News!

Hi All, I have been missing in action completely. I don't know where January has gone. I went to Hungary to visit my friends and family and to celebrate my 30th birthday. Life is just going to be very busy now for another while still with this moving into my new apartment.
But there are things happened in the meantime:
1. Crafting Ireland Issue 7 is out!!! Have a look here. Full of inspiration just for you.
Here are two of the projects I made:

Kicsit eltűntem, tudom, de annyi minden volt egyszerre: Magyarországra látogattam, új lakásba költözöm... Lényeg, hogy most újra itt vagyok és egy két új hírrel szolgálhatok:
1. Crafting Ireland magazin 7. száma megjelent, megnézhetitek itt:  Crafting Ireland Magazine
itt is van két alkotásom, amiről részletesen is olvashattok a magazinban.

And then also very interesting that I got chosen to be a part of the Creative Team over at Yabo. This is a Hungarian company manufacturing chipboard albums and other crafty goodness. Have a look at their blog and checkout all the new team-members' blogs too.

Egy másik érdekes hír, hogy beválasztottak a Yabo Creative Team-jébe, úgyhogy Yabo lány lettem :D. Nagyon megtisztelő a feledat, és remélem, hogy sok érdekes technikával és ötlettel tudom majd színesíteni az Alkotós blogot.

This is me for now, hopefull I will be back soon.

Day 3

Hi all, this is my tag for day 3. I really like the bonus project so decided to create a tag with similar look.

I used some blue distress inks and stamped the snowflakes on the tag. I decorated it with tulle and charms. This was a real easy but great technique.

Day 2

Hi all, here I am with the second tag.

I think it was a bit more challenging for me today than yesterday. But anyway it turned out OK.

I used kraft resist paper from the original kraft resist pad. I covered the tag with picket fence stain and then stamped a few snowflakes in blue and embossed them with clear embossing powder. I stamped and embossed pine trees as well. I cut a chipboard house and covered it with sticky back canvas. Then I decorated with some words and charms.

Let's see what tomorrow will bring,

12 tags of Christmas

Hi all, over at Crafting Ireland, Nicole decided to go and join in the fun creating all the 12 tags of Christmas. I said I would try and join in too, but you know me, I'm not a regular blogger. Anyway I try my best.
So this is what I came up with after seeing Tim's tag:

Since I haven't got the pine cone die, I tried to look for something that I can use for doing the pine cone. So I found the Spellbinders Blossom 2 die and made the cone with it.
I cut the greenery by hand and also used some punches.
Hopefully I'm back tomorrow with another tag,

Winter village advent calendar

Hi All, I just want to share with you the 3D advent calendar I created using the beautiful Basic Gray Nordic Holiday papers.

This is a big project but I really enjoyed assembling all the little houses. I wrote a tutorial on it in Crafting Ireland Issue 5.

I hope you like it, thanks for stopping by,

World's Card Making Day - bit delayed :)

Hi all, I want to show you a card that I made for World's Card Making Day, 1st October. It was published on Crafting Ireland's blog, but I never got around to show it to you too. It is with a technique that I had to try. I saw something very similar on Ellen Huston's Classroom, so I made my own version of it. What you need is your Promarkers and Alcohol blending solution from Ranger. I coloured in a grid with different colours from the same colour family and when dried just dropped some of the blending solution on it. After I stamped the car and added some doodles with white pen on the black paper. That's it. It was a real quick make.

Hope you like it :)

Tomorrow I'm off to Harrogate, England to participate in Dina Wakley's workshop :D Can't wait.
