Hello everyone!

 

Today I'd like to introduce you to the inhabitants of the Enchanted Forest, 

who probably come and go quite often in the big mushroom

You can also make a sitting Opa Gnom from a standing one. 

After all, an old man wants comfort.


Just break the legs twice OMG 😀


and then glue them back together at a 90° angle.

A door in a magical world

 

 Hello!

 

 I was inspired to create a new magical shadow frame, 

where I used some beautiful chipboards in nature look.

 Love these designs inspired by nature and you can find a lot of them at Dusty Attic.

(the added paper elements are from the Magic Forest collection by Stamperia)


 

 I used this magical  Gothic Arch

as frame in 3d look, that means I glued one part in background 

and the other on the front part of the shadow frame.

 For an old weathered look I use a crackle medium

 with white gesso and some brown tones.

 

 

 

some close up's


 

all other chipboards were first primed white gesso and then painted

 with various brown acrylic paints. after drying, 

some highlihts were set with white acrylic paint using an old wide dry brush

Moonlight shadows

 

   Hello everyone!

 

 Have you seen the  latest MDF shapes by Calico Craft Parts?
- enchanting moons and old gnarled trees - 
 
Just the right addition for projects on the theme of Magic forest.
 
I was inspired to create a shadow frame,
meaning I used a canvas from backside, 
glued a 30 x 30 scrappaper on it
and  have torn a part out of the middle.
Behind you will discover a mysterious old castle
which is framed by these beautiful old trees.

 

How to ... tips

Xmas Memory Frame - Guestdesign Craft O' Clock

 

Hello everyone!

 

Today a new christmas gift inspiration, 

I created a memory frame for things to be remembered at christmas time.

 

Base was a simply plastic picture frame. I used the Warm and Peaceful collection,

 several cut out motifs, background paper and also some parts from the Junk Journal.

They were perfect to create two bags,  you can put notes, photos, recipes there.

Thanks for stopping by...until next time!

Snail Mail with 13arts

 

Welcome creative friends!

 

I was in love from the beginning 

in this realistic looking 3d frame from 

the collection 'Industrial Zone' from 13arts.

It looks so lifelike and the grunge style in rust is really awesome!


 

I used the backside from a canvas as base, 

cut out the centre piece and glue it

on the frame.

Rustic pipelines are also a cutout from this great paper collection,

 Simply put together and lightly overlapped, they look like a real thing,

doesn't it?


 

 combined with some chipboards from Dusty Attic, cutting dies,

flowers and dried floristic materials a perfectly combination for me and my theme

Snail Mail - Botanical Steampunk Garden

 

used 13arts products

I hope I could awaken your imagination and inspiration.

 

Happy creating!

Nostalgic Christmas Feelings with Dusty Attic

 

Welcome creative friends!

 

 In these times we miss some of the things that made the time before christmas special, 

we always like to go to nostalgic christmas markets,

 love the many lights on the streets, the specially decorated trees and stands, 

 smell of gingerbread, roasted almonds and cookies. 

 


 

 

In memory of better times I created this shadow frame in vintage style. 

Used the motif of a christmas card and two memory photos from a christmas market

 in Salzburg (Austria) to design a small magical store. 

The christmas trees and the lantern fit perfectly to the scene 

and the winter corner framed the whole thing wonderfully. 

Hanging sign post was extended a bit with the help of leftovers

 and extended with a best wishes label.
