I greet you today with two cards made for a wedding occasion. This was quite a work-intensive project, it took me three days to finish them. This is because I was struggling to arrange the space... But let's start from the beginning. My customer's expectations were quite clear: A maroon colour mixed with gold, with a reference to an Indian vibe, as the bride and groom have just such roots. I hadn't yet done an assignment with such a style, so it took me a while to go through my supplies in the workshop in search of matching elements. The paper is by Craft Sensations, embossed with a 3D embossing folder from Sizzix and then I highlighted the design very lightly with gold wax. The edges are sewn on the machine with my favourite stitch. The cards have hangers at the top with a delicate white ribbon. The main feature is, of course, the couples in love cut from the 'Romantic Moments' collection extras from Margaret Mycraftime. I've placed them on beautifully decorate...

   Hi there, Today I present a card made to order on the occasion of a 40th birthday for a woman who loves lions. When I heard the expectations from the client I knew almost immediately what to do with it. It's not always so easy for me to design the artwork, so I'm even more pleased about that. With the colour scheme I was helped by the ongoing moodboard challenge on the  Dusty Attic 's blog - totally awesome for me! I write you about it every time, so you definitely know you can take part too. There's a pack of  Dusty Attic 's chippies to be won - go for it! The base is a beige DL cardoard, distress-covered, and I've also distressed most of the elements to meet another client's wish for a vintage-style card. On the first layer of decorative paper you can see some washi tape, which sticks out from under the corrugated cardboard. I like this touch in my scrapbooking work, so some time ago I stocked up on whole sheets, which you can also find in the  Dusty A...

  Witajcie! Pokazuję dziś zawieszki akrylowe w kształcie serca, które zrobiłam dla swoich córek. Jest to moje pierwsze podejście do takiej formy pamiątki a pomysł wzięłam od Karoliny z pracowni Fanaberriess . Karolinka to kolejna perełka w naszym zespole projektowym - prowadziła spotkanie na żywo na grupie "Margaret MyCRAFTime & YOU" tworząc właśnie takie dekoracje. U niej jedna ma kształt tradycyjnej bombki, a druga to także serce. Live jest zapisany i kto chętny, może dołączyć do grupy i obejrzeć. A warto, bo Karola pokazuje tam rozwiązania, które przy pierwszym podejściu do tej formy artystycznej mogą przysporzyć nieco frustracji.
