ASOI colour challenge

Being me=loving colours, I couldn`t resist the latest challenge at ASOI, using colours like irish cream, rich ruby, seafoam green, deep cobalt and steel blue.

I amused myself using scraps from Maja Design, stamps from Unity stamp company ( Christy Tomlinson) , Sodalicious and de Stempelwinkel ( cherrypieartstamp). A very nice challenge!

The sun still licks our faces here in the Grand Duchy - let `s see what the weekend brings...!

Hope you like this journal page!

the letter P for the craft barn

This is my entry to the craft barns alpha challenge - letter P = "pose".

I made the background last weekend attending Nathalie Kalbachs workshops here in Luxemburg; We had a great time with Nathalie, trying different of her techniques with PanPastels and acrylics. Then finishing of the weekend creating a canvas.

I used stamps from paperArtsy and Unitystamps.

Today (even yesterday) winter retuned AGAIN!  We all long for better temperatures and spring feelings ...

Wish you all a great week with lots of sun and happy feelings!

Letter E for the craft barn challenge

Getting back to work after an almost 4 month break made me stressed. No crafty time and no me time. Today is the first time this week when I can allow myself to let go and enjoy my basement - juhu!

This page is for the the alpha challenge at the craft barn where the letter this fortnight is E.

I started of with the words evolution, evaluation ...and ended with education. Pleased that I finally would be able to use this gorgeous image of a teacher from de stempelwinkel, which I bought in Wiesbaden a year ago.
Other stamps used;
Unitystamps (Christy Tomlinson), My stamp box(border) and Crafty Individuals (dragonfly).
The background is made with dylusion ink sprays through SODAlicious stencils. And the of course, A LOT OF Washitape...

I had fun!
Hope to see you soon again!

Calendar card no 9

And here it is - the 9th calendar card for the craft barn. This week the theme is a colour combination with white, teal and rust; I have to admit that my rusty colour is more orange than rusty, but I did add some barn door distress ink to get it more rusty...

The stamps are from unity stamp(brick wall), Kaiser Craft (checker plate), Felicitas Klink and Elles studio...

...and the little fellow in the heart is a "tin pin" from october afternoon.

Wish you all the best!

March , calendar card "yellow, white and green".

... and this is the 3rd and last one for today - The Craft Barns' calendar challenge 3 - march.

I'm using all my new stuff from the mega event at Scrapbook Werkstatt last weekend. I feel very lucky that I am able to use my left hand even though I have to keep my shoulder in one position. I don't feel much pain either...

Before the mega event and before going to hospital, I prepared some backgrounds so I could keep up with the different activities in the blog world. So great to have internet when I'm not allowed to leave the house!!!

Once more.... - happy Sunday!
