Today I've tried myself in making a layout after a long long time. Over at More than Words there is a new challenge with a Word inspiration "Together" and the creative part of the challenge which is to use the Ampersand (picture with link to the challenge at the and of the post). The first thing that crossed my mind is the pregnancy as one of the most beatiful seasons in a life of a woman, waiting for her child to be born. A part of her, which she carried for 9 months and will eventually become a miracle of life. But always remained a part of her in the most cherished place of her heart.
I used 13 arts papers from "Timeless" collection and a bunch of 13 arts mediums, some gorgeous Scrapiniec chipboards and lovely Wild Orchid Crafts flowers.
I also have a video tutorial for you. I hope you'll like the projects. I'll be happy to hear your thoughts in the comment section. I happily read every and each one of them and am deeply gratefull for the time you take to leave some love in my "happy place".
Quite some time ago I made my first artist palette box. It was quite different from the one I'm going to share with you today. I made this one as a Guest Designer over at Scrap Africa blog, where design team members with amazing Denise honoured me with a "Top Hat" award for my previous entry to the challenge. When I saw the gorgeous Mood board colors I knew right away what I'm going to make.
I used lots of 13 arts mediums and also papers from "Aura Rosa" collection and added lots of Scrapiniec chipboard embellishement and Wild Orchid Crafts flowers. I hope you'll like it. There is video tutorial for you at the end of the post.
Thank you again to the amazing team of Scrap Africa for this wonderful opportunity. And to all of you... don't forget to play along with this months gorgeous challenge! I'm looking forward seeing your entries. :)

I'm so happy and so honoured and looking forward creating with their gorgeous flowers in the team of an amazing artists. Thank you so much Wild Orchid Crafts for the honour and for this amazing opportunity. Hop over also to Wild Orchid Crafts blog for tons of inspiration!
I just love turning unusual objects into art. And these ballerina shoes were no exception. I have my book of ideas where I put down everything that pops in my mind and I think it could be great for a project. I had my Ballerina shoes in there for quite some time. But since I haven't had the idea quite clear yet on what to do with them, they stayed safe inside. But few days ago I got the idea on how to upgrade them to art and although I didn't quite know what I should do next, I went with the flow. And this is what came out of it. I have to say I adore them! They will be hanging in my daughter's bedroom to warm her heart each day!
I also made a video, if you want to make one for yourself. Hope you'll like it!

It is yet another project that fits perfectly to Berry71Bleu Challenge this month. Hurry up and join in, there is only few hours left. :)
I have a really rich project to share with you today. For some time I've had in my mind the idea to make a mixed media dress on a dress form which would be covered with feathers. Yesterday I finally had the time to start making one. I made a dress form from 13 arts paper with the help of my Cricut and then dressed it, using lots of 13 arts mixed media goodness. I finally decided to upgrade the project and incorporate the dress into a reverse canvas. I used a lot of Scrapiniec chipboards and some Wild Orchid craft gorgeous flowers. I've also made a youtube tutorial for you - this time a little bit longer, since it was quite advanced project with lots of details.
I hope you'll like it! :)
Have a great day!

One of my biggest dreams is to visit Paris once. I just love that idea since I was a little girl. And this is quite a long time now. :D Have you been there yet? They say it is so beautiful and sooo romantic. And when I first saw the Graphic 45 collection "Cafe Parisian" I fell in love with it immediately. Not to mention that the color range of the collection was totaly perfect for me! When I got the Scrapiniec "Bistro de Paris" chipboard collection in my hand I realized they were just perfect together. So I made this shadow box with French street, Parisian Cafe and Pastry shop. I added lots of gorgeous Wild Orchid Crafts Roses. I hope you'll like it! As usual there is also a youtube tutorial at the end of this post.
Enjoy the weekend dear friends! :)

Those art journal pages are so addictive! :D I made another one and I enjoyed it so much. I used the January 13 arts sketch. Papers and mediums are from 13 arts and I added some Scrapiniec chipboards and some Wild Orchid Crafts flowers. Hope you'll like it! I also have another youtube video tutorial for you at the bottom of this post! <3
