 Hi lovely creative peeps, 

Hope you are having a warm & sunny day here in my part of the world spring is not breaking through yet! So for this post I made a couple of happy spring feeling tags sometimes it's very therapeutic to just make tags and fussy cut a little in front of the tv. My first tag is with a picture of my husband and I the 20th of this month we had our 12 year wedding anniversary.

The ATC banner was just altered with some white gesso and some wax. On the word arrow I added three layers of white embossing powder to create a thick layer.

Love Your Gorgeous Smile Embroidery Hoop for *2Crafty Chipboard* & Playing at *Lindy's Gang March 2024 Color Challenge*!!!

 Hello my lovely friends, 

I am so happy you are visiting my blog today for this post I made a embroidery hoop. I really enjoy working with all the pretty chipboard pieces by 2Crafty Chipboard. For this hoop I have of course used a photo of Abbey and I wanted to give you all a spring feeling with my hoop. Enjoy my post....

Love Your Gorgeous Smile:

2Crafty Chipboard used:

Your Smile is Like Sunshine
Fine Word Set 2

I gave all the chipboard pieces two coats of white gesso and then I altered them in different ways. The title "Your Smile" was coloured with several matte acrylic paints and the word "Gorgeous"  I gave two layers of white embossing powder to make it a little shiny. I also did that with the arrow and the word "Love"

For the dotted circle frame I also altered it with matte acrylic paint & spray paints and when that was dry I added flatback crystals to match my embroidery hoop. The swirls and leaves are treated with some sprays, metallique paints & posca pens in different colours. I finished of my hoop by adding some white spray.

"Little Spring Moment" Mixed Media Panel Playing at ***Graphic 45*** & ***Mixed Media Place***!!

 Hello my lovely friends, 

I had a little fun playing with a older Graphic 45 collection named "Botanical Tea" this collection is one from the year 2014. It has beautiful soft toned colors and happy spring fussycut elements. For this project I have used a canvas 30 by 24cm and I have reversed it on top of that I added a emboidery hoop which I placed on the right top side of the canvas. On both I have used papers from that collection and a stencil by finnabair. 

Little Spring Moment: 

I used a flower spray by 49and market and the rest of the flowers are by Prima Marketing they really fitted well with my project & the pretty papers I have used. On the outer sides of my canvas & emboidery hoop I added some paper texture paste which I let dry for a night before I added some waxes on it. 

The chipboard pieces I have used are by 2Crafty Chipboard and I only added some white gesso to it and some embossing powder. For this project I have used a whole bunch of moulds which I love to use on most of my projects {for sure I am totally hooked} In the end I added some cute little dotted feathers to my work. 

With this project I will be entering two challenges the first one is from 

#G45Spring at the blog here: Graphic 45 blog

and the second challenge is at the Mixed Media Place Blog 1st 2023 Quarterly Challenge

This mood board spoke to me in many ways I really loved the soft tones in it and also the pretty elements I was inspired by the blossoms, blue ski, pink curtains, birds & eggs. So this wasn't very hard to create. 

Mixed Media Place products used: 

Thank you so much for visiting my blog I sure hope you like my work as much as I love making them. 
Stay happy & creative

Happiness Layout for ***Maja Design***

Goodmorning lovelies,

Spring is in the air and I love it....it's my favorite time in the year because now summer is really nearby. I really enjoyed the latest mood board from Maja Design did you already enter the challenge? If not I will have some inspiration for you using the beautiful mood board. It has beautiful greens and blues in it and such a romantic vibe....that I really enjoyed creating this layout as I do with all of my Maja Design projects.

Happiness: 

I cut the The magnificent Flowerstreet bs sheet in half and placed it on top of the 6th of March bs sheet! Then I added some sprays, stamps and paste on my layout. All the chipboard pieces are by Dusty Attic and I gessod them all, and some of them I embossed and others I added some rust past & mini prills on.

This is the lovely mood board......sight...so pretty don't you think so too we would love for you to enter. Here are my close ups: 

The flowers I used are by several manufacturers. I really loved the text on the mood board that's why I added it on my work in papers strips that I just printed out on my computer. I won a wonderful prize last month at a challenge site with all 13 Arts products and the hugh glass circle I added on top of the "happiness" disk is one of them.

Maja Design papers used: Vintage Spring Basics: 6th of March bs {my b-day} Sofiero: The elegant Wine house, The magnificent Flowerstreet bs and Monochromes-shades of Sofiero: Mono Air Sky bs
