Something blue for Lemoncraft.

Hi there. This is turning out to be some seriously beautiful Springafternoon!! 

I shouldn't really be inside, but I am trying to get the last things sorted before I move to my new appartment in a couple of days.! I still have not caught up as far as posting my projects here

 so I thought I'd share a page I did for Lemoncraft a little while back.

 I used papers from the lovely and delicate 'Forget Me Not' collection that is predominantly a gorgeous blue colour.It's got beautiful flowery patterns as well. It's a favourite :-)

I used a die that Tim Holtz designed for Sizzix to make the rosette flower (below) and did some cute paper rolling to add some extra interest to my page. Some of the pretty flowers are sold by Lemoncraft and others are by Prima or Papirdesign.

The chipboard title and other bits here are by Blue Fern Studio and I treated them with some paint, mist and gesso. On top I added some liquid pearls.

 I am a very big fan of the stecil that Finnabair made for Prima. It's like a mini checkerbpoard. I could use it on almost all my pages,...( and probably do,..lol!)

Stickers are by Papirdesign., but October Afternoon make similar ones. 

What's so great with these are that they have all the odd and special letters you'll find in the Scandinavian alphabet and that's just so cool!!

That was all for now!! 

I hope you like this and thanks for any comm ents in advance. 

I love to read your little messages! :-)

Take care!! 

My first post for Polish company Lemoncraft

Today I am happy to share the two very first pages I made with the delightful products from the Polish manufacturer Lemoncraft. I made two pages for this inaugural post and they are pretty different in style and execution. Mostly I used the latest collection 'Forget Me Not'.

I created a shabby page with a picture of our family cat. She is such a cutie!

 I cut strips of paper and stitched them to the patterned paper. Then I painted them with mist and gesso  as well as distressed them.

   

On my background I used gesso and a stencil as well as mist and paint. For extra decoration I added liquid pearls.

And now for my second page which is more romantic and 'elegant' compared to the previous one.

The detailed Lemoncraft papers are excellent for fussy cutting. That is one of the things I like so much about them,...apart from being beautiful of course... I took advantage of the patterns of the different papers to create this page. The different designs really go so well together.

Some close ups of this page:

 I layered elements from different papers in the 'Forget Me Not' collection and used pop dots between some layers. I used one of the new Sizzix dies to make some flowers and butterfies as well.

I cut out one of the labels from the A4 sheet with matching designs.
Then I emellished it with some liquid pearl and used it as my title spot.

One of my buttons had a pretty butterfly on it so I thought it would look good with all the other butterflies.

 Thank you for visiting us here on the Lemoncraft blog today! Hope to see you soon again!
