Late Wednesday update

This week's sketch is one made by me, Jeanette, and hopefully it can inspire you to be a little bit creative. Get your patterned papers and decos out and start scrapping - this could be used both for layouts and cards, I believe:



What are you waiting for? Make yourself a nice cup of tea, and get scrapping, now! :D

Take care!
/ Jeanette

So it's Wednesday...

...and that means that I should update, right?!

Of course I will, too!
These beautiful pieces of art are made for the challenges I posted last time. The first LO and the card (I added the detail pictures too, because they're just so good) are made by the very sweet & talented Lene - she used the kit Virkelig Vintage (meaning "Very Vintage") from her kit shop Ecclectic kits for them both.
Doesn't that just look yummy?!

The blue layout is made by the amazing Maja who's beautiful style you might recognize, since been a guest designer here before.

Thanks to you both for playing along!
:D

Happy New Year to you all!

I am gonna start this year with some good news.
Since I have been unable to keep this blog rolling and running the way I intended, I asked two of my very bestest of friends (and fave scrappers/card makers) to join me in keeping it going - aaaaand to my delight, they accepted!

So... give it up for Tettiz and DrAnnika (a.k.a Jeanette and Annika) who are my new co-authors of this blog!

To celebrate, here are two new sketches and two challenges to get you started with your Scrappy New Year.

Apart from my sketches (originally drawn as one for cards and one for LOs but that's up to you to interpret as you wish) you can see my photo of a willow, right? The colours were extracted from the photo using this brilliant web site, and I'd like for you to create a card or an LO or something altered using those colours.
No - you don't have to use them all. You can add others, of course, but we prefer if you keep your work pretty close to the original colours.

And the last challenge?
Chose ONE word that you'll live by during this year to come. Scrap it.
This is for your BoM so no cheating. No hubbies, children, pets or else.
It has to be a photo of YOU.
Apart from that - it's all up to you.

Have fun!
Mail the reults to me at inspirascrap at gmail dot com for a chance to appear on the blog.

Love/

Sketch #23 - and the interpretations

First of all - I'd like to say THANK YOU to everyone who participated and who sent me kind notes regarding both this and my other (less fun) post, the other day.
You guys are the reason why I do this.
♥

Second of all. I couldn't choose. No way! You're all so amazingly talented and each and every interpretation had it's own charm and personal touches that made the unique, special and oh so beautiful!

...so I decided to showcase them ALL!

You guys ROCK!
Thanks so much for playing along!

Ps. I'm sorry your names don't show up, but I didn't want to ruin your pictures with watermarks. If you click on a photo, you'll get to it's page, and the name of it's maker will be visible for you. Thanks!

Sketch #23 and a challenge

So, I've caught the flu and I'm too tired to organize this post.
Therefore, I am instead gonna let YOU do the job.

Here's what you do:
Use the following sketch.
Make a card, something altered or an LO with it.
When you save your picture, make sure you name it 50. yourname_LO/cardname.
For example, I'd name one 50. Zarah_Light of my Life.

MAIL your entry to me at inspirascrap[@]gmail.com before Sunday 11:59am PST (remove the brackets) and hold off posting it until I have gotten back to you.

Not only will I showcase some of the entries - I will also pick one (or more) people to be my guest designers.

Sound fun? Goodie!
Start creating!
