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.

My first ever digi LO

This is a digi layout I made following the sketch over at Crafting Ireland. This is my first ever digi LO, but I have to say I enjoyed doing it a lot. I used a free digi kit, I downloaded from Everyday Mom Ideas.


Photos were taken at my mum's birthday this week, and we used photocabine.com

Missing in action

Hi everyone, I'm back again. I was missing in action. There were lots and lots of things happening and I hardly had any time to do some crafts. I made a card for a wedding. It was a very quick card ;)

This is the real clean and simple. It's not really my style, but it turned out OK. I couldn't resist some texture, so I placed the sentiment onto little foam squares.
Thanks for visiting me,

PS: don't forget about Crafting Ireland Issue 4 is out on 19th September ;)

Memories from Dublin

Hi all, I want to show you today a mini I made ages ago. It had been sitting on my shelf for long before I gave it to a friend last weekend. I used October aftrenoon papers and stickers. I haven't decorated it too much, so she can put lots of photoes in it. I made some pics. (Sorry for the quality of the pics :(, I have taken the photoes with my phone and seems my hand was a bit shaky)





 I hope you like it thanks for visiting,

#4 from 30 LOs

Hi all, today is the day when I show you my fourth layout of the 30. This layout was inspired by Donna Downey's Inspirational Wednesday. Just put the colours where it feels good, don't think too much,  just play with the media you have. I did so.


It's a bit different in colour, as I don't use too much of pinks and purples.
So, do you like it?
