Splatter and stamping for the craft stamper

Finally automne arrived and the trees start to sparkle in yellow, brown and orange.
Inspired by these automne colours, I made this journal page using different splatter techniques and Tim Holtz' alterations "acorn blueprint".
So, this page is my entry to challenge no 5 at Craft stampers.

Just LOVE these stamps! And I do think it is good value too - 3 stamps and 5 dies in one set...

Wishing you all a great sunday!

Taste/smak for SODAlicious

The word for taste, is "smak" in swedish - is it really the same in polnish?
Anyway - this is my entry to challenge no 36 at SODAlicious.

Hope you like it!

This is my entry to the alpha challenge at the craft barn. I made a collaged "jumble" (durcheinander) for my letter J.

Hope you like it!

My SODAlicious album - theme Berlin

A couple of months ago, I fell in love with a little mini album from SODAlicious. This weekend , we had a workshop here in Luxemburg - making this mini, using papers and journal cards from Poland. In the kits, I also had a lot of other stuff from SODAlicious, but I had to buy it through Scrapbook Werkstatt, because SODAlicious didn't sell these things anymore. Anyway - a big THANK you to Scrapbook Werkstatt for their quick delivery and of course to SODAlicious too.

My daughter went with her boyfriend to Berlin and they had a great time!

They were stunned by all the different graffiti all over.

I used only SODAlicious and ILS products.

The only colour added - neon orange!

I just LOVE using those "kartotek" cards as a background.

Katherine had prepared some lovely sizzix shapes to go with the theme.

I love this style and it is really very easy to make.

We had a lovely day together - next time the whole group will meet, will be in december for a "cool" christmas decoration - any good ideas?

Wishing you all some nice and sunny days!

Hugs

my letter G for the craft barn

Hello again!
Finally I'm back to join the challenge again - this time the letter G, and I used the word geometry. Maybe not my favorite class in school, but now I love those shapes.
So this is my journal page for the dictionary challenge at the craft barn.

Good fun!

"Less is more" for AJJ

This might seem like a shortcut or a page with little work put into it - but is was NOT. I got this phrase into my head and couldn't get it out. I had the perfect stamp and I started layering the background . Sorry if the photo doesn't show that...
Anyway - this is how I sometimes feel when I have noone to ask for advise and the theme at Art Journal Journey this month is "less is more" .
I used stamps from denimtampon and cherry pie art stamps, gesso, acrylics, puncinella, starpunches and dylusion ink sprays.

Now we will start sanding the floor - no crafty time for me, I believe.

Wish you all a nice september!

Lena

(ps - I got my SODAlicious delivery today - LOVE everything in that parcel!!!)

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 O for the craft barn

This time the letter O is wanted at the craft barns fortnightly dictionnary challenge. Because I had been away for some time, I suddenly couldn't find my nose-stamp from fusion art ... SOOO I had to make a collage instead. Hope you like it!

The flowers are all from sizzix - what a gorgeous collection!

Love!

another mini scrapbook - summer

Using a SODAlicious journal booklet as a base, I prepared the pages before the BIG "getaway".

As long as we were still at home, I could stamp and fill the pages.

While we were away, I used tickets and other ephemera to fill the backgrounds and later adding the photos.

...still using tickets and numbers...

still at home

Washi tape is a very good thing to bring on holidays!

I also used cutouts and journal tags from Sarah Hurley.

Kesi art stamps and S. Hurley

I love this little book - it was very easy to bring and because it was well prepared, it was easy to fill aswell. A very nice memory and a very good way of using all these gorgeous tickets and information from the actual trip!

Take care out there and don't forget to drink - very important in this heat!
