Treasuring Memories

Hello!! So excited to share with you my first design team project for 7Dots Studios .  My page is about my lovely niece Fabiola, she is a very special fun girl.."Miss personality" and I chose the beautiful and fun Messy Head collection by Olga Heldwein to work it because this collection reminds me her... My tittle is a die cut element from the "All I Ever" collection. I created the background work with a DCWV stencil and molding paste. I cut out all these arrows from the "Big words" paper from Messy Head collection. These feathers are handmade and you can see the video tutorial...

Hi!! This is a canvas that I made with the new Coffee in the Arbour collection by Maja Design .  When I saw these papers I remembered a quote that my grandma used to say... and it brought me lovely memories of my childhood. So I used the phrase for the canvas! These lovely chipboard are from 2Crafty .  The papers are The Lemon meringue pie and the Delicious Moments. I framed the lemonade illustration from the Delicious Moments paper with this pretty circular frame from 2Crafty chipboard .  I added textures with molding paste and DCWV stencil and gave color with Shimmerz Sprintz (Chick-a dee, Tuscan Sun)colors.

Hello!! How is your summer so far? I've been disconnected  lately, I had my brother and sister in law with their families here and I took a vacation with all the family, we had  a wonderful time together. Here's my take of the July moodboard at  Scrap Around The World . This month the fabulous moodboard was designed by the lovely  Tusia Lech  from Poland and I was inspired by the dandelion photo to create my page.  This page is  a lovely memory of my kids, I found my boy(almost 5 years old) that climbed in the crib with his sister(she was one year old) and he told me that she wanted to play...I took this photo of the moment, how times flies... the photo of the dandelion symbolizes for me. July moodboard Tusia Lech My paper is from Basic Grey that I combined with the Tim Holtz' tissue wrap-Terminology. I used a DCWV stencil with homemade molding paste and for more texture I added mesh tape, strips of tissue paper, pearls, stamps, cheesecloth and cr

Hello scrapper friends!  I made this page with the new collection by Maja Design "Coffee in the Arbour".  It is another gorgeous collection, beautiful paper designs with lovely colors.  My lovely niece Sabrina had her first recital, she was so happy and excited.  My sister sent me some pictures and when I saw it, I knew I had to work them with this beautiful collection.  My tittle is this pretty chipboard by 2Crafty . I worked with two different stencils: one for Prima and the other from Heidi Swap. Prima flower, CTMH buttons. I chose for my page the "Flourishing garden" and "Let share a cookie" papers. I used Shimmerz Sprintz/ Vibes and Faber Castle- Gelatos. Here's the beautiful collection that you can see ..... HERE For more inspirations with Maja Design paper.... BLOG Thanks for your visit!!!

Hello!!! I've been asked to make a product review by Rizzy at Thermomorph weeks ago. It is a unique product called ThermoMorph which consists of moldable plastic pellets that you heat up and mold in any shape or form. You are able to instantly fix things, make things, and sculpt thing...the uses are endless. My first concern was if it has odors or emanates vapors once I heat it the plastics up, and I can tell you that it is a safe product. It doesn't emanate any vapors or odors. It was so easy work with, you only need to put the pellets in the hot water, wait about two minutes and it turns transparent when it is ready to work with. But you have to work quickly because it dries fast. A detail I liked is that can also reuse all the leftovers from when you use it, which makes it very convenient and efficient.  Feathers are trendy lately in scrapbooking and I wanted to make a project using them. I didn't have any so I made my own feathers using this product and I love the

Today I'm sharing with you my first design team project for "Tresors de Luxe" . I get out of my comfort zone this time and I come with gold and lilac colors, I was a little fearful because I'm not a fan of shining things but I love the final result. Here is my dear Paola when she was starting to give her first steps some years ago. I started my page with a DCWV stencil and some homemade molding paste. The beautiful paper is from  7DOTS- "All I Ever" collection.   The beautiful gold lace and flowers are from  Tresors de Luxe. I worked with Shimmerz Vibes (Princess color) and  the new Prima Color Blooms (gold color) These pretty flowers are from Tresor de Luxe... My tittle and hearts are from 7DOTS - Elements from Illuminations collection and the stamp from Cold Country collection. You should see all the beauties that Lucy has in her shop...go HERE Tresor de Luxe blog...... HERE Have a great weekend!!! Hugs! Marilyn
