WW1 and Scrap&Music

Hi Scrappers! After a busy week I had finally some time take some pictures of my latest creations :) I used the sketch from Scrap&Music #21 and the color scheme by the WW1 february challenge.

And that's my mixed media creation! I used the faded dot mask by Tim Holtz with modeling paste and a second flourish mask with gel medium. Besides I sprayed my background with two shades of grape and stamped different textures in black to create a kind of cluster.

I'm not such a big fan of wahsi tape (just because I never know where to use it ^^), but this layout was the perfect opportunity to use some of it. I added a bit of baker's twine, too.

The butterfly is made out of resist canvas by Prima.

For the first time, I cut out my photos and replaced the background with a cool resist paper. I colored with my Gelatos with matching shades.

And that's a close-up of my background work. I colored my wood veneers with Glimmer mist and added some tiny dots with liquid pearls. 

And here's my inspiration:

Thank you for stopping by and have a great weekend! :)

Beautiful Garden Layout

TGIF Scrappers! :)

Did you have a great week? I was quiet busy this week and I haven't had any time for crafting. But tonight I went on and did a new layout for the MyCreativeSketches November Challenge. I was looking for two matching bw pictures and found some of our garden. Well, it's not really "ours" but from my parents in law :) Anyway, I like these two photos and the garden of my mother in law is really beautiful. She did everything on her own; she even built the little walls all by herself! Well, she did a great job :) 

and here's my take on the November sketch: 

For the background I used Prima payer from the Art Journal Collection. It just looks like real crackle paint! :) I did the bricks with a mask from crafters workshop using some molding paste and acrylic color in soft red. The other papers were some leftovers and are from DCWV the Mariposa collection. 

The fence die was from MemoryBox. It's very delicate and was little bit difficult to cut. The alphas are from Authentique. 

Oh my gosh, I did here some fuzzy cutting which took me like million years ^^ But it was worth it and I love the result. The flowers and the fairy are from a G45 die cut. 

Above I covered the bricks with some InkaGold in copper.

And this is how their sketch looks like:

Hope you like it! 

Thanks for watching and stopping by;

and wishing you a fantastic weekend!
