Wedding notebook for Studio75

Hello dears,

The Studio75 Cherry Blossom Collection can be used in many different types of projects. 

Due to the Black color, in it, you might think you couldn't use it for Wedding or Bride project. What my new Notebook is showing is that not only that's possible, you will also get a wonderful result.

The Wedding Notebook propose is to give the wedding guests a place to register their love for the couple - their greetings!

The nootebook size is A4 and the Notepad pages are decorocated with Roses, you can find more sizes & designs at the store. 
I also added 2 pages where the couple can insert 18 photos.

Hope I've inpired you xoxo

Romantic altered frame for Studio75

Hello dears,

I am here today with an altered Romantic Frame. 

Before I'll start showing you the new Studio75 collections I wanted to go back to earlier collections which I adore: Alice's dreams and Secret garden.

 I made the frame from heavy chipboard. 

Here are the steps for altering it:

1.       White gesso

2.       Texture past with a Stencil

3.       White Crackle paste

4.       Light pink color

5.       Light gold Wax

6.       Fussy cut  Feminine charactre and Butterfly, Leaves, Flowers, and more

7.       Assemble the focal composition with Chipboard frame, laces, and Tags

8.      Adhere Sentiment and Gold glitter

Hope you will find it inspiring and waiting to see your creations as well!

Hugs,

Shabby chic for Retro Kraft Shop

Hello dears,

Here today to show you my new project for Retro kraft shop Blog.

I love shabby chic! maybe as much as I love Steampunk, that's what I want to share with you today.

Shabby chic is all about old and new together. Distressed and crackled paint, flowers, layers of  fabric like lace and much more.

To create the background of my canvas:

I started by spreading the Canvas with  White gesso and before it was completely dry I drew lines with a pencil in an equal distance. When the gesso was dried I marked again with the pencil each line.

I painted combining Blue green Decoart fluid acrylics and Patina green Decoart antiquing cream, leaving lots of white lines. I used a wide paintbrush with hard fibers so we can see the strokes. I immediately brushed the background, without paint, to remove some more paint and achieve a distressed look. Next step was to add some White gesso and Raw umber Decoart antiquing cream  strokes with the same paint brush. I left it to dry completely.

The Prima flowers were painted with Pink 13arts Rainbow color and White gesso. 

A third flower was cut with the gorgeous Des fleurs Carabelle studio die set and colored with Spun sugar distress ink. I also cut from the same die set a flower doily, you can see it in the layers.

The leaves were stamped with feuilles Carabelle studio stamp on white cardstock and colored with Crushed olive distress ink.

The Birds image, flowers and Butterfly were cut out the gorgeous Scrapberry's primavera cards paper. The beautiful frame was made with Clay and Frame mold. The Home word is a Cardstock die cut from Prima's French Rivera paper pad.

Now it was time to assemble the layers with: Burlap, Laces, leaves, die cuts,Butterflies, Chipboard branches and Natural Moss.

Xoxo
