Last project for DT OUAS

Hello
It's a bit sad post today, showcasing my last DT project for OUAS. You have probably seen the announcement about OUAS blog closure.
Well, I hope you take the chance to play with us one more time! Let's make it the biggest month EVER!

Here's my take on the theme for this challenge:

December it's s my birth month, it's also my 12th month with OUAS DT and I'm celebrating this with a layout about me. On the backside I placed a personal note to myself.

Here's our last Once Upon A Sketch challenge info:

Journalling Theme: "It's December..." 

You are free to interpret our theme ANY WAY you like. It is for your inspiration and this theme word DOES NOT need to be part of your title or journalling. But please make sure your layout is based on the sketch below and includes journalling (hidden journalling is fine). Acceptable journalling is MORE than just a sentence, or generic writing such as date/place etc. It needs to be present and at least 3 lines long. Remember, hidden journalling (under a photo/tag or behind your page) is perfectly fine but please DO let us know in your post where your journalling is! 

Christmas cards in pastels

Hello there!
Somehow I couldn't get going with Christmas cards this year, but now even I start slowly to feel the spirit :)

I like to play with some non-traditional schemes and my first 2 cards came out in pastels.
I picked some lovely collections from Maja Design to play with (Vintage Frost Basics, Vintage Summer Basics) and my Big Shot was steaming hot. I prepared almost the same base in grey tones for both cards, just decided to spice it up with different colours of embellishments.
Hope you like it!

Time flies - Words & Paintery

Hello!
Few weeks ago a new challenge blog was started and it gives just the kind of inspiration I really like, it's not too obvious, just giving enough to kick the creative process.
October word is Paintery.

Paitery inspired me to create watercolour effect on the plain cardstock. I stamped the roses with the different stamps, I added colours, highlights and shadows , using watercolours and white pen.
I finished of with some background stamping, splatters and white stencil.

Some details:

This is the Words& Paintery inspiration and I submit my painterly project for the October challenge:)

Vacation memories

Perhaps I'm boring saying this over and over again but November is no fun in this part of the world...
The only positive thing I can find are the long, dark , early evenings = more time spent at home = more time for crafting - hopefully :)
It's already hard to believe that only a week ago we've been wearing shorts and tank tops... I hope our charged batteries will last until the cosy December starts :)
To keep the memories alive, one of our vacation selfies from the beach.

Supplies: UHK Gallery Naval Treaty, Butterfly Effect

Farewell to the summer

Hey there :)
No doubts summer is gone from here...and I still have a fair share of our summer photos to scrap!
Here comes one of them.  I have followed Prima's BAP October sketch for this page and I based it on Epiphany collection.

Here's Prima's sketch:

Thanks for stopping by!Hope you are still enjoying some sunshine, wherever you are :)

Seaside memories

Hello!
I feel I'm a bit distant from my blog nowadays - life's just too busy ! But I hope it's gonna change soon, as the evenings get longer and longer in our part of the world and crafting is such a cosy way of spending this time ;)
Anyway, I do have a new layout to share, which I made recently. I just wanted to play with some beautiful papers so I've chosen these gorgeous lines by Maja Design.

Have a great evening and I hope to see you back soon!
