Prima Cartographer mini album

Hello,

I made a mini album using the Prima Cartographer collection. I didn't use a lot of embellishments because I wanted it to be masculine. The embellisments you see are the chipboard pieces from the same collection and some wood veneer pieces.

Have a nice day!

Altered wooden box

Hi everyone

I wanted to make a more shabby chic looking box.

First I painted the box with gesso. 


Then I used broken china and spun sugar distress paint and some Tattered Angels gold terracota spray.
When this was dry I used two stencils and modeling paste to add some texture.


As you can see I added a cluster of flowers on top of the box. The flowers are a mixture from Magnolia, Prima and Wild Orchid Crafts Flowers.Underneath it I glued some lace and a crochet doily. Finally I glued two Prima shabbi chic treasures on the box.


The inside is covered with white paint and some rosette trim.


On Youtube is a video with the box and two cards I made. 



I hope you like it.

Once Upon a Sketch Challenge



Hi everyone,

I made a layout for this month Once Upon a Sketch Challenge. The journaling theme of this month is 'anything goes'. This is the sketch:





I used my inktense pencils and gelatos for the first time. The bright colors are gorgeous! I used the pencils on the background. The gelatos are used on the wood veneer pieces, the butterfly and the clothspin. All the flowers you see are Wild Orchid Crafts Flowers.

I chose the word 'smile' because I'm smiling on the picture. Last summer I went on a trip to France. On the picture I'm at a castle which had a beautiful garden that made me smile the whole day.

I hope you like it.
