Scrapiniec Balkon royal chipboard 3D model

Hi, today I'm sharing something different. It's a 3D chipboard model I build. I bought the kit at Scrapiniec because I loved it at first site.

I colored with chalks and metallic paints but I also used scrappaper (on the stairs for example).
Here's a picture (from Scrapiniec) how it looked before painting.

and here are more pictures of how it turned out. I worked a couple of days on it.

Now all it needs is some decorations. This will take some time but I'll show you the results when I'm finished.

I'm entering this project in the simon says stamp Wednesday Challenge: anything goes.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hugs, Henriette.

Scrap card made from Elena Volchkova card kit

Hi, every month I have a small craft budget to spend and last month I bought some beautiful items from one of my favorite shops http://allmacraft.com/.
I have a craft haul video on my you tube page in case you'll like to see what I purchased.
Here is a link to that video:

One of the things I bought is a card making kit from Elena Volchkova. Allmacraft sells many of her card making kits and the kits have all the elements you'll need to make one beautiful scrap card.
Here is the card I've made.

I love all the fabric elements and the cute little squirrel.

The card has a filling on both sides (all included in the kit) and therefore it's very soft.

I also decorated the backside of the card.

I like this card so much that I will purchase some more of these in the future.

Thanks for stopping by!

Summer dress

Hi, my second post today is to share with you this next scrap card I've made. It's a bit shabby chic style but not quite.

All the paper elements are free downloads from https://vk.com/skrap_roses.
The tiny shabby chic roses I made by die cutting small circles from cheesecloth and nylon fabric.
I sew the layers together and added a tiny pearl. They turned out so sweet and fluffy.

(I adore this little bunny, so cute).
I've also added lots of laces, crochets trims, ribbons and layers of patterned paper.

The mint leaves and the pink frame benath the dress are from my favorite online shop http://allmacraft.com/.

Guest DT for Crealies

Hi, yesterday I was guest designer for Crealies dies, here's a link to the blogpost but it's in Dutch.
Crealies is a Dutch company which creates and sells many dies and stamps.
I had the honor to make a project with some of the new dies.
I made a clear tag with foamiran flowers. I made these flowers using Crealies dies.

I used the following dies: 

I've also made a video tutorial from start to finish.

You can find this video on the Crealies you tube page.

Tropical tag

Hi, today I'm sharing a tag with a tropical feel.

The background paper is a digital download from an Etsy shop called Walking Mombie Design.
All the flowers on the tag I made using foamiran from 14 craft bar. I used different dies. The hibiscus is not made using dies, I found a petal shape on internet and went from there. If I have the time I will do a tutorial on a foamiran hibiscus soon.

The leaves are made with these thin cut dies  from Little Birdie.
The sentiment is a stamp from inspired by stamping, plumerias. I was so lucky to have that stamp set in my stash because it fits the theme of the tag perfectly.

Fly like a free bird

Hi, today I'm sharing a card I've made with the pretty papers from Lemoncraft called forget me not.

The blue flowers on the card are from Itsy Bitsy, the white ones I made myself using foamiran and flower centers from 14 craft bar.

This card has a lot of different layers, not only paper layers but also ribbon and lace layers.

I've also added wood accents like the branches. The cage and bird are chipboard elements (from wycinanka ) which I covered with the Forget-me-not patterned paper.

I made the sentiment in Word and printed it out.

I would like to enter this card in these challenges:

Hot air balloon

I had a project on my mind for some time; making a paper hot air balloon.
And because I had a few more days of vacation left I decided to make it and here is the result.

A hot air balloon in shabby chic style.

First I looked on the internet for a template, I found one here on Kaisercraft.

I cut out 8 pieces for the balloon part using heavy white cardstock.
I covered the pieces with Prima marketing Love Story paper. The upper part of the balloon has different paper then the lower part.

It's a bit difficult to glue the pieces together and to form the right shape, but I managed it. Any cracks can be covered with the lace trims.

The decorating is the fun part, I used prima marketing flowers, lace, ribbons, twine, pompom trim, beads, pearls and crochet flowers (from Allmacraft ).

I also glued a few flowers on the basket.

I do like how the balloon turned out, I hope you'll like it also.

Sweet card

Hi friends, we are back from our holiday to the Spanish Island of Lanzarote and we had a wonderful time.
Before going on our holiday I received some good news, I was selected to be one of the design team members for craftangles. This is really wonderful and I'm looking forward to making cards and projects with craftangles products starting next month.

It's nice to have a short brake from crafting but it's also nice to be back in my little craftroom and create. I've made this sweet card yesterday with a summer feel.

The lovely scene with the two girls is a digital download ATC from this etsy shop.

I made the flowers using different dies from 14 craft bar and crealies. The foamiran and stamens are from 14 craft bar.

I've added laces, fabric flowers, ribbons, crochet trims and a blue paper doily as well.
