I day dream, when Wiola and I walk and think about how it would be if we where to start competing in Rally, if we where to move, build our own house. If I could make a living, doing what I love. We all have different things we go around thinking about, what we would do if...

So I thought I would take a moment to document just what I'm dreaming about now at 22.

The page is quite simple, not much product but I wanted to keep it light, let the background show. 

The kraft cardstock is painted with white and a grey acrylic paint and then silver splatters. I thought it looked like a sky and how perfect is the for the "head in the blue" so I draw some clouds and stitched. That took longed then I care to admit but I love it!  

 This page is one of my favorite, so many elements coming together, like this tag. I wanted a tag with the title so i stamed using the oh-so-cute stamp set from Paiper Projekt, a dymo word and subtile is a strip from Tim Holtz "small talk". 

 What is with the animals here, every time!! 

But she really is cute, isn't she!

Keeping the photo cluster light and small means that the background will have a bigger role. Here I really get the feeling of night and dreams without it being a dark or heavy background. I hope you like this page and that it inspired you to document your day dreams!

Hello and happy Friday to you all! I have a new layout that was inspired by Wilna.
I love how light and fun this layout is. using 6x6 paper in a new way and creating that lightness between papers and photo with those butterflies. So what I take with me is the the layout as a hole the colors I will change and do something different for the transition.

Here is her process video check it out and if you already have; let´s get in to it!







So the papers that I went with is from Crate Paper and it´s the Best Of 180 papers. I took 6 Maggie Holmes papers and cut them down to 6x6 and the rest to 6x2,5.  The white cardstock I mated on this grey zebra stripped paper from the same pad. (don´t know from witch collection)

 I wanted this to be really light and fun so I took 3 super tiny doilys, wrinkled them up and sicked them down with pearl brads. The butterflies I cut out by hand and not very good... But some sequins makes everything better!

 The vellum lable is from Crate Paper- Notes & Things Ephemera pack  and I just wrote my name and on the stripes below I printed from my computer things I love to do. I took a font that looks like a old typewriter and  them colored in grey. I think black would have been to much.

 This layout don´t have allot of dimension but distressing the edges makes a huge differences! I would love to have sewed it down but my sewing machine has taking a break and will not wake up... If you catch my drift...

 I´m so happy with this "flowers" the doilys are light, airy and so me!

 It wouldn´t be a Wilna page without paint splatter, here I took a light pink and a rich teal that matches the rose-steams in the 6x6 paper.

I so love the page and I hope yo like it too! Don´t forget to check out the process videos (all videos in the Project Wilna series are HERE)

I hope that you´ll have a great weekend and to see you next Friday for part 5!

Hello!
Just as I was finished with the kit I saw a scrap piece of a Basic Grey paper and just had to make a final ting with it! So I made a birthday card.   Check out the video here!

The image is a Crissy Armsrtong stamp I colored a while back with distress markers.

A really simple card to make but so cute! I just love how the colors work together and that carrot really pops!

I hope you liked the card, and THAT is the end of the august-scrap-kit!

Hello!

I´m back with a new layout using my august-scrap-kit! This layout was inspired by a spread in a magazine, the pastel colors with the black

The kit was put together with a vintage and shabby chic feel in mind but picking put some colors and going with a white cardstock can change everything!


              Here is the video!


So light yellow, blue and pink with black accents. I used a stamp from the optimist stamp collection from Prima to stamp a border around the edge. The paper-layers are put around the photo in like a T-shape to help draw the eye.

I used the same blue glitter-letters from the previous layout together with my dymo and black letter. The resins are from a mod pogde  resin mold, painted with white paint and distress ink.

 I just couldn´t stay away from the black lace washi-tape but it just works with everything!

I hope you like the layout and don´t forget to check out the video: HERE

Hello!

