Hi my dear crafty friends.

Today... well today is a BIG day for me. I've been thinking and working a lot these last few days, trying to bring the best projects out of me to apply for my biggest dreams that slipped through my fingers two years ago. My all time favourite Graphic 45 Brand Ambassador Audition 2018. 

Steampunk rusty altered dragon and Lindy's april challenge

Hi dear crafty friends,

Today started a new month - month of April and you know what that means!!! It's time for a new exciting challenge over at Lindy's gang blog. This month we went all rusty on you and I decided to alter a dragon and made him all rusty. I put him up on a rusty old mistery box! 

"Summer fun on sand & sun"

hi my dear sweet crafty friends,

I have another treat for you today, sharing my recent layout, I made with gorgeous Graphic 45 new collection "Sun kissed". I just looooove this collection! I fell in love with it the first time I layed my eyes on it and my dear Kelly from the 7 kids Your crafting supply store was kind enough to send it to me right away, including all the emphemera cards and stickers and everything! She is just the sweetest person ever and I can never thank her enough to be so kind and generous to me! Make sure to visit her store and check out all the awesome things she has inside for us to play!

I decided to make a fun and sunny layout. I really like how it turned out and I hope you'll love it to and it maybe gives you some inspiration for your next project!

"Secret garden" exploding box with Graphic 45

Hi my dear crafty friends,

I'd like to share with you today my latest exploding box - "Secret Garden" made with one of my favourite Graphic 45 paper collections "Secret Garden". Well... I say that for almost every collection from Graphic 45, but they are all amazingly gorgeous, aren't they? :D I hope you'll like this soft, pastel, spring exploding box... this time without a tutorial.

"Spring Easter egg pots" with Lindy's gang

Hi dear crafty friends,

We are allready in a month of March - a spring month, when everything blooms and nature invites and awakes us with its gorgeous colors and blossom's fragrances. Easter is fast approaching and I decided to join Lindy's, Spring and Easter together, and bring you beautiful spring Easter eggs in pots.

I leaned on this month's Lindy's challenge color palette, since I really really loved the gorgeous Moodboard for this month. And by the way, i you haven't allready, consider joining us in the challenge! You'll have fun and you can win an amazing prize! I paired beautiful Lindy's gang shades with gorgeous Graphic 45 papers from the "Seasons" collection. They fit perfectly for the project I had in mind!

"Delightful imagination" reversed canvas with Graphic 45 and Lindy's

Hi my dear crafty friends,

Today I'm sharing with you my mixed media reversed canvas. It's been some time since I made last one and when I saw this photo of a woman, surrounded with butterflies, I knew immediately what I wanted to do and Graphic 45 Olde Curiostiy Shoppe collection with butterflies was perfect for it. For coloring I used gorgeous Lindy's gang Magicals and Magical shakers.

"Coffee break" altered coffee cup

Hi my dear crafty friends,

It's been some days, since I last shared on my blog. After my father's death I'm still having some hard times finding the strength and the will to make time for anything that isn't quite necessary. But today I decided to play again a bit and make a project that I had in my mind for quite some time allready. It is an altered coffee cup, like the ones you get in Starbucks for example. I decorated it with amazing Graphic 45 collection "Cafe Parisian" and used some gorgeous Lindy's for coloring. I added beautiful Scrapiniec chipboards and lovely Prima marketing flowers.

Sun catcher with Graphic 45 "Sun Kissed"

Hi my dear crafty friends,

Today I have something different for you. I was so happy to receive the latest Graphic 45 Sun Kissed collection. It is one of the most beautiful paper collections ever and I have so so many ideas for it. But first... I made so many altered embroidery hoop dream catchers allready, but this time I decided to spice up things a bit and make a 3D "sun catcher". I hope you'll like it!

"Time heals, dries tears"

Hi my dear crafty friends,

Since the last few sad days and weeks I was having troubles creating beautiful things. I told my dear friend Jammie that it is like you are in a dark and trying to create something beautiful and it gets realy hard sometimes. So she said... create something sad, something dark, to give all that saddness and darkness out of you. And this photo spoked to me and I found it fits perfectly to new Prima marketing Amelia Rose collection. So I made two tags.

"Let the wind kiss your face" altered garden shovel

Hi my dear crafty friends,

The new monthly challenge for March is up on Lindy's gang blog and I am so so excited about it! I'm sure you will be also as soon as you see those amazing, gorgeous colors featured! I love it and I can't wait for the spring to come. I decided to make an altered garden shovel with lots of Lindy's and some Prima embellishments, to bring you some warm spring memories in this cold winter temperatures and snow that we are having right now in lots of countries. Hope you'll like it.

