Every age can be enchanted- 2D Art Journaling!

 Hello to all!

Happy Saturday!

"what could be more beautiful than a dear old lady growing wise with age? Every age can be enchanting, provided you live within it." - Brigette Bardot

It doesn't mean giving into our age, it simply means adapting to it. Ageing is inevitable. Our hair will turn grey and our skin and our joints will loosen so just make sure you choose earrings and lipstick to match your hair color, and wear clothes that will hold you in a little - no big deal.

At your age, you become more relaxed with yourself, more accepting of others, less judgemental and less worried about what people think. You are less restricted and can therefore be much more impulsive - if you want to wear spots, stripes and flowers all the same time you can. If you do pass wind people will think you are too old and polite to do that so won't believe for a moment it was you - so you can let it go and smile! Most of all enjoy the freedom to do all these things - you.ve earned it and you're allowed to now!

So here is my 2D Art Journal page!

First of all, I collected all the materials I need to create this page and fussy cut all the elements for both the pages.

I added some torn sticker rolls and a handmade paper randomly. Did some stamping.

Added those beautiful fussy cut flowers. with the frame to create a window.

A closer look:

The next page-

Added a seal wax stamp in dual-colour with a dried flower and highlighted it with a silver marker.

Finished off both the pages by adding some half pearls and splatters.

Hope you enjoyed the page!

Happy crafting!

Warm winter wishes!

 Hello everyone!

Happy Wednesday!

I decided to create a fun winter atmosphere scene card with the blue color theme and followed a sketch!!

I absolutely Love the Holiday Kids collection stamp set which has four different images, perfect for Christmas cards!

Here is the sketch:

I love how these papers work so nicely today!

I stamped the adorable sledge kid image with a cap and colored it with my Zigs. Then fussy cut them. I also added some silver glitter paste to the cap, sledge and muffler for some shimmer.

I used the Country Landscape die twice for a snowy hill. For the sky background, I created some silver glitter snowdrops. 

I finished off the card by adding a die-cut snowflake, added some ice snow with some silver glitter on it for some frost.

Love the sentiment die, perfect for this winter scene!

Happy crafting!
