cHeRries

Hello everyone!
It is August already and that means that the summer is almost gone here in Greece... but there is still time for some swimming and relaxing at the beach! These days I'm at my parent's summer house with my family and I have only a few scrappy supplies in my bag, so I had to do something only with those.... and this is my page!



As always I did a lot of stamping and masking with gesso, gelatos and mists! I also wrote a few times the word 'cherries' in the little squares  like a crossword to add more interest to my page!





***Page inspired by sketch from Berry71Blue and mood board from 13arts (I picked the first color combo red-green-white and I used red and green mists:)

   


That's all for today, I hope you have a wonderful rest of week!

Hello everyone!
Today is the 1st of August and we have a new challenge for you at Scrap Africa!

This is Marta's sketch... 

...very beautiful and fits in every style, don't you think?

For my page I used a lot of stamps (as always:) and a single mask with my gelatos to create a mixed media background. A couple of buttons, a paperclip, a decorative pin, a few black sequins and some stickers is everything else I put on my page. 




my recipe challenge!


Hello everyone! Today it is my turn to host the Friday challenge at Frosted Designs! After a lot of thinking I decided to go with three of my favorite things I use for my creations, so here is my recipe challenge:

You have to include on your project at least one from each 'ingredients' or more, whatever you like!
For my page I used a lot of stamps as always, because I like to blend the patterns of them to create my own background on the paper. I colored some stamped flowers with my gelatos - I love the watercolor effect they make! I used one mask again with the gelatos and then I highlighted some spots with my pen. Finally I used the Maya Road bicycle paperclip which I think is very cute, some decorative pins, a couple of Petaloo flowers and buttons. The paper is from the Studio Calico Printshop collection and I absolutely love the pattern! 
I hope you like the recipe and I can't wait to see your creations with these three 'ingredients' :)
