Spring ATC pendants

 

 Hello creative friends!

 

 The first snowdrops are out in the garden now, 

and we're all craving some warmth and sunshine. 

I created three simple ATCs as Easter bouquet pendants. 

 

I made the background using old book paper, straw tissue paper, Distress Ink and stamps.

 I painted the beautiful spring flowers with acrylic colours and finished them with 3D varnish.

Get well soon - Gift idea

 

 Hello creative friends!

 

There are sniffles and sneezes everywhere, everyone is sick and exhausted.

A sick visit can help and you also want to bring a little gift. 
So I thought about making something that you can give as a gift 
alongside medicine and other useful things.

 

The result is this teapot filled with herbal tea, 
from which new energy flows in the form of cogwheels, 
decorated with fragrant spices.

suitable for friends who love coffee.

Christmas Wishes - Homedecor

 

 Hello creative friends!

 Transform old items into new ones.


I came across an old Christmas decoration that was in great condition but not my style.

 I choose some Christmas MDF shapes and painted it white and blue and adding some glitter and gold accents. I had a few extra snowflakes from the snowflake wreath, so I used them as Christmas tree toppers. With a few bows, cones and bells, I quickly put together a new decoration to wish visitors a merry Christmas in the hallway.

Christmas Decoration - Sled Kit

 

 Hello creative friends!

 

 There's nothing like the desire for snow at Christmas. Imagine a Christmas evening 

by the crackling fireplace, in the glow of the candles and the snow trickling softly outside. 

Unfortunately, it's just a wish these days, 

so I've made it the theme on this amazing vintage-style sleigh.

 It's very easy to assemble. 

There are so many ways you can design it.


  

 

 used

 

Let it Snow 
 

  I used the lettering 'Let it snow', painted and decorated with  textured snow

 and white embossing powder for the snow stars and fir branches. 

I also added a few extra decorations like bells, ribbons, cones,

 feathers and pompoms to make a sleigh you can either hang or stand upright.

 I hope you have a great Advent season!

Cosy Fireplace

 

 Hello!
 
 Christmas is just around the corner, and it's cold and uncomfortable outside again. 
The garden is in hibernation, which is the perfect time to make it cosy inside. 

But it's also time to think about Christmas presents, 
so I gave the fireplace a festive look with a little colour, texture and 
christmas accessories. 
I didn't paint the inside, the fireplace in birch wood appears
 particularly warm thanks to the LED fairy fairy lights.
 It looks really cosy and appealing, almost too nice to give as a present. 😀

Halloween in Wonderland

 

Hello creative friends!

 

I created a book in Altered Art to Halloween, 

theme was 'The scary Alice Apothecary '. 

and Alice has a special recommendation for you - 

 

Mix a teaspoon The madness powder   with 100 ml Wodka 😅👿

use it without care at all the time 

and you 'll fit right in our world 👀👻😁

 

The fire-breathing Jabberwocky and the grim-faced twins fits very well to this theme.

Mystic Witch Clock

 

 Hello!

 

 Guess what! Halloween is just around the corner, which means it's the perfect time for dark fantasy. I've designed a clock that is simply indispensable for a witch. 😉

I used a coffin silhouette as base and created the clock case with four matching shapes. 

A ghostly dementor was suitable for the clock pendulum, which I supplemented 

with a severed pumpkin from the scary pumpkin border.

Altered Bottle - Witching Hour

 

Hello creative friends!

 

 I was inspired to create again a bottle in altered Art. 

Using the layer technique, I have put together a number of different pieces

 to make an old raven witches' clock with a pendulum.

 I love these old bottles in a dark romantic style, 

you can just light them up 

and they create a eerily beautiful atmosphere.
