DT Work: Shine STM 34

Die neue Challenge bei Scrapping The Music ist da – diese Woche das Lied Shine von Anna Nalick – ein sehr schönes Lied. Und die Layouts die meine Designteamkollegen gemacht haben sind großartig. Ich kann es kaum erwarten zu sehen, wie Ihr Euch von dem Song inspirieren lasst!

The new Challenge is up at Scrapping The Music – this week we have the song Shine by Anna Nalick – a wonderful song. The layouts my design team collegues created are amazing. I can’t wait to see how this song inspire you!

*Shine*

Journaling is taken from the Song: Shine by Anna Nalick:

Yeah you’ve only begun to shine, won’t you shine shine shine over shadow.

CA 2006

Supplies: Danyeela Patterned Paper, Hambly Screen Prints Overlays, Basic Grey Obscure, Office Transparency, Tim Holtz Stamp, Ranger’s Alcohol Inks and Blending Solutions , Posca Marker

I used some Alcohol Inks on a sheet of transparency – just dropped the inks onto the transparency and then also just dropped some Blending Solution onto it. After dry I stamped the plants onto it and used the Posca Marker for some dots

Euch einen schönen Montag! Wishing you a wonderful monday!

Nat

DT-Work: ScrapMuse April Kit Part III

Hier noch ein Layout mit dem Scrapmuse Kit.

Here is another layout with the scrapmuse Kit.

*Through The Rainbow*

Journaling: A favorite memory of mine from our trip to Kauai – the helicopter ride where we got to see this rainbow and flew through! June 2002

Ansonsten ist der Frühling eingetroffen -ich freue mich riesig und Christiane kommt vor ihrem Abflug zu den Workshops in Bad Aibling noch für ein paar Stunden zu Besuch – yeahhh!

Other than that spring is here- yippeah – and Christiane will visit me a couple hours today before she takes the plane to her workshops in Bad Aibling – yeaahhh

DT-Work: ScrapMuse April Kit Part II

Hier noch ein paar Layouts mit dem Scrapmuse Kit – ich habe von Simone eine Menge Fotos bekommen und es hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht ihre Kleinen zu verscrappen.

Here are some more layouts with the Scrapmuse Kit – I got a lot of photos from Simone and it was so much fun to scrap her kids!

*Lucy*

*OK*

I repeated the paper pattern with some crayons:

I used some alcohol inks on this glass piece and stamped on top with Staz On

—————————————————————————–

Oh and I got this really cute award by Janine aka Aline and Vivian.

This award is generally given to bloggers based on their creativity, design, interesting material, and contribution to the blogging community, no matter what language. Very cool.
There are some rules that go with it..
1 – You have to pick 5 blogs who deserve this award for their creativity, design, interesting material and also contributes to the blogging community no matter what language.

2 – Each award has to have the name of the author and also a link to the blog to be visit by everyone.

3 – Each award winner has to show the award and put the name and the link to the blog that has given her or him award itself.

4 – Award winner and the one who has given the prize have to show the link of “arte y pico” blog so everyone will know the origin of this award.
I’d like to nominate the following 5 people, for different reasons, but all inspiring:
I. Ashley Calder – Oh boy- I’m such a fan of her work!

II. Cat – she is an amazing friend and an amazing artist – right from the heart!

III. Emily Falconbridge – makes me all teary that her feeds are still not working-so I miss so many of her posts

IV. Julie Balzer – I feel connected in so many ways with her art and personality- one day we will meet ;-)

V. Vicki Chrisman – my first teacher ;-) Adore her work!

DT-Work: ScrapMuse April Kit Part I

Hier sind sie – meine Designteamarbeiten für das Scrapmuse April Kit. Während das Papier mich sehr in Frühlingsstimmung versetzte, spielte das Wetter draußen allerdings gar nicht mit – LOL

Here they are – my designteam layouts/cards for the Scrapmuse April Kit. While the paper totally made me feel like Spring – the weather outside played a totally autumn game – LOL

*EEK*

Journaling reads: This strawberry looks pretty weird! I have no clue if you really thought this at the very moment – but boy I’m cracking up seeing you looking at this poor radish ?

