Florettseidenbaum

Hallo! Heute gibt es wieder eine neue Challenge bei Challenge up your life! Diesmal wollen wir Kakteen auf euren Werken sehen!

Ich habe Fotos von unserem Urlaub in Ägypten ausgewählt. Dort gab es diese stacheligen Bäume mit den schönen Blüten. Ich habe ein bisschen gegoogelt und herausgefunden, dass sie "Florettseidenbaum" heißen und eigentlich aus Südamerika kommen. 
Da das aber natürlich keine Kakteen sind, habe ich diese in meine Deko eingebaut. 

Ich freue mich, auf eure Werke!

Danke für deinen Besuch!

Hello scrappy friends! Today I show you my latest layout for Lasting Memories. The assignment today:  Alphas - Use at least 2 different types/fonts of alphas on your layout 

 And it is the first time, I checked out the freaky fast formula challenge of Scraproom blog:

And for color inspiration, I used the challenge from CSI:

 

From the evidence I used: polka dots, hearts, a camper, twine

 I really love the camper cutfile from the cut shoppe! I cut it out of some kraft paper and colored it with some light turquoise gilding polish.

Thanks for stopping by!

mobile Home

With my newest layout I want to take part at the challenge of CSI:

And I used this sketch from Sketch N Srap (I flipped it):

From the evidence of the CSI casefile I used:
wood veneer, flowers, phrase stickers, sth. textured (the embossing onto the feathers), stencil 

And I documented something about home - our mobile home.

I stamped the feathers onto kraft paper and embossed them white. I love the texture and the shiny effect.

Thanks for stopping by!

beautiful season

Today, I'm sharing a layout, I made for  Lasting Memories.The assignment this week is: harvest.  

I used black cardstock as my background. Then I cut out the fallling leaves cutfile from clique kits and backed them with papers from a harvest set from echo parc.

The title is from the sticker set of this collection. I painted the word "beautiful" with some gold acrylic paint.

Thanks for stopping by!

my favorites

All about YOU! We have a really interesting challenge at Lasting Memories for you! Today:

#405 - YOU are my favorite

Create a layout documenting one or many of your favorite things and journal your WHY. You can do a layout listing your favorites in multiple categories - book, movie, food, location, drink, tv show, etc; or, you can focus on one favorite that deserves it's own entire layout. 

I really love the sea, sunsets, time with my famiy, sand under my feet, the North sea... All these things are my absolute favorites an you can see them on my layout!

I used the awesome SF-Stamps "Muscheln" to create some decoration. I stamped the seashells on kraft paper and colored them with polychromos.

I want to take part at the challenge of challenge YOUrself:

Thanks for stopping by!

happy

Today, I created a layout with the blend-a-sketch challenge from Scrap our Stash:

And the paper girls have the assignment to use transparencies!

For my background I used a sheet of kraft paper and piece of brown cardstock that I embossed with an embossing folder. Then I colored the swirls with golden gilding polish. 

The hearts are made with lots of embossing powder and a swirl stamp that I pressed into the hot, smooth embossingpowder.Before pressing the stamp into the liquid embossing powder, I colored it with distress oxide to get this awesome effect!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hallo zusammen! Heute zeige ich euch mein neuestes Layout. Ich habe mir hierzu den Sketch von Let's get Sketchy zu Hilfe genommen:

Hello scrappy friends! Today I'm sharing my newest layout. I used the actual sketch from Let's get Sketchy as inspiration:

 

Als Hintergrund habe ich Kraft-Papier verwendet, weil darauf die Farben so toll leuchten. Die Kringel (von SF-Stamps) habe ich  mit brauner Versafine-Stempelfarbe gestempelt und zum Teil mit metallic gilding polish coloriert. Den Zweig unter meinem Titel habe ich mit Polycromos angemalt. Das Dekopapier habe ich mit gilding Polish eingefärbt und dann geprägt. 

I used kraft paper as my background. I love how the colors shine on it! I stamped some swirls from SF-Stamps onto it and colored parts of them with metallic gilding polish. The papers I used for decoration is painted with gilding polish, too. 

Die Hibiskus-Blüten habe ich auf Kraft-Papier gestempelt, mit Polychromos coloriert und ausgeschnitten. 

I stamped the flowers onto kraft paper and coloured them with polychromos.

exit games

Hello scrappy friends! Today, I'm sharing a layout for the new challenge at the studio challenges. the assignment is: You; create a layout about something to do with you. It could be something you love, hate or your hopes and dreams, anything as long as it's about you! I think it's a topic we as scrappers don't do enough of!

I created a layout about something, I really love: playing games with my friends! We meet every 14 days to play games. And sure we had to try live exit! For this, you (and your friends) are locked in a room and you have one hour to solve riddles and find the key! We had so much fun! 

