Heike`s AugenBlick

 Good morning my dearest blog reader, with the lyrics of the song by Boyz II Men, I say goodbye to my design team work for the company  13arts. How do I say goodbye, to what we had. The good times that made us laugh outweighed the bad. I thought we`d get to see forever. But forever`s gone away. My sincere thanks go to Aida, you are the best boss anyone could ask for. I wish you and your family all the best for the future. But now to my last scrapbook layout in mixed media style. I played along with the City Lights paper collection and lots of embellishments from the Rosalie paper collection. Lots of 13arts mediums of course for colour and texture. How do I say goodbye... A closer look to my scrapbook page: I added texture with a mix of multipurpose gel medium, Rainbow colour turquoise and colored grit gray light to the stencil Tattered diamonds. DIE cutting leaves and flowers in black give a good combination with the Rosalie embellishments. For the highlight on mine cutting le...

 Good Morning, and welcome to my 13arts design team work for the company 13arts. It is May already can you belive it. It is also one of my favorite months of the year. Nature begins to enchant us  with lovely colors and the sun warms our soul. Finally I can enjoy my beautiful hamrock in the garden surround with bird chirping. But anyway lets talk a little bit about my page. TRENDY... A closer look to my background. I chose for my background a sheet from the In Love paper collection from 13arts. Which I covered with two layers of Clear Gesso on the front side and one layer on the  back side. After that I added Black Gesso with the silicon brush to the stencil "Spring Flowers" from the Pastel Spring collection. and I added the Black Gesso also randomly to my page. Following by White Gesso splatters. For more intrest on my page I stamped with the Vintage Letter stamp and Black Archival Ink.

 A beautiful statement and quote about what can happen in the Spring month of May. Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you. - Nathaniel Hawthorne- an American novelist and short story writer. His works often focus on history, norality and religion.  Welcome May and welcome my dear blog reader, for my first inspiration in the months of May, I designed for the new  13arts IG challenge a scrapbook layout in mixed media style. Our May mood board with lots of brown, rust and cream colors screams for a vintage project.   I started on a sheet of the Down Under paper collection.  Which has a red, rust colored background already. So that was perfect for what I had in mind. My stencils which I used are Tattered Diamonds and Lamps from the Industrial Zone collection. My decoration comes from different paper collections:  Industrial Zone, Magnolia Dreams and Mr: Handso...

Following with randomly stamp images  and black gesso here and there .
