Hello, Goodbye and a flashback!

Well, it really has been an awesome scrappy year 
with many delightful and fun moments on my crafty desk and a lot of inspiration! 
I picked some of my favorites projects I created in 2014 and just wanted to show to you, with no particular reason, just because they are my favorite ones and had much fun creating them :)

Grandma's journal - page #2


Hello there!
This is my DT project for the Frosted Designs Friday Challenge "mixed media'.
I made two pages in my Grandma's journal where I keep all her photos (this is the second double page, here you can see the first one) and of course they are all original vintage, they don't even have to be distressed!
Please visit Frosted Designs blog to see more details about the challenge and I hop to see your projects there!

For my project I used the sketch from the 'Let's Capture Our Memories' current challenge:

...and got a lot of inspiration from the 'Mixed Media Place' -creative gym-exercise #1 challenge:

Remember Always



Hello everyone!
Today is Scrap Africa's new challenge reveal and the sketch is absolutely gorgeous!! 


When I saw Denise's sketch it came straight in my mind this photo, which I have found in an old album at my parent's house. This album belonged to my beloved grandma who died at the age of 94 (I can' t believe that 11 years have past since then) and is full of original vintage photos of her life.  She was born at 1909- you can imagine how old are they, they will not even need to be distressed! Now all these photos (and there are a lot of them) are in my hands and I' m going to make an album for them... Well, these are my first two pages and there are going to be a lot more of them :)

To the sketch now: I think it can be interpreted in so many ways not only because it is beautifully designed, but also because it has this 60's vibe going on there, which I absolutely adore. So whatever your style is, it would be a perfect base to work with. I can' t wait to see what you will come up with it!