Technique: I used a Typewriter font – printed it the text out on paper and cut the single letters out

Photo taken by Simone Ocker

Supplies: American Crafts Papers, Scenic Route Chipboard Letters, Mom’s Typewriter Font, Ribbon, American Crafts Journaling Sticker

*Cards*

this card says in German: Not older – just wiser

Mehr dann morgen ;-)

More tomorrow ;)

Prima Hybrid – Video Tutorial

Vor einigen Wochen wurde ich von Prima Hybrid gefragt, ob ich ein Video Tutorial für sie machen wolle – und ich habe ja gesagt, weil Hybrid Scrapbooking auch eine neue Herausforderung für mich ist. Gestern ist es nun im Newsletter erschienen – bin ganz aufgeregt :-). Ich hoffe Ihr schaut es Euch an – ich hoffe es gefällt Euch und möglicherweise werden noch einige Videos für Prima Hybrid folgen ;-)

A couple weeks ago I was asked by Prima Hybrid if I would like to do a video tutorial for them – and well I said yes as Hybrid Scrapbooking is a new challenge for me also. Yesterday the newsletter was released – I’m totally excited. I hope you take a look – I so hope you like it…and maybe some more videos will follow for Prima Hybrid ;-)

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6vz2Bod2c8&hl=en]
Das Layout zeigt meine Ur-Großmutter.This layout shows my Great Grandmother.

*I Love You*

Journaling: I feel so connected looking at you. This familiar face that reminds me of Mom and myself. I love you my great grandma!

Supplies: Cardstock, Prima Hybrid IOD Rue 88 Collection, Transparency, Prima IOD Ribbon, Prima IOD Chipboard, Ranger’s Embossing Powder, Heidi Swapp Chipboard Letters, White Pen, Caran D’Acher Neocolors II

Ich wünsche Euch einen guten Start ins Wochenende!

I wish you a gorgeous start into the weekend!

++++Edited: I know that the font is hard to read. It was good to read before I uploaded it on Youtube and didn’t see it until today – the quality got lost – I will work on it this weekend .-)

Layout: Guardian

Das Foto zeigt meine Großmutter, die sich leider als meine Mutter 10 war das Leben nahm. Durch meine Großtante weiß ich sehr viel über sie und besonders als Kind habe ich mir immer vorgestellt, dass sie als eine Art Schutzengel auf mich aufpassen würde.

This photo shows my grandma who committed suicide when my Mom was only ten years old. It is a very sad story and only through my beloved grand aunt I can see what a wonderful but yet so unhappy woman my grandma was.

*Guardian*

Bald ist Wochenende- juhuuuu – ich kann es kaum erwarten!

Oh, das ist so kraftvoll und berührend! Auch wenn es eher ein trauriges Layout ist, ich finde, Du bringst die Kraft fantastisch rüber. Da krieg ich echt einen Kloss im Hals!

Blog Love: The Best Vlaamse Frites -OLW-

Yup – Pommes ;-) Das fiel mir so ein zum auserwählten Wort bei OLW “BEST”- nämlich die besten Pommes von Amsterdam – LOL

Yup – French Fries ;-) That is what instantly came to my mind for the word on OLW “BEST” – the best french fries in Amsterdam – LOL

*The Best Vlaamse Frites*

Journaling reads: Every time in Amsterdam we eat French fries with Mayonnaise garlic sauce -so yummie. This time we had to check out the So called “Best Vlaamse Frites in Town” Oh and they were!

I painted the grungeboard heart with acylic paints and added crackle accents on top.

Supplies: Scenic Route Papers, Cherry Arte Chipboard, Junkitz Chipboard, Heidi Swapp Chipboard Letters, Elsie Love Graffity Paper, Hambly Screen Prints Overlay, Heidi Swapp Ledger Journaling Spot, Tim Holtz Grungeboard, Acylic Paints, Ranger’s Crackle Accents

Euch wünsche ich einen schönen Tag :-)

Wishing you a gorgoeus day :-)

Nat
