Just a quick one today as I have so much to do here at home....
A little while ago I won "The ScrapCake" "One Moment in Time" from Leslie at C'est Magnifique Kits.
A couple of posts down you can see the first layout I made, and now I have made one more.
I haven't allowed myself much scrappy time the last week so I have been stealing some moments here and there; and this is what I came up with:
The "One Moment in Time" collection is very toned down as far as pattern and colour go and maybe an unusual choice for me, but the fairly neutral colours allow you to add some favourite colours and they are quite fun to work with. The colours are pink, teal and browns all mixed up. Pretty!
I added some beautiful Prima blooms and other flowers from my stash. There are quite a few fussy cut flourishes here cut from the patterned paper.

Here are some close ups too, as usual ;
These letter stickers are some older vinyl Thickers from American Crafts. The glue is sort of melting on them so I have used ordinary quick glue to stick them down.
I have distressed most of my elements and inked areound them with one of Ingvild Bolme's fantastic ink pads. She designed some ergometric tools etc for Prima Marketing and the ink pads are part of that collection. They are just so easy to use. They have a grip that makes them so easy to hold. I have used the colour called "worn jeans"
In the next photo you will see I used a "Crafter's Workshop" template 'chickenwire'.
I love these masks both for misting and painting. This time however I did not feel like whipping out all the mists and paints so I just inked over the stencil with an ordinary small ink pad.
I like how it came out, -and no cleaning!
Even here I used the ink pad to ink over a quarter of a doily that I temporarily placed in the corner.
A neat effect!
I am off to do some more spring cleaning of the second floor.
We are getting some new beds and I have so much to clear out..(Too much scrapping , -not enough housekeeping...lol)
Before I go I'll just show you a pic of Ingvild's ink pad:
As always if you leave a message and let me know you were here I will come and visit you soon!
Thanks for taking the time to visit me today.

ReplyDeleteLove the softly chalked chicken wire, you know how I adore these colours - makes my heart sing of joy looking at your beautiful page Bente! love how the papers take a back seat but still work as a fab backdrop for all the pretties. Hur gick det med vårstädningen ;)) min rensning avstannade när orken tröt, nu ser det ännu värre ut än innan. Lär få vänta tills sommarsemestrarna innan jag slutför det hela. Kram
