the letter Q for the craft barn

Wow, suddenly the sun returned! Otherwise only rain, rain, rain...

This journal page made me happy - my letter Q for the craft barn. I could have chosen quadrat too , but having a quilting/patchwork history - I almost felt like "coming home"...:-)

I used stamps from Sodalicious and l`encre et l`ìmage and the alphabet set is from sizzix , called "Man, oh man"... (thanks Katherine!)

Hope you like it!

letter N and spooktacular

... well, well, well... never said my english was perfect!
Today , the letter N was chosen for the fortnightly dictionary challenge at the craft barn.
I started this page thinking "neon" until I realized that the english word must be fluo, like in french. SOOO - rethinking...
I found my gorgeous cherry pie art stamps and made the page into a spooky " NECROMANCY" entry. And because it is spooky, I may enter the challenge at artful times where the theme is "spooktacular".

Wish you all a colourful Halloween!

the letter Z for the craft barn

Hello again!

My dictionary didn't have many words starting with Z, but I've had this gorgeous little zombiestamp for ages now, and I felt that it was right to use it. So this is my entry to craftbarns dictionary challenge with the letter Z.

Very much fun!

Hope you like it!

the letter T without a twist...

The craft barn just came up with the letter T for their alpha dictionary challenge.
I used a gelli plate background and went with the number TWO.

Hope you like it!

The letter F(e-Fr) for the craft barn

This art journal page is my entry to challenge letter F at the craft barn.

I used my gelli plate to create the background, using real feathers as well. The peacock feather is one of the last ones from peacock Paul...

the letter W with circles

Hello again!

The craft barns alpha challenge is still one of my favorites to join right now. This time we have the letter W to work with and we have to use some kind of circle on the page as well.

Creating this water page , I used dylusion and distress inks, stencils from sodalicious and the crafters workshop. I added my beloved gesso with modelling paste and the stencils are from paperartsy and art journey.

Hope you all like it!

the letter M(e) for the craft barn

This is my page for the new challenge over at the craft barn.
This time we should use the letter M and I chose the word "measure".
The background is layered acrylics and the stamps cherry pie art stamps, inkado, creavil, denim and infocrea. Otherwise I used felt letters and a lot of different washi tapes.

Have a nice wednesday everybody!

Letter H

Hello again! Sunday and here we go...

This is my entry to the craft barns alpha challenge letter H.

Using the dylusion ink spray again. The "bleeding" heart is made with modelling paste and the small hearts are from Tim Holtz. The stamp is from My Stamp Box.

The letter V for the alpha challenge

I was(and still am) happy to have been able to finish the calendar challenge at the craft barn oct-dec 2012. I could not imagine starting another project like that - at least not now.

BUT sunday arrived again and so did an invitation to start craft barn's new challenge ALPHA. Today is the letter V. That V got stuck in my head and the result you see here.

I used the Sizzix sewing room, a dylusion stamp, an old dictionary, thickers, acrylics, a stencil from crafters workshop, some bling and ribbon.

Wish you all a happy start of the new week!
