Before Easter

Hi,

Today it's my turn to show you my interpretation of aprils moodboard. 

This month is all about roots and traditions, 

At Easter in Poland, children receive a lot of sweets. 

It is important to have a nice package, so I prepared today.

 

 With our moodboard April chose a rooster.

The second project is exploding box-instead of Easter card.

This is our moodboard for april;

                                          I invite you to take part in the challenge in April.
                                                        I wish you all Happy Easter.

Irena

  

 

   

"70's Rhodesia" Layout from Helen {April Challenge - "Our Roots"}

Hello everyone!  Wonderful to be back here with you all at Inkido today!

  I just love Inkido products & have just had an {lovely!} overdose of them 

for the last couple of days creating my new layout.  I used the April "Our Roots" 

Challenge as my inspiration.  Here is the mood board for it.  Rather than be

 inspired by the many colours I chose to be inspired by the concept behind

 the board - our heritage & where we grew up/started our lives.

I had my photo printed out for many months now - never having the suitable opportunity

 to scrap it - so now I grabbed my chance!  I created a photo tutorial to accompany

 my layout but got so excited to finish it in the end that I left out a few of my last steps! 

 Once I had completed my layout I sponged on some more gesso to mute

 it down a notch & did some "partial" stamping of the butterflies around 

the edge of the layout.  I added this to represent the millions of displaced

 Zimbabweans around the world - the diaspora - of which I am one.

Yes I see that I forgot a number 3 above! LOL!!  Did anyone notice that?!?

The brown music sheet paper I used behind my photo is from the Happy Christmas Collection {Happy Music}.  That's all from me for this month.  I will see you all again

 in May.  Please play along with our April challenge!  Bye for now... HELEN

Cards by Sabrina

Hi there! Have you played with our current challenge? I have made two cards based on the colors in the mood board :

I love brown and have used it as a dominant color for my first card.  Liquid pearls is a must in my project and have used a lot here :

My second card looks softer with more pale colors :

Hope you have found some inspiration, happy crafting and thanks for looking!
