Finnabair Weekend - Class Project Part 3

Hello lovelies! It's time to share my third project for the Finnabair weekend at Bikuben the 11-13th of November. This class project was the first I made and we learned all about the use of sculpture medium in the "Verdigris" class.

For this class we made a shadowbox canvas.. I have to say that I wasn't really happy with the way mine turned out.. and I wasn't able to "fix" it in a way I would like it.. but I'm going to share it anyways. :)

So the kit was so filled to the brim with loads of lovelyness. All kinds of metals, fabric, lace and flowers. I added them to my frame and this is what I came up with.

I don't know why I do not like it that much but I do think it's because of the face. I didn't get it right I think. I like all my layers and the textures, and it was a fun project to make and of course you learn so much. You really can't see that spoon that we where suppose to use as a focal point. This piece is sprayed with Primary Elements and painted with gesso and metallique paints. 

I love the Finnabair Mechanicals. They are so easy alterable and they looked so good on this project.

You can see part of the spoon I used on my canvas. I have to say it was a fun class and I liked the project, I'm just not happy with my project. 

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today :) 

You - My first post for Scrapberry's

Hi everyone! :) Today is my first post for Scrapberry's. Soo excited! Made a layout with the lovely "Holiday Romance" collection. It has to be my favorite collection. Love it! :)

So I chose to scrap a photo of my middle son Collin sleeping on the beach in Spain. I think the Holiday Romance Collection is perfect for those beachy/sea photos.

So this is what I made for my first post, I used loads of embossing on my page. Frantage and powders. I painted the flowers with different chalk paint form Prima and added som feathers and a buttons.

The metallfeather I bought at korthobby.no and the canvas ones are Studio Calico I beleive. :)

Thank you so much for stopping by me today and I would really love to hear what you think. You leave me a comment and I'll leave one back :)

New challenge at Scraki-Wyzwaniowo!

It's a new month and that  means a new challenge at Scrapki-Wyzwaniowo. It's all about the damask pattern. We have a lovely moodboard for you :)

This time I made a burlap canvas for this challenge. It's full of lovely mixed media (witch I LOVE) lace, flowers and some 7dots Studio (of course).

I used a fractured doll from Tim Holtz as my centerpiece for my canvas. I also stamped with a Tim Holtz butterfly stamp. Flowers are Petaloo's :)

For the damask on my project I've used the damask - stencil from 7dots studio. The papers are form various collections from 7 Dots Studio. I  decorated with chipboard pieces, doilies and flowers. A super fun project to make!

Solbriller - Layout Marion Smith Designs

Oh yes! My turn today over at the Marion Smith Designs blog and this time I made a layout with the awesome Nirvana Collection.

I just love this picture of my son Collin. This was taken in Spain last year and he looks sooo cool in this newly purchased sunglasses..The tittle is a norwegian song lyric and sounds kinda cheesy in English. But roughly translated it means: "I have to have my sunglasses on" :)

I've used a couple of different papers form the Nirvana Collection, and layered them up! Love Layers. My background is Art Anthology Gesso & Velvet.

I've tried to take a pictue of the layers on my layout. I also love to fuzzy cut flowers and other potential embellishments from the papers.

This little sweet camera piece is also a Marion Smith Designs embellishment.. It's actually a charm, but I hid the loop under the paper, Don't you just love this?

Oh well.. that's all I had for today!:) Have a fantastic Monday and thanks for stopping by :)
