Amazing Autumn

Those of you who know my work, are well aware that one of my favourites are exploding boxes. Today I made a mixed media exploding box in autumn colors, with colorful leaves and golden flowers and wishing well. It's perfect for this time and today we've had almost perfect sunny autumn day, so I had my inspiration just looking outside the window. I also made a tutorial for you, so you can make it by yourself. I hope you'll get inspired somehow...

Tutorial on how to make an exploding box "Amazing Autumn":

I'm using Lindy's Stamp Gang color sprays: Wake Me Up Before You Go Gold, My Mojito Green, Cocklebells Corals, Fuzzy Navel Peach.

And Maja Design Papers: Summertime with gorgeous leaf pattern.

And also entering into 13arts - hoped I'll be able to use some of the sprays and paints but the parcel didn't yet arrive :) So I'm looking forward and anxiously waiting for the next week to come. :D

Never too late to follow your dreams

Dreams... we all have dreams. But in order to make our dreams come true we have to invest a lot of determination, dedication, self-discipline and effort. Dreams don't work unless we do. And sometimes going after your dreams can be a big challenge to us. But they say if something doesen't challenge us it also doesen't change us. And change is good... it means we are alive and chasing our dreams...

I captured all of this in my today's layout, which is all about dreams, hopes, and ...dancing. I was inspired by a word "Change" and Ombre effect which are the main themes of this month's More Than Words challenge. And this time I also have a video tutorial for you. It's my first one so be gentle with me :D

Hope you like it! Let me know what you think! I'll be very happy! :)
Hugs,
Aleksandra

Romeo & Juliet wedding scene

Summertime is time for weddings and a while ago an idea about Romeo and Juliet wedding scene poped in my mind. I decided to make a wedding box with a miniature. Prima white resin embellishment seemed ideal for creating a balcony and door arch. I used Prima Hello Pastel digital paper collection and I cut out the flowers from Meadow Lark digital paper collection. Lovely butterflies are from Sunkiss collection. The colors from Prima product picks are gorgeous and the project came out lovely, vivid and warm. What do you think?

"To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow."

Today I have for you something magical, a Fairytale chestbox with a Secret garden hidden inside. You can hear two sweet birds singing a song of Love and you can smell blooming flowers. The lovely butterflies are fluttering around. A perfect peaceful soul sanctouary. Like it? I was inspired by gorgeous Maja Design papers and Mood Board and I added some lovely Scrapiniec chipboards. Have a great day! Hugs, Aleksandra
