Yes, if a tag is big enough, it becomes a home decor. Place it on a coffee table, on a shelf, or hang it on the door! This tag was inspired by autumn, pumpkins, mushrooms, moss...  Watch the video to see some fun things and effects you can achieve with dry pastels and texture paste! 

In our Ephemera series, here  are vintage style overhead slides, and this time we are capturing snowflakes in them! Click here or on on the omages to see the step by step tutorial on how to create this wonderful embellishment for your art jornal, junk journal, or mini album! 

Sligtly unusual Halloween art journal page, it is a little bit dark to convey the mood of these days. Click here to see the full turorial for your inspiration or on the image bellow. Please watch, and be inspired! 

The colors of autumn are fading, the grey November slowly takes over... Therefore I tried to capture the last joyful colors of autumn in this tag. Click here or on the images to see the full tutorial, and be inspired to create something! 

aOf course, yes! I received the Papercraft Society' s box 11, and the unusual autumn colors inspired me to do just that! See the video here and get inspired! Did I mention that I even used the paper in which the goodies were wrapped? :-)

This page I created for a Facebook Mission Impossible group. The subject given by Mike Deakin was " Go Nuts". I decided to show different nuts, and for that I used two of my favorite artsy things in the world: watercolors and botanical drawing. Aside from watercolors I also used some stamps and black waterproof marker. That was it! I am very happy with the result! By the way, can you spot a nut that does not belong here? :-) 

 It was a looooong wait! But it certainly turned out to be worth it! It is packed with supplies for your card making, mixed media projects and crafty makes. In this video you will see what is inside the box and one of the many things you can make with the cutting dies, stamps and papers included in this box. Enjoy and get isnpired! 

A happy anf sunny, and joyous art journal entry this time! To see a tutorial, how it was made using Brusho powders and Inktence pencils, click here or on the immages below. I hope it gives some inspiration for your next art journal page!

This art journal page was inspired by folkart animal paintings. Calm, simple composition, but pensive at the same time.  I used a rather untraditional Brusho pigment powder and gesso technique for the background, and several types of pencils for the focal point of the page. Click here or in the image below to see everything in detail! I hope it will inspire you to create a folkart inspired page in your own art journal!

Do you remember all those Easter mixed media supplies I got from LaBlanche? Those Easter bunnies which looked serious and not cutesy cute? And the amazing very detailed stamps? I used them to make this mixed media tag! To see the step by step tutorial on how to make this tag, click here or on the image below. 

This mixed media mini album is made from gell prints and vintage photos. It includes inserts that can be use as gift tags, bookmarks or just as little joy-to-look-at objects. Click on the immage to see al the details of this little delightful album! 

This album features vintage photos of gentlemen, this one, holding a flower, is one of my favorites.

This album is quite small and it comes with its own box.

This art journal was a labour of love. It has seven (yes, seven!) signatures, they are sewn into a rounded spine: It is dedicated to one of the greatest criminal novelists Dorothy L. Sayers, and to her book "The Seven Taylors". As you know, Tailors were bells; and it was a joy to find examples of the bell sheet music! 
And there is more than at first meets the eye. Dedicated to a criminal novel, this art journal has a secret of its own. What is the secret? All is revealed in the video!

Today is a beautiful, bright, sunshiny day! And it inspired me to create a card with a stained glass effect. It features my favorite cutting die: Poppy Seed Head Aperture Die by ClarityStamp. You can find it here, should you wish to create a similar card.  

Just look at the beautiful reflection! The stained glass effect comes to life in the bright sunshine.

Some time last year I did a mixed media piece to reflect the pain I felt about missing my dad. I used an image of a poppy seed head, which for me represented the loss and emptiness. I knew then, that I wanted to return to this idea, and I wanted to create a sympathy card for those who felt the same way. When I saw this poppy cutting die from ClarityStamp, I knew how I was going to do it. The quote comes from a poem. 

This 15x15cm mixed media piece was done for the #artfulevidence weekly challenge. I used two of my favorite mixed media products in this piece: Baked Texture embossing powders by Seth Apter (in my book this artist is a genius!) and a Gummiapan stamp. Their stamps are unique and original, but at the same time they are quite versatile and will serve you for more than one  project (disclimer: I am not in any way linked to these companies, I honestly love what they are creating!).
