Frida Kahlo for AJJ

Mixed media on canvas - my Frida Kahlo for the august theme at Art Journal Journey.

Background - modelling paste, dylusion stencil, acrylics, layered papers, sizzix die cuts.

Great fun in my nice and cool basement!

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!

NATURE for stampotique

I made this tag to join the challenge at Stampotique designers challenge. The theme is nature.

Right now our beautiful country Luxemburg is grey and humid. I look forward to the first snow. Can you smell when the first snow is about to fall? I love the clean, white landscape when all the old leaves and the dirt is covered.

I used only stampotique stamps and die cuts from sizzix.

...can you smell the silence..?
