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.

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!

DT Scrap Africa - Enjoy winter time

Welcome!

It's still winter time here, 
for me spring could start it, ups ;-) a little bit early. 
I miss  the sunshine, warm temperatures, chirping birds, floridity
 and all the other beautiful things in spring.
But winter has also beautiful sides.


Enjoy the little things!

and this is our Mood board for February
I was inspired from the stripes and color blue,
but I think there are so many other opportunities
to use this moodboard as inspiration for your own creative project.


Happy crafting!

DT Scrap FX Steampunk Time II

Welcome!

and  the next two Steampunk inspirations for you and our Scrap FX Designteam
First a new desktop piece,
where I can collect my various pencils, markers,
notes and all the other thousand small things.

 

Scrap FX products used: 



I created an industrial look together with some acrylic paints
 from Decoart, crackle effects and stamps 


 look at the wonderful details on this black cardstock feather, 
AMAZING!!!
 I love all the little things on it, so filigree!


 I used it for the back front, so that you can also admire it from both sides.



based on a white gesso underground, 
a little bit black embossing powder on some areas and a rust acrylic paint


The gears are best suited to be stamped on a white background. I used a clear little script stamp.

 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

and my second project, a Layout,
where I used a big gear as frame for a family photo
can you see here

Many thanks for stopping by!
Happy crafting!