Thanks for stopping by!

Wunderschön

Heute wollen wir bei challenge up your life GOLD sehen! 

Today we want to see GOLD on your layouts at challenge up your life!

Für mein Layout habe ich goldenes gilding polish verwendet. Das ist eine tolle, cremige Farbe, die ein Schwämmchen im Deckel dabei hat. Zuerst habe ich auf den Hintergrund mit einem Stencil ein Muster aufgebracht. Dann habe ich braunen Cardstock mit einem Embossingfolder embosst und dann mit dem Polish die Schnörkel eingefärbt. Daraufhin habe ich ein Stück weißen Cardstock mit dem Polish eingefärbt und als Hintergrund für meinen embossten Carstock verwendet.

Für den Titel habe ich ebenfalls weißen Cardstock golden eingefärbt und mit der Cameo den Schriftzug ausgeschnitten. 

Die Palme ist aus dem Set "Endlich Urlaub" von SF-Stamps. Ich habe sie mit brauner Stempelfarbe gestempelt, mit Gold ein paar kleine Akzente an den Spitzen gesetzt und dann ausgeschnitten.

Danke für deinen Besuch!

Heute zeige ich euch mein neuestes Layout for das Design Team von Lasting Memories. Diesen Monat geht es um Papiertechniken. 
Diese Woche: Gestalte dein eigenes Hintergrundpapier! 
 
Today I'm sharing my newest layout for the Lasting Memories design team. The focus this month is on papers. This week the assignment is: create your own background paper!


Hierfür habe ich die Worte der SF-Stamps Set "die Seele baumeln lassen"auf mein Hintergrundpapier gestempelt. Auf einen Streifen dunkelbraunen Cardstock habe ich noch einige Blumen aus dem Set "die besten Wünsche" gestempelt. 

I stamped words from the sf-stamps collection "die Seele baumeln lassen" onto my background paper and some flowers on a piece of dark brown cardstock to use it as decoration.

  
Die Muschel-Stempel habe ich mit brauner Versafine-Stempelfarbe auf Kraftpapier gestempelt und mit Polychormos coloriert. Ich bin total begeistert, wie toll das auf dem Kraftpapier raus kommt!

I stamped the seashell stamps with brown versafine and colored them with polychromos pencils.  I really love how it turned out on the kraft paper!

Die große Blume aus dem "die besten Wünsche" -Set habe ich mit hellbraun gestempelt und dann mit Stickles nachgefahren, damit es schön glitzert. 

A close up to the big flower that I stamped and then traced with stickles to give it a more glittery effect.

let's have fun

Hallo liebe Bastelfreunde! Es gibt eine neue Challenge bei challenge up your life mit dem Thema: Fahrzeuge

Hello scrappy friends! A new challenge at challenge up your life is online. The assignment for the next 2 weeks: vehicles

Für mein Layout habe ich Fotos von mir und meiner Tochter verwendet, auf denen wir auf einem Trettraktor fahren. Die Datei für den Kreis hinter den Fotos ist von the cut shoppe.

I decided to use some funny photos with me and my daughter driving a toy tractor. The circle cut file behind the photos is from the cut shoppe.

Den "Wagenrädern" habe ich mit distress embossingpulver einen rostigen Anstrich verpasst.

The "wheels" got an ancient touch with distress embossing powder.

Danke für deinen Besuch!

Thanks for your visit!

A new challenge at the studio challenges is online! The assignment today: use kraft paper!

And for more Inspiration, I used the Sketch of Sketches in Thyme:

I love kraft paper, but often, I don't know, how to use it. But now, I had to use it for the challenge and I really loved it! I combined it with whtie and turquoise.

I love these feather stamps! I stamped them with distress oxides onto kraft paper and cut them out with my big shot. 

The woodgrain paper fits so beautiful together with the kraft paper.

The title is cut out with my cameo (shoreline script). The sentence "dare to dream big" is a stamp from the feather stamping set. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Forte Belvedere

A new month starts at Lasting Memories layout challenges. 

#384 -Did you Know? March was named for the Roman God "Mars" Mars  was the god of war and also an agricultural guardian. 

So this gives you 2 options, a layout about war (think a layout of a war hero, museum-area about war (Gettysburg)...) or an agricultural/farm layout (which this could cover just about anything with farming-food, animals, seasons....)

I decided to create a layout with some pictures from our last years Holidays where we visited a war museum in an old fortress.

I used the actual Sketch from Stuck?! Sketches as inspiration:

I used kraft paper as my background. I love kraft paper, but often, I don't know how to work with it, but now, I wanted to challenge me and used it today. I love the combination of kraft and white!

Thanks for stopping by!
