Haberdashery art journal spread

Hi everyone,

I'm back another project with an art journal spread to participate in Frilly & Funky. This time the theme is Haberdashery. So I went for a vintage art journal spread that I made of pages out of an old Dutch book and I had fun with altering them.

Fall card with video tutorial

Hi everyone,

It's Monday and that means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week it's all about "Fall/Autumn".

I love spring and summer, but fortunately autumn has beautiful colors and that makes up for calling to winter. For the background I used Distress Oxides in the colors Spiced Marmalade, Ripe Persimmon, Mustard Seed and Ground Espresso. I stamped the numbers of the Purveyor stamp set with Archival Ink Coffee.

Flora card

Hi everyone,

It's been a while making a project to participate into other challenges! Unfortunately no video of the process, because it's so time consuming and I made this one at night, and I need daylight to film. It was also fun to not film the process for once and just go.

Back to School/Hogwarts card with video tutorial

Hi everyone,

It's Monday and that means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week our challenge is "Back to School".

It's time to go back to school!! But it's almost Halloween too. Let's combine the two to make my first Halloween card of the season. A back to Hogwarts card if you will, you know Harry Potter's magic school... I started embossing the background with the Wallpaper stamp and Black Embossing Powder. To give it some color (of course orange) I used Distress Oxides, Spiced Marmalade and Ripe Persimmon.

Sprinkles and Splatters art journal spread with video tutorial

Hi everyone,

It's Monday and that means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week it's all about "Sprinkles and Splatters".

It's always nice to be messy in an art journal, so for this challenge I made a spread once again. I started with the Jane Davenport Rub Ons and Tape Strips (thanks Marzena) that I had left from the previous challenge and over it I applied Opal Magic in Green-Gold, Blue-Gold and Rose-Gold paint. From there I played around with a 49 and Market stamp set called Captured Adventures.

Tape it Up card with video tutorial

Hi everyone,

It's Monday and that means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week it's all about "Tape it Up". We're also showcasing Jane Davenport products! So if you have any, please use them, if you don't that's okay too.

This is the first time that I worked with Jane Davenport products and I had a lot of fun with them (Thanks, Marzena!). The Tape Strips are very nice, especially because they are really made from paper so they work well with ink. And the Rub Ons are fabulous, especially because the ladies have a white background, so they can be added on every color surface. Anyway, on with my card. I started to add the Tape Strips randomly and after that I applied a layer of Collage Medium mixed with water to seal them in.
