graph'it markers

Hello!

I was given a challenge by Graph'it to only use these 9 new colours on a card. I immediately thought of using my Home Sweet Home stamp set. It wasn't too hard. To create darker shades I would just keep layering and build up the colour and to lighten a colour I used the blender marker 0000.

I did use the colour Glass on the window (so a cheated just a smidge). I love Graph'it markers, it's the only marker I use to colour my stamped images.

celebrate the season

Hello! I hope you all had a lovely weekend...we did! :)

I did a project with my kids...diy toilet paper roll snowmen...Mia of coarse wanted a pink hat and scarf for her snowman (I crocheted the hats and scarves...I used the half double crochet stitch...pretty much winged it...if you'd like me to show you how I crocheted the hat and scarf just let me know!)...

I instagramed this one... I had the kids paint the rolls white, then they mod podged the rolls and covered them with white glitter. I made the noses out of polymer clay, found some twigs outside (poked holes and glued them in place)....and we just glued everything in place...they are very pleased with their snowmen! :)

Pop by the Jane's Doodles blog to check out my card for today's post...and a quick reminder that all our Christmas clear and digital stamps are on sale! :)

Have a great day! xo

CARDS magazine publication

Hello!
Hope all is well! It's a gorgeous sunny day here in Zagreb. Hope it's sunny where ever you are! :)
I wanted to share a card of mine that was published in CARDS August issue....

I don't know about you but I'm pretty bummed that all these magazines have gone digital...I refuse to read a book on an ipad or one of those ipad thingy's that's for reading books....NEVER!!! I know, I konw, never say never...but I'm a paper and pencil gal and I hope that'll never change! I think having the option is great...we're all different but when I read I get myself a REAL book...I want to feel the paper! Anyways...here's the card!

I used my Home Sweet Home stamp set and paper pieced all my stamped images. I then distressed them with Tim Holtz distress inks.

Have a great one! xo

NB Hobby & Art tutorials

Hello!

Hope all is well! :)

I'm sharing some projects that I did for NB Hobby (NB Hobby's webpage got a facelift!! LOVE it!!)...for my project I did a paper piecing tutorial...just a simple card to demonstrate paper piecing...you can find this tutorial here. It's in Croatian but I do believe that soon the NB Hobby webpage will have an English option too!

Ovaj 'Paper Piecing' tutorijal možete naći tu.

This cute owl is from our you're a hoot! stamp set (which is also available at NB Hobby)

Here's some sneak peeks of another step by step tutorial I did for NB Hobby. I just wanted to show my process when doing a layout...this one is of my daughter. Don't have a tag die..make your own!! :) This heart stamp is from my you're a hoot! stamp set.

Još jedan tutorijal 'Scrapbook layout' za NB Hobby! Nemate 'tag' nastavak... jednostavno možete si napraviti sami... ovaj srce pečat je iz 'You're a hoot!' set koji možete naći ovdje.

I LOVE layering and adding different textures to my work and if you're just starting out at scrapbooking I think using black and white photos make it easier to work with your papers and other elements.

OBOŽAVAM raditi sa slojevima, dodavajući različite teksture mojim radovima, a ako ste tek početnik u scrapbookingu mislim da korištenje crno-bijele fotografije olakšava rad s papirima i ostalim elementima. 

Don't be afraid to draw/write your own embellishments...I simple wrote my text out and drew a little border and drew up a cute little arrow. I don't particularily like my hand writing but it makes it so much more personal.

Nemojte se bojati crtati / pisati vlastite ukrase... Jednostavno sam napisala tekst i nacrtala ukrasni rub, i izradila slatku malu strelicu. Ne sviđa mi se osobito moj rukopis, ali to čini moj rad mnogo osobniji. 

Here's the finished layout...all the materials I used can be found at NB Hobby for the full tutorial go here!

Evo kako izgleda rad... svi korišteni materijali se mogu naći u trgovini NB Hobby, cijeli tuorijal možete naći ovdje! 

Have a great day!!

Jane's Doodles & NB Hobby

Hi!

I'm very excited to say that you can find some Jane's Doodles stamp at my favourite craft shop in Zagreb...NB Hobby & Art!! I went down to the shop and demonstrating some stamping techniques and projects with a group of lovely ladies and this little canvas is one of them....

I used my Home Sweet Home stamp set to create this little scene (the heart stamp is from you're a hoot! stamp set)......

One problem with this project......should I keep the houses or the cute little owl....how cute is he all alone on that hill!! :)

Anyways I'm sooo exhausted...I'm afraid I was horrible (with the demonstrating...I was so nervous and shy...) but I did have fun and my girl Tea was so helpful! :)

Have a great night...or day...where ever you are! :)
