Wow, I almost forgot about that I made this album in January and February. It’s like a mini scrapbooking album with photos from Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. It is a spiral book with pages in various sizes and designs and it had already the Christmas design...

or maybe better card making on a budget! Last weekend I saw a card with a nice design and thought I could try this and suddenly I had the idea to use up the tons of Christmas paper offcuts I have collected over the years. As a true “crafter” I can’t...

Today was the big day – finally! Together with Vada I was at the Industrial Baroque “Tea for 2” Workshop held by the famous Anna Dabrowska-Pekocka (Finnabair). I am following her blog for quite a while now and I am always amazed by her designs. When...

Now another first for me: scrapping a photo on canvas! Actually scrapping photos as such is new to me. I somehow didn’t think I have the right photos for that. But it all changed when I saw a beautiful canvas at the last Craft Fair in May. I was allowed to take...
