This is side one of an altered notebook cover I've made, with lots of mixed media techniques and mediums.
Here are some close-ups:
I would like to enter it to the August challenge at Mixed Media & Art blog, with this fab moodboard:
I was inspired by the colors of green, brown, black and some touches of gold. I was also inspired by the mystic atmosphere of the photos on the moodboard.
I would also like to enter it to September challenge at Off The Rails Scrapbooking, which is a steampunk moodboard:
Another challenge I would like to enter this altered notebook cover, is 'Anything mixed media goes', at Mixed Media World. I loved the rustic style and the clocks on the moodboard.
Thank you for visiting my blog and I really appreciate your comments.
I would like to enter it to the following challenges: stars - simon says challenge stamps - the mixed media mc I also made a video of 'start to finish', how I made this lo:
Thank you for taking the time and visiting my blog. I appreciate your comments very much!
Testimony - I used the inspiration word 'limit' both for my title, which says in Hebrew - 'No Limitations', and for my journaling, which I also placed on a stamped journaling spot. and it reads: "Each year, on your birthday, we go to the chocolate restaurant, and you eat chocolate. lots of chocolate. without any limitation. once a year...".
It also goes for the 'line' challenge at Paperdvizhnik. their DT are so talented and the blog is full of inspiration! pop over and take a look. Here are some close-ups on the details:
Here's a video of how I made the background:
materials:
papers - Fancy Pants, mostly from 'Park Bench' collection.
I used 3 photos of my youngest, from different periods, documenting his growing up.
My clues to solve the case were:
Scheme - all colors are here.
Evidence - mixed media background, a frame, pen work, flowers, circles, book pages.
Testimony - I wrote my journaling directly on the background, and it reads: "Day after day I enjoy seiing you growing, from a baby to a cheerful smiling boy, very sensetive with a big warm heart. love you very much. Mom." Here's a video how I created this layout:

A new sketch at Stuck?! Sketches, and I was really inspired by this sketch, though my take on it is a little different from the original sketch.
Here's the sketch:
And this is my take on it:
As you can see, I didn't use multi-photos, but instead of the rectangles in the original sketch, I used diamond chipboards (Creative Embellishments) as an accent to the photo I used.
This lo is full of mixed media techniques and mediums - gesso, stencils, masking and misting, modeling paste, stamping, embossing, etc.
I was inspired by two challenges - the challenge at Scrapki-Wyzwaniowo for September, with the theme of 'Imagine':
I tried to give a dreamy look and feeling to my page. I strongly believe that setting one's imagination free, dreaming, is aSn essential part of a healthy soal. building castles in the sand, which is what my boy was doing when I took this photo, is one of the ways to set your imagination free.
The other challenge I was inspired by is the September moodboard at Sassy Scrappers:
Isn't this moodboard just gorgeous? I was inspired by the colors, the beach theme and the distressing look. I tried to mimic the sand look with the embossing powder, and I added some stamped shells.
I would also like to enter it to September's challenge at Creative Embellishments, which is to use a fav CE products. I just LOVE their chippies, and can't have enough of them :). and it also goes for the 'Summer Memories' challenge at Stampendous, and I used some of their gorgeous embossing powders. Here are some close-ups on the details:
Thank you for taking the time and visiting my blog. I appreciate every comment you care to leave me.
I've made a door hanger for my office, to hang when I'm at a meeting. the background is in a mixed media style, while the flowers were cut from felt. I love the contradiction between the two parts, plus I got to use some of my hoarded felt :).
To make the flowers I used Die-namics dies, in different sizes.
I would like to enter it to the flower challenge at Craft Hoarders Anonymous, for their 'All pretty flowers' challenge. For the colors I was very inspired by September moodboard at Sassy Scrapper:
I loved this moodboard so much, that I've made another project, inspired by this moodboard, to be revealed in a couple of days ;-). Here are some close-ups on the details:
Thank you for stopping by and I appreciate your comments very much.
Hello everyone and thank you for hoping to my blog :).
There's a new case file at CSI, case file #139, with a fantastic sketch by Em Stafrace:
And this is my take on this wonderful case file:
My clues to solve the case were:
Sketch - checked;
Scheme - all 5 colors are here;
Evidence - stripes, clouds, flowers, mini brads, two of soemthing (two photos), triangles, flourishes.
Testimony - my journaling, documenting my youngst harvesting grapes, is written on the cloud, and I used IW 'perfect' in my journaling (it was indeed a perfect day).
The background paper is Prima, and so is the circular latice stencil I used. all other pp are Echo Park, a mix&match of collections. white cs and brads are AC. I would like to enter it to the 'anything goes' challenges, both at Paper Issues and at Clique Kits.
Here are some close-ups on the details:
