Green and blue...

...are two of my favourite colours... :) I created an Art Journaling page for Pyssloteket, using gesso, pencil, acrylic paint, Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist, Glimmer Glam and Glimmer Glaze, a stencil from Prima and some old chipboard letters... More info on the supplies can be found in the blog post for Pyssloteket.

I used a 12x12 patterened paper as a base and it was fun working big! I think art journaling in 12x12 will be a fab complement to my bound journals.

Another fabric one...

Stomach bugs shouldn't be allowed... just sayin'... :( I'm desperately hoping to be able to go to work tomorrow. I'm not handling the stressful combination of deadlines at work, Christmas getting closer very quickly and a sick family, very well... Please cross your fingers that everyone recovers and stays healthy and that it happens soon!

Here's another of the fabric layouts I made for Scrap365 magazine a while ago.

Fabric layout...

Earlier this year I wrote an article for Scrap365 magazine about using fabric on layouts. It was published in the July issue and this is one of the layouts I created for the article.

Painted background...

I created this layout for Tattered Angels, using one of my favourite techniques. I made the background using gesso, a stencil from Crafter's Workshop, acrylic paint and Tattered Angels Glimmer Glam. I covered the entire background with Glam and I LOVE the way it glitters and sparkles.




I used Glimmer Mist on the threads (Cupid), on the thickers (Sun Sisters) and on the flower (Aquamarine) and I painted the sun sticker with Glimmer Glaze.


I misted the rose ribbon with Chalkboard Glimmer Mist Polka Dot Pink.

I painted the letters with Glimmer Glaze...

Big heart and small heart...

I created a couple of hearts for Tattered Angels this month. I got a set of heart shaped cookie cutters and decided to alter them. I wrapped fabric strips around one of them and painted the other one with gesso and Glimmer Glam.

This was the largest heart and I used one of the smaller ones to trace a heart onto a piece of cardboard to hang in the middle. I attached the heart in the middle using thin sewing thread. The fabric wrapped heart was misted using Glimmer Mists Silver Sugar, Electric Blue, Iridescent Gold and Chalkboard Mist Chalk and the cardboard heart was painted with gesso and Glimmer Glam Caspian Sea and Calm Before The Storm.

I also misted the flowers, the flower ribbon and the lace for the hanging. The letter stickers (god jul means "merry christmas" by the way :) were painted with Glimmer Glam Icicle. Check out the Tattered Angels blog for more info and also some photos I took along the way.





I added a flower to the center of the smaller heart and used cord from Canvas Corp for the hanging. The Glimmer Glam I used is called Smooches.





Have a wonderful day...!!!

Another one for Cocoa Daisy...

...using the December kit.

For this layout I used the main kit + the "Nice to meet you" add on. This layout is so, so simple... but I really love it. I love this photo so much. The title says "The best hugs in the world" and I love that I managed to capture one of those fabulous hugs Tuva is giving us these days. :)
