Burst of Colors

Hello everyone and Happy Weekend! I was browsing through the blogs a little yesterday and found some great inspiration for todays project at Suzanne's blog! She made some snow globe ornaments yesterday using Clearly Party Favors from Bo Bunny. Looking at these I remembered I had some Bubble Fronts / Shake It's! from Impression Obsession sitting in my drawer for quite a while. And I really liked the idea of a snow globe ornament and decided trying to do one using the Bubble Fronts and my Spellbinder Fleur Di Lis Pendant, Labels 1 and Ovals. And it worked out quite well. This really was a fun and also quick project. My image is from Belles 'n Whistles newly released Christmas Collection I and called Belle's Carols . I just used part of it to fit my bubble. I filled some coarse glitter and tiny marbles into the bubble before gluing it over the image. For decoration I just used 2 metal snowflakes tied onto some ribbon and 2 black metal notes (these were brads, I just c

Happy Wednesday to ya all! Today I would like to show you a little recipe book I've made. From the first moment I saw this little Oops Tilda I loved that cute little image. And when I found that journal at Michaels weeks ago I knew it would make a perfect recipe book. I already colored Tilda over a week ago and had not the right idea for using her. And yesterday when I went through my stash of journals I've collected over time and saw this one I suddenly knew that she would be the perfect match. I colored her with my Copics and used P rima Flowers, half-pearls, Basic Grey Blingz , soeme ribbon and a charm for decoration. Some highlights were set using Stickles and the swirly dots is a stamp from Inque Boutique. Oh and speaking of recipes, starting with my post there today I am posting my recipes on my recipe blog also in English ;-) I got quite a few emails asking me if I could post in English as well. Unfortunately I don't have the time right now to translate already po