Harry Potter altered Book of Spells

Hi dear crafty friends,

Today I'm with you with my last project as a Scrapiniec Design Team member. I can't believe how fast has this year gone by. It feels like my one-year term only just started and I'm allready sitting here writing a farewell DT post. But I do have a surprise for you that I will reveal in the next few days! :) 

I prepared for you today an altered Harry Potter Book of Spells. I had this project in my mind since I first saw the amazing "Believe in Magic" Scrapiniec collection. And since it didn't happen in this one year term, I decided that this would be my last DT project. I hope you'll like it! <3

"Poppy Love Field" Mixed Media Canvas

Hi dear crafty friends. It is still February, the month of Love and our color challenge here at Lindy's is perfect for it. So for my today's project on their blog I decided to stay on the same topic, just adding some twists to the monthly challenge colors. I've made a mixed media canvas in the shape of a heart with gorgeous Poppies. 

"Stand strong in Faith"

Hi dear crafty friends,

Some of you may noticed, that while I'm publishing new projects almost every day, I was absent for the last few days. Today it is the fourth hard day since we lost my dear dad due to a heart failure. This hit me really really hard, since I allready lost my dear mom not even two years ago due to a cancer. First days I was only sleeping and  running errands trying to take care of everything that needed to be done. But I haven't slept much at night. For the last two nights I've been laying in my bed, staring at the ceiling, trying to understand things, but just couldn't. I've been asking myself why all these evil things are happening and I remembered the story from the Bible how sin entered this world through Adam and Eve beeing tempted by a snake to be disobedient to God and eat an Apple from the tree of Knowledge of good and bad. They were week and did not have enough Faith in God and in the same way I've had issues with keeping Faith and staying strong. But the Bible says that God is faithful and He will not allow us to be tempted beyond what we are able, but will always make the way out of it, so that we will be able to bear it. As long as we Stand Strong in Faith. And from this my today's project was born, bringing me at least a small grain of strength to carry on in this hard days that are still before me. I hope you'll like it!

"Life is beautiful with you"

Hi dear friends,

I owe you one more post which I missed due to my father's death few days ago. Lindy's girls are Guest designing this month over at CSI challenge blog, which is all about layouts, so I made one too. The clues for the challenge were white background, floral pattern, hearts, birds, butterflies, leaves, flowers, animals, hand-drawn look and in the Moodboard photo there was this giant gorgeous chubby bear. I love the colors of the challenge which are so warm and spring-toned. On my layout I went with this gorgeous photos of a little girl playing with her teddybear and I used some gorgeous Lindy's Magicals on the white background. Hope you'll like it and it inspires you to make something yourself. Those cute little cut-out animals, flowers, sentiments are from two latest collections of Bob n Betty India.

"You are perfect" altered vintage mirror

Hi dear crafty friends. 

I'm so in love with this month's Moodboard inspiration over at Mixed media & Art blog challenge, but somehow I just didn't find that perfect idea that would fit! I had tons of it but with each one of them I felt something was missing. Until last night when I actually got the idea and could see the picture of the whole project so clearly in my head. So I could barely wait for today, to make it happen! I have three little children and two of them are girls. You know how things are with girls... they want to be pretty and admired and more they grow up the bigger is their need to get noticed. This are their dreams. So I was inspired to make a vintage shabby chic altered mirror covered with gorgeous flowers and a quote saying "perfect". Our little princesses should know that they are perfect!

"The Story of us - A Love Story" altered vinyl record

Hello dear crafty friends. I'm so happy to be with you again today sharing a project I made with one of my favourite Bob n Betty collections so far - the new Valentines collection "You n I". I love the ilustration in it, I love the color combinations, I love the wordings that come as a special sheet. It is such a perfect collections for so many occasions and so many projects. I decided that my first project I'll be making with it would be an altered vinyl record. I love the result and hope you'll like it too!

"True Love Never Dies" mixed media tags

Hi dear crafty friends!

I'm on Scrapiniec blog today again and since it is February... a month of Love, I decided to prepare two untipical Love tags, using gorgeous Scrapiniec Steampunk collection. I made them look like "rusty and old Love" but gave her wings to still be able to fly. When time goes by, when gears keep moving the clock's pointers around, the true Love still grows stronger and stronger and flies higher and higher.

"Believe in Fairie Dust" art journal page
