this layout. I love how they add dimension and structure while still leaving room for creativity. Chipboard elements  were altered with Embossing powder, paint and ink to create contrast and rust effects as highlight the focal points of the page.

This creates movement and makes the layout feel dynamic and expressive rather than perfectly aligned.

Scrapbooking doesn’t have to be perfect – it should feel honest, playful, and inspiring.

A Winter Walk to Remember

 

 

Winter walks have a very special kind of magic. The air is cold and fresh, the world feels quieter, and every step leaves a trace in the snow. 

On this winter day, we went for a long walk through the snowy landscape. 

The soft winter colors, the frozen trees, and dog’s paw prints in the snow made this walk feel timeless. It was a simple moment, but it felt peaceful.

This scrapbook page is more than just paper and photos. It’s a reminder of cold noses and the quiet happiness of spending time together. By using some amazing winter chipboards, I was able to create depth and highlight special details on the page.

New Year Shadowbox Art: A Dark Grinch Twist ✨

 

 

New Year, new ideas, same love for creativity.
Let’s make this year amazing together!

🎨✨

 

I created this handmade shadowbox using 

layered chipboards and mixed media elements, inspired by a steampunk style.
Gears, metallic textures, and a touch of whimsy come together to 

welcome the New Year in a unique way.
Perfect for everyone who loves creative details and a little steampunk magic! 

I combined the funny Grinch with a Mad Hatter from the Alice series

  and designed depth, dimension, and contrast to create 

a mysterious and dramatic atmosphere.
