Hello crafty friends! 

I am here today to share my interpration of this month's Dusty Attic moodboard as well our bimonthly challenge at Scraps n Pieces. 

Some close ups

The flowers were misted with Tattered Angels Iridiscent Gold mist for extra sparkle. The Swirly Vine was painted with Mountain Meadow, Oceania and Faded Denim, and on top of that with a mixture of mica powder, gel medium and glass microspheres for extra texture. 

The swirly vine was misted with Lindy's Stamp Gang mist.

With this layout I would like to participate to 7 dots studio challenge - Favorite Quote

"Go now, run wild, barefoot and free" a hippie quote I love so much... It allows me to dream now I cannot run wild anymore and remember the times I run free in the past... i.e. before three kids lol
The paper I used is from the Fortune Teller Collection.

Here is the inspirational moodboard from 7 dots

In addition, I would like to participate in the Canvas Corp July collection with my summer photo and summer mood.

All three tag holders.

Memories Documented - Layout for More than Words August challenge

Hello crafty friends! 

August is here and a new challenge for More than Words! 

Word Inspiration - FRIENDS
Creative Challenge - CIRCLES

Use the word FRIENDS as inspiration for your project. You can choose to add the word somewhere on your project or simply be inspired to create from it. Please explain in your blog post how the word inspired you, if not already obvious.

We thought that the word "friends" would go perfectly with a CIRCLES challenge! "Circle of friends", "Friendship circle", get it? So, we want to see circles on your project, as many as you want, however you want. Round and round, until we get dizzy with creativity! 

The very first thought that comes to my mind with the word FRIENDS are my sons, who are not only brothers but also best friends. They fulfil each other and even though they fight pretty much all the time, they can't be apart. For the creative part of the challenge, I used a circular stencil with Finnabair rust paste, Prima Marketing flowers, an IOD flair button and a round Prima Memory Hardware knob. All mists are Lindy's. 

A couple of close ups

There are soooo many prizes up for grabs, come and play!

"Have Fun" card - More than Words July mini challenge

Hello all! 

It is the middle of summer here in Greece and so hot right now! But I am loving it! 

It's time for our mini challenge at More than Words! 

And this is my eco card. I used burlap as my card base and made a design with a Prima stencil and 3d gloss gel and Finnabair mica powder in Rust. I then glued some lace, die cut leaves and a large Prima flower. My card was decorated with Pimpinella Anisum, Coriander and Cinammon sticks. It smells great!!! 

Cinammon sticks and coriander. 

I love Pimpinella Anisum's star shape!  

Here's how it works:

The Mini Challenge runs on the last week of each month and is for

 cards, tags and ATCs only. (ATCs, or Trading Cards, are small works of art, 

about 2.5 by 3.5inches or 64 x89mm). 

This challenge requires you to use a specific word on your project.

We must see the actual word. 

You have only only one week - until the last of the month - to enter, so be quick!

Entry for the Mini Challenge is only via our Facebook page 

under the relevant post. 

Cant wait to see your creations!

Life is Beautiful - Dusty Attic moodboard layout

Hello my crafty friends! 

Today I want to show you my interpretation of the Dusty Attic July moodboard. 

I went for the colors of the moodboard but on darker shades, I love dramatic dark layouts lately. Of course, Dusty Attic chippies are the key element of my layout. 

The Lace Border #4 was heat embossed with 4 different Lindy's Stamp Gang embossing powders. 

I cut of the end part of the Ornate Pendants #3 and placed it under my photo. 

 The abstract frame was also heat embossed with Lindy's powders and then dry brushed with Colourarte Silks. The Foliage was misted with Lindy's mists and dry brushed with Silks as well. They really come to life! 

Lots of Finnabair art ingredients here too. Background was made with 3d gloss gel and Rust mica powder and then sprayed with lots and lots of Lindys mists. The paper is from the 7 Dots Studio Collection "Fortune Teller".
