Hello StudioForty friends!

Today I show you a special Advent calendar from the Frosty Season collection.

First  I made the base from a 5 cm wide gray plate. The bottom is 15 cm and the two sides are 17 cm, which I punched at the top and stiffened with a paper straw.

I cut 13 pieces of 13 * 13 cm sheets of patterned paper. The first one is the cover,  the rest are decorated so, that you just have to turn them over at half-time and turn backwards. I made different pockets on several pages, in which the poems printed on the tags were inserted.

I decorated the pages with chipboard stickers, fussy cuts, diecuts, at some places with stamps.

I hope you enjoyed today's project.

Hello Studioforty friends!

Today I want to show you my first winter inspiration of the year. I made a Christmas garland from the amazing Frosty Season collection. Its colors and atmosphere are beautiful, aren't they?

First I cut 5 bigger stars out of white cardboard 5 smaller stars out of the Frosty Seasonpaper pad and then glued them to each other. I punched  and put ribbon in them.

I decorated it with fussy cuts, die-cuts, chipboard stickers, and then sewed it all up on a pom-pom ribbon completed with a few die-cuts.

I hope you enjoyed today's project.

Hello StudioForty friends!

After finishing the TN album (which you can look at here and here) I could finally create something with Studioforty’s wonderful autumn kit called Herbarium. This kit was so inspiring, I made two layouts straight off. The photos were made at the autumn scrap camp.

On the first layout I used a latticed paper for the background. Under the photo I put a layer of TN paper to raise it. 

I applied almost all of the flower diecuts and decorated further with fuzzy cuts. Finally I spattered brown ink on the page.

On the second layout I worked up a watercolor background on a base cardboard and sewed a patterned paper on, covering the half of it. I cut the title text out of my favourite flower-patterned paper with my Cameo. The symbol ’&’ came from one of the PL cards. Finally I decorated it with chipboards, diecuts and fuzzy cuts.

Hello Studioforty friends!

As I promised, now I would like to show you the second half of my album about my sailing on Lake Balaton. You can watch the first day here.

I used two collections for the creation, Bom Dia and Lazy Days. Both are good choices for summer memories and complement each other perfectly.

The second day:

For the first pair of pages I cut a strip of patterned paper, put the photos and the note on it, then I decorated them with transparent stickers, word stickers and fussy cuts.

On the right side of the second pair of pages I stamped the word “Balaton” vertically several times then I decorated it further with fussy cuts and stickers.

For the next pair of pages I cut both a PL card and the photo into a circle shape. I decorated them with fussy cuts and chipboards.

For the last two pairs of pages I used tags, chipboards and stamps.

 Hello Studioforty friends!

I hope you enjoyed the summer and shot a lot of nice photos! Today I would like to show you my first traveler’s notebook on the blog, which I filled with photos of a sailing on Lake Balaton, where I was in June with my brothers .I mixed two collections for the creation, Bom Dia and Lazy Days. Both are a great fit for processing summer beach memories.

I embroidered the word "Lake" on the TN cover and then decorated it with PL cards, chipboards, stickers  and fussy cuts.  I wrote the word "Balaton" with the letter stamp.  I closed the album with a magnet.

First day:
For the first pair of pages I used a full-page photo on the left, on top of which I pasted the text printed on the vellum paper. On the right, I cut tags from different patterned papers and stamped.

For the next pair of pages I cut a Pl card and the text to a circle shape, placed the photo on the other side, and decorated it a little bit.

I'll show you the second day soon!

Thanks for stopping by here today and happy crafting!
