Altered Bottle Xmas

 Hello everyone!
 
Although Halloween is over,  these are the magical times of the year, 
we start with the preparations for christmas and 
long dark evenings invite again to tell stories.
 
I was inspired to create a new christmas gift project, 
it's a bottle in Altered Art.
 
I worked with Decoupage technique and combined this mixed media piece
 with MDF shapes, outcast's from silicone moulds and a lot of snow texture.
 




used MDF shapes from Calico Craft Parts

GD Craft O' Clock - Home Decor Age of Mysteries

 

Welcome creative souls!

 

I was invited to create some guest design projects
 with the amazing paper collections
 There you can find a lot of motifs for cut out 
for all events and creative ideas. 
 
Thanks so much for your invitation!!
 
 

 

As I saw the Age of Mysteries paper collection I had the inspiration

 to use some wooden letters as base for a gift idea. 

It's a home decor piece as desk or shelf decoration,

you can attach an individual funny photo and

 it's always an interesting eyecatcher.

An individuel gift,  simple and quickly made.


I used a 20 x 20 cm background paper from this collection 

and some cut out motifs, which were  supplemented 

with suitable cutting dies and two metallic elements.

Altered Book with Dusty Attic

 

Welcome creative souls!

 

 A little bit late for Halloween, I know
but our nights in November are also always very dark, 
misty and mysterious.
 
Some would also say after Halloween is before Halloween, 
but I'm not such a big fan of this event, I
 rather love the magic and mystery and the great fantasy behind it.
 

 

 I created a book in Altered Art, love this old, weathered look
it fits to a mystery atmosphäre
and invite to tell fantasy stories.
Dusty Attic  has a large selection of chipboards
 for such stories in the assortment, love that!

Halloween Decor with Dusty Attic October Moodboard

 

Welcome creative friends!

 

Mr. skull invites you to the pumpkin house

🎃👀🎃

 

 

I was inspired to create a new Home Decor piece

as a Halloween gift. 

The colors from our monthly Moodboard were a perfect match for it.

I love to create

 with this funny spook, a lot of fantasy, in a dark foggy robe. 

 

 

I used a background paper from La Blanche as base,
glued a cut out from spooky house on cardboard,
I created some 3D effects e.g. a balcony. 
By decorating with the chipboards the whole house 
looks much more alive.
