Mix of collections with handmade flowers.

 Hello Inkido friends!

I hope you are all well and that you have gotten a lot of lovely pages or cards scrapped lately.

Inkido has a beautiful new collection out called Spring Time, and you can see it HERE.

But today I have a page to share that uses a combination of older collections.

 I layered quite a few beautiful patterned papers here and used my sewing machine to add decorative stitching and my punches for a cute border effect. The pretty vintage crochet lace add to the romantic feel of the page.

 

I used an awesome die by Sizzix called Tattered florals to make the larger flowers. I die cut the different parts from a patterned paper belonging to the X-mas collection. After spraying them with white mist to tone down the pattern there is nothing X-mas about them!! :-)

 The Inkido papers have many gorgeous butterfly designs and I love to use fussy cut butterflies on my pages. The trellies pattern is also made using a Sizzix Frameworks die.

 I had a beautiful chipboard ring once,...but alas I managed to break it in two,... Here I found a way to put it to good use. :-) I also added some ink drips and splatters for an extra effect. 

That was all for today! I hope you enjoyed it.

Enjoy life!

Easter Greetings!

Hi Inkidofans!

Today it's my turn to show you my interpretation of aprils moodboard. This month is all about roots and traditions, so I have chosen to do a box and a card to wish someone a Happy Easter. 

Easter means a lot to me and my family. Traditions are very important. My mom always sent me a card and lot's of candy. Especially marzipan and chocolate :-D

Our holidays are spent skiing, and we make a fire to prepare food outside before we go home. We really enjoy to spend our days outside! On good friday it's a tradition to cook a steak of lamb to remember Jesus and his sacrifice for all of us. And, of course we paint eggs to decorate branches. It gives me the ultimate Easter feeling ;-)

This is our moodboard for april;

And this is how I solved this task;

I hope you got inspired by this post, and that you join us for this months callenge.

Love from Cathrine

'3 is Definitely Company' using Beautiful Memories collections.

Todays page was created with the two lovely  'Beautiful Memories' collections.
I scrapped a photo of my three darling daughters who of course mean the world to me. It was taken on the day the eldest would leave for a year in the US and we had breakfast in the countryside.

I still love the look of fussy-cut butterflies. Many of the Inkido scrapbookingpapers have patterns that lend themselves well for cutting outdifferent elements.

I used different punches and also paint and mist here. The leaves were really a beige colour but I gave them a lick of acrylic paint to go with my blue green theme.

Anyone say banners,...? Yup, I still love them! :-) For me they will never be out of fashion I think....

That's it for today my friends.
I'm happy you wanted to check out my page and wish you a lovely day!! Lots of hugs!!

A box for my love letters ♥

Hi there everyone! 

A new week, a new monday, and my turn to show you my contribution for Inkido's february challenge.

This time I want to show you a box that I made for my loveletters from my sweet husband. We have been together for 15 years now, and shared both good times and bad. Luckily most good ones :-) And he's my rock, my love and best friend. Sometimes he can be romantic ;-) and after all this years there has been some loveletters to. So I desided to make a box for them. I have painted a box with gesso, and decorated it with products and papers from Inkido. 

Here are some closeups. As you might se I was inspired by the colors and the heart.

I would love it if you join Inkido for this challenge and shared you project whit us :-)

I used a corrugated white heart, painted it red, used gesso to soften it down and applied som 3D effect paint. The burgundy cherry blossoms are also from Inkido, and the green fasion flower got a good layer of matte gel and dry glitter to make it soft and shabby.

'Tween' and a look at the NEW Inkido collection!!

Hi, it's me Bente here to share my 2nd lo for January.
I had this photo laying on my scraptable for a long time waiting to scrap it.I think it is pretty cute. The hands belong to my youngest DD and she was twelve when I took it. When I look at the photo it truly takes me back to what I felt like when I was a young girl, almost a teenager.
It is important to preserve the everyday memories and I wanted to document this.

It was easy to mix quite a few different papers as Inkido has such a comprehensive collection.
Most of the collections mix very well. Makes it easy to create pages that turn out differently just by adding another pattern from our stash.

As always I adore using some fussy cut butterflies on my page.

The beautiful lace you see here is also sold by Inkido. And they have other pretty styles as well.

Thanks for taking the time to visit us today. I hope you liked my page.
Remember to come back tomorrow for a new post by one of my fabulous DT friends.

Here are some of the products that I used on my page:

.:Delightful Afternoon Shade:.

***Information about December challenge  at the end of our post ***

Hi everyone!

Today I have a layout filled with small details...

How I love the summer! And in the afternoon I love to just sit for a while in the shade just watching the kids play.

I've used one of my green large flowers and then I've covered it with alot of different embossing powders.

All the smaller flowers are coverd over the edges with embossing powder as well.

It's alot of fun playoing with all theese different powders.

I've used the Inkido embossingpowders:

Chunky crystals white, white/silver glitter, Chunky crystals copper, Vegas gold and Valentine.

 All over the layout there's small hints of the embossingpowder Chunky Crystals white...

Different sizes of butterflies cut out of various papers in a couple of colors.

Heartpins, bling, stars and lace combines with many layers of paper pieces.

Above a closeup on the larger green flower covered in embossingpowders.

I hope you all have a great friday and a good and perhaps very crafty weekend! ♥

Huge hugs from a finally snowcovered Sweden.
