Schneefeld

The first time I saw this challenge of  CSI, I knew that I wanted to try a technique I wanted to use for a long time. And now, I did it!

I cut out a circle and stamped around it to create my own background. I used lots of stamps out of my stash. I love how it turned out!

thanks for stopping by!

Meersüchtig

The challenge of todays mixed bag challenge at Lasting Memories is to use torn edges. 

In der heutigen Challenge bei Lasting Memories wollen wir gerissenes Papier sehen. 

Ich habe graues Papier mit weißer Stempelfarbe und den Stempeln von creative depot bestempelt. 

I stamped onto a grey paper to create my own patterned paper.

 

I love these fishes from creative depot. I stamped them on grey paper and embossed them with white embossing powder.

Ich liebe diese Fischstempel von creative depot. Hier habe ich sie auf graues Papier gestempelt und weiß embosst. 

 

Für den Titel habe ich mir ähnliche Schriftarten wie auf dem Stempel raus gesucht und ihn dann mit der Cameo ausgeschnitten. Im Hintergrund habe ich mit einem Stencil und transparenter Strukturpaste Schiffchen aufgetragen. 

The title is cut out with my cameo. I tried to find similar fonts like these on the stamp. For more texture on the background, I used a stencil and transparent texture paste to create these boats.

summer days

The last "plants-challenge" at Lasting Memories comes with fruits!


I used a pineapple cutfile from the silhouette designstore, cut it out with my cameo and backed it with several patterned papers. The title is a cutfile, too. I think it is from misskatecuttables.

Here you can see the backed pineapple a bit closer. It took a lot of time, but I love how it turned out.

good day sunshine

Hey, another week with the plants challenge at Lasting Memories is on the way! We want to see a cactus on your layout!

I used a sentiment cutfile from the silhouette design store and traced it with a black fineliner.

The cactus is a cufile from just nick that I backed with some scraps and colored with watercolors.

Diesen Monat wollen wir eure sommerlichen Anhänger bei Challenge up your life sehen! 
Und bei Lasting Memories sind diese Woche Blumen gefragt. Da ich zur Zeit so viel um die Ohren hab, hab ich nur ein Layout für 2 Challenges gemacht....

This month we want to see your summer tags at Challenge up your life! 
And at Lasting Memories the assignment this week is: flowers. Time is busy these days, so I decided to create one layout for both challenges.

Für diese Challenge habe ich einige Tags auf meinem Sommerlayout drapiert.

Für die Tags und die Blumen, die ich aus einem Designpapier ausgeschnitten habe, habe ich das neue Papier aus der Kollektion indigo & Ivy von Pink Paislee verwendet.

Hier noch ein Detailbild:

Auf die Plätze...

Today, I created a layout with one of the challenges of CSI - Color stories Inspiration:

I was inspired by the scene with the waves and the sea.

I used: sailboat, ocean themed elements, architectural elements, birds and clouds.

I used the awesome beachhouses from creative depot to create some decoration.

The sentiment is a stamp from klartext stamps

Diesen Monat ist patriotischer Monat bei Lasting Memories.. Da sind die Amerikaner ja ganz groß dabei. Deshalb ist nun das Thema: rot, weiß und blau. Aber die Farben passen auch perfekt zu maritimen Themen!

For this label, I mixed stamps from creative depot and Klartext.

Leinen los

New month, new challenges at the Lasting Memories challenge blog! The first assignment is to use the colors red and white predominantly on your layout. 

This reallly challenges me, because red is not my favorite color. 

I found some photos from our kids in this red sailboat and they were perfect for this challenge!

For decoration, I used the cute stamps from creative depot and fussy cut them out.

I used a stencil and white texture paste on the red acrylic paint.

im Herzen barfuß

Eine neue Challenge bei Challenge up your life is online! Ihr wundert euch vielleicht, warum heute, bisher sind die Challenges doch immer samstags gestartet. Wir vom Designteam haben uns überlegt, dass wir aus dem bisher 2-wöchentlichen, einen monatlichen Blog machen. So habt ihr mehr Zeit für eure Kreationen und man kann sich besser merken, wann die nächste Challenge startet.

Hello scrappy friends! I know you are waiting anxious for the next challenge!

We decided to change from a 2-weekly to a monthly challenge. From now on you have more time to create your cards, layouts etc. appropriate to the assignment and it is easier to keep the date in mind when the next challenge starts.

Ok, ich bin mit meinem Post etwas spät dran, aber besser spät als nie. ;-)

Für mein Layout habe ich getupftes Vellum hinter mein Foto geklebt. Dann habe ich mit den tollen Textstempeln von Creative.Depot auf einen Streifen Vellum den Titel weiß embosst. Ich liebe den Effekt! 

Die netten Strandhäuser sind auch bei dem Set dabei. Ich habe sie ausgeschnitten und mit Abstandspads aufgeklebt. 

Danke für deinen Besuch!

sea

Our new challenge for this month is online on the Lasting Memories layout challenges blog:

Look up at the Sky Day is a fun day to check out what's up there. 'Ya never know what might be up there. An asteroid or meteor may be on its way. A solar eclipse could be on display. A flock of geese or birds may be overhead (you may need to duck for cover!). or, the clouds may be forming into interesting characters and patterns.

Take a few minutes out from your busy day to look up at the sky today. If nothing else, the break from the routine will be relaxing.

LM #442 - Create a layout about what you see looking up at the sky

And this is mine: I love the sea and the cloudy sky with the sun shining through.

I used some cloud cutfiles from the cut shoppe and Just nick. The stripe stamp is my newest achievement from the "Stempelmesse Süd" from anne581.

Thanks for stopping by!
