'My first Home' for Blue Fern Studios.

Recently I posted a few pages on the Blue Fern Studios blog.

I was in the UK last week celebrating my eldest daughters graduation from university and must admit I am a little behind wity posting my projects here on my own personal blog,....But here is one of them !!

This page is based upon a pink paper from the Montage collection. 

On top is a paper from the Deja Vu collection. As yo can see the collections mix very well.

-Especially when you add a litttle mixed media here and there. :-)
I 'framed' the whole page with the largest sized Graduated Squares, painted white then inked around.

 The gorgeous piece of chipboard below the picture is one of the recent shapes and called

  Rock Wall Bits. I painted it beige, stamped on it and added some pink glitter. 

The part of the Grunge Frames chipboard piece visible above the photo was given the same treatment. 

I just love to add glitter to my pages at the moment :-)

The cute small dots scattered all over my page are the insides of then alpha stickers that I used.

Finally a better look at the Prima resin by Ingvild Bolme. It is such  a beautiful and decorative piece!!

That was all for now, Hope you feel a little bit inspired and that I'll  see you here again soon!

Take care!

'Family Fun' Scraps of Elegance using Graphic 45 Botanical Tea.

 Hi peeps and happy 'hump day'. From here on it's just a downhill ride to the weekend.

Today I want to share one of my pages that I did using the Graphic 45 collection 'Botanical Tea' 

that was in my latest DT kit from awesome Scraps of Elegance.

I have shared a couple of pages already in some previous posts here and the kit has sooo much more left for me to create with! If you are interested in subscribing to a kit look HERE.

This is what I made:

 The resin bannister is from the embellishment add on. I fussy cut a lot of flowers from the beautiful patterned papers. and also added some mini roses from Papirdesign and from Prima.

The photo is from an outing last summer when my sister and niece came to visit and we wanted to do something fun for all of us. We went to ride a kind of tandem bike on old (no longer in use) railroad tracks. It was really so much fun. I want to do it again this summer!!

The pink gardnia used to be white, but I painted it with the Silks 'Pink Grapefruit' from a previous kit.

 I added a large blue bow to tie together the small blue accents here and there on my page.

 

Here is a shot of the February kit. 

Unfortunately the main kit is sold out but you may be able to get some of the add ons still.

 

So happy you came over today to have a peek at my latest page. Enjoy the rest of your Wednesday!!

Hugs!

'You are my Happy' for Papirdesign

Hi, I'm back to share a little something I made recently for Norwegian Papirdesign.
I have been a bit of a slacker during August and have not posted much here on my personal blog:-) .

I picked out an older photo of my youngest and wanted to make a page with fall feling to it. Hopefully we will still have some good Summer-days, but early mornings you can definitely feel a little nip in the air that tells us the seasons will change soon.

I have used a mix of older and newer collections here.

That is one of the many good things about Papirdesign; it all goes together so well :-)

I think you can see that I based my design on this lovely sketch from Cest Maqnifique.

I did not bother so very much that everything would be in the right position as I wanted a more 

carefree feel to the page. Although I did start out using a sketch.

A closer look:

Of course I had to use some of the gorgeous mini roses!!

For my title I used the lovely alphabetsickers in two different colours.

Apart from the roses and stickers I used mainly two sheets of papers and they are:

PD 10532 Treverk

PD12648 Sommerfugler

Klem/ Hugs,

Bente