So the other day I was looking trough my desk draws and happened to find an old 8*8 album about my late horse, Barock. It only had 3 layouts and I thought that it would be fun to finish it. Now I haven´t worked on a 8*8 sens I started on this album and that was years ago, so that was the first challenge. And the second I think is rather obvious...
 Starting on an album about someone that you loved so much and now have past away is really hard, especially when this album is already started on. Bu now I really wanted to finish it and I think that no matter how hard I try I will never be 100% happy with is.
 So I just told myself that I  was just going to play with the photos that I had and anything will be better then nothing.  So I packed up my little blue basket, added a 8*8 pad and 2 6*6 pad took my camera and went out side.

This layout you see me starting on in the video but my camera cuts it of. So this photo already had a layout that I decided to take apart. I like this one better with the black and the colors I used on the other layouts.

 This one I went with a more green feel with some orange.

 This is the layout that I started on, it´s my favorite photo of him and I wanted it really clean so just a white background and a blue paper that I made with distress markers. The juornaling tag is from Primas "Sea shore" 3*4 and I just stuck it under so the boat is hidden.

 Using that same paper and embellishments makes it so easy to create different layout that tie together. Here is that 8*8 paper as base (I have know idea what the pad is called but it´s very pink, green and blue) than a 4*6 atc from prima "sea shore", doily and that black lace washi-tape. Simple layout where the atc card also work as the title.

 This layout the camera cut out too... But same though, 8*8 as base, doily and black. That {create memories} is from a prima packaging. and the camera from rhonna design app.

So I have 5 more layout to make and I have put some photos in my "photos to print" folder. But so far I really like it, just going to add the journaling but I think I will wait for that till I have the other layouts. I´m glad that I found this and that I have started to work on it. I hope you like it and that you like the VIDEO, have great day

The other day I found some long lost Prima stamps of two chandeliers. Sense they had been gone for so long I just wanted to stamp them to see how they would work, so I took some scrap-craft paper and stamped... And just like that I had begun a patterned: one up, one down in lines. And you can´t tell that is is chandeliers at the fist glance, just a really cool graphic patterned!





So naturally I wanted to use my new amazing paper and decided to make a card, sens it´s been so long. So with two papers from My Mind´s Eye- Portobello Road, a doily, some washi-tape and Lindy´s stamp gang- Moon shadow ink in "Smoky Sapphire" I got started!

 All of the pearls and stones are from Magnolias; "Knick Knackery´s. I love how they look on this simple card and mixed together.

 The butterflies are stamps from Prima and Panduro and are embossed with Magnolia´s Black- fine embossing powder. They are stamped on the same paper as the mat to the chandelier- paper and the Magnolia label. This brings in the black, witch add some contrast, and the dark teal color that is so pretty!

 The roses, the patterned paper and details on Tilda is painted with "Smoky Sapphire" it´s such a pretty ink there is taupe and when light hits it: it´s the most amazing light-blue lilac. Tilda her self is colored with distress marker in "Pumice stone".

Good morning!
Today I have a layout from my cuisines 7th birthday.
The layout is made only with papers and cut-outs from "All That Is Spring" and some hot pink twain.

 And a doily, but everything else is from the collection.

 I wanted to add some demention in this very flat layout so I tore the paper and then sawed it together.

The title came from this photo that I edited in the Rhonna Design App  I´m so in love with that app! I never buy apps but after seeing it everywhere and longing for it for moth I bought it, and I´m so happy that I did!

 Love Julia

Happy Monday! Today I have a new layout to show you that I really like!

I used allot of scraps from Graphic 45 and some new papers from Prima- Time Traveler but the background is Basic Grey.

 This lady I have saved for year and finely I cut her out and put her on a layout, and I´m so happy that I did that. And sense I´m so in love with here I gave her some Prima-bling on here skirt.

 More Prima-bling with cut outs from Prima and Graphic 45 with some washitape.

 The title: "Blue eyed girl" in Panduro letters and of course my true love: Dymo.

This layout has allot of layers but isn´t very dimensional. I tryed out some new things; Cuting out the photo, working on a smaller area and not using flower! The last one was hard but I found the Rose-paper in the Time traveler pad!

I hope you like it

Love Julia
