Playful

 
Hi, there, I'd like to share a layout I made using the beautiful sketch from
Let's Get Sketchy and combine the colors from CCG Inspiration Board #245.
Here is my layout.
The challenge at Simon Says Stamp and Show this week ask chellenge players to
use their favorite ink to create a project. My favorite inkpad is ColorBox
pigment inkpad and fluid Chalk inkpad from Clearsnap. I used these inkpads
to color the background of this layout. Here is the close up.

This is the beautiful sketch from LGS.


Thank you so much for stopping by. Hope you will join us for this fun
challenge. For more inspiration, please check our talented designers at
their blogs or Color Combos Galore.

Life La Vie En Rose

Hello, everyone, what a beautiful Sunday! Let's start it with a piece of beautiful
music - the theme song of our second Scarp and Music challenge.


Yes, it's such a pretty song that inspired me to make this layout with the beautiful
vintage Prima paper as background and metalic color sprayed roses and
some more embellishments.
In the photo, Natalie was playing her iPhone and so enjoyed browsing the photos
that she took. Here is a close up photo of the details.
 
Due to 15th May
Reveal 19th May

Sketch #2 by Amarilys Doria


Music: La Vie En Rose (Édith Piaf)
Des yeux qui font baisser les miens,
Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche,
Voilà le portrait sans retouche
De l'homme auquel j'appartiens
[Refrain]
Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Il me parle tout bas,
Je vois la vie en rose.
Il me dit des mots d'amour,
Des mots de tous les jours,
Et ça me fait quelque chose.
Il est entré dans mon coeur
Une part de bonheur
Donc je connais la cause.
C'est lui pour moi,
Moi pour lui dans la vie,
Il me l'a dit, l'a juré
Pour la vie.
Et dès que je l'aperçois
Alors je sens en moi
Mon coeur qui bat
Des nuits d'amour à plus finir
Un grand bonheur qui prend sa place
Des ennuis des chagrins s'effacent
Heureux, heureux à mourir.
Quand il me prend dans ses bras
Il me parle tout bas,
Je vois la vie en rose.
Il me dit des mots d'amour,
Des mots de tous les jours,
Et ça me fait quelque chose.
Il est entré dans mon coeur
Une part de bonheur
Donc je connais la cause.
C'est toi pour moi,
Moi pour toi dans la vie,
Il me l'a dit, l'a juré
Pour la vie.
Et dès que je l'aperçois
Alors je sens en moi
Mon coeur qui bat
Hold me close and hold me fast
The magic spell you cast
This is la vie en rose

When you kiss me heaven sighs
And tho I close my eyes
I see la vie en rose

When you press me to your heart
I'm in a world apart
A world where roses bloom

And when you speak...angels sing from above
Everyday words seem...to turn into love songs

Give your heart and soul to me
And life will always be
La vie en rose
 
Pin It
 
Hope you enjoy the music and join us for this fun challenge at Scrap & Music.

Adventure

Hello, my blog friends.  Time to play new sketch at Sketchabilities.
This is my DT sample for this challenge. Click to enlarge the photo.
It's always fun to step out comfort zone. So on this layout, I try to use
more metal embellishments and more dark and metalic colors. I also got
inspiration from Finnabair.

WOYWW - Metal Bird House

Hello, blog friends, hope you all have a great week so far. I was not creative
last week since I was very busy with kids activities and volunteering. Plus
my eyes really gave me a hard time (dry eye + allergy) that I had to take a break
from internet or electronic devices.  Since I'm feeling a bit better now, I'd
like to share with you this bird house that I made about two weeks ago
and it's currently on my work desk.
I had fun to spray, color and attach all the embellishments on this
little bird house. I sprayed the house with dylusions ink spray and color
those metal gears, buttons, and diecuts with metallic acrylic paint.
I've made a layout using the same techniques and materials, check here.
I really appreciate that you stop by and hope you have a wonderful day.
Please check WOYWW to see more work desks around the world if you like.
Have fun!!
Meihsia ^_^
