New card

Yesterday I got a cool gift - small planner (in German) with cute drawings (1 per week).
I'm sure you'll see a lot of these drawings in the future :-)
Anyway - this card was inspired by the sketch of Challenge 31 in @ "Yotzot" (Israeli blog).
I used my November counterfeit kit and I think it's cute...
What do you think? :-)

Thanks for stopping by...

New layout: Kite

It's been a while...
I wanted to create a layout for a while now, but finally was able to do it...
I took the sketch from "Yotzot's" challenge #11 - with the minimalism concept and created this layout.
I used the papers from a counterfeit kit I created about 2-3 months ago (and didn't use so far) - same as this layout, and one more, which will be published by the end of the month.

I appreciate your comments :-)
I hope to post more often...

Ready to go... New layout

I created the background paper a while ago with acrylic paints and glimmer mists and from time to time I tried to see if I can use it, and gave it another rest...
This time - I used it to create my layout, that is inspired by challenge #6 (sketch challenge) @ Yotzot.
I used a picture I took almost 5 years ago... Amazing how the years go by...
Another challenge is the 2nd challenge of the counterfeit kit: Photo Focus... I took the picture of the layout on the same corner of the couch where Mor was sitting when I took the original photo. I think it's cute... Anyway - I added more pictures, for better view. Needless to say - I was using the papers from my counterfeit kit...

I appreciate your comments :-)

Passover 2011 layout

Hmmm.... 

After I chose the papers to my first counterfeit kit I created this layout, thinking about the 5th challenge of the new Israeli blog - 'Yotzot'. Where do you get your inspiration from...? I think I get inspired mostly from my everyday life... Sometimes I find myself taking pictures and thinking of the layout / papers / concept of  using these pictures to document our life in a way we would love to remember...

Anyway - this picture was taken on Passover eve 2011. The "famous song" Ma Nishtana? (what has changed) - I have a lot of things to say about it... It brings up many memories, not so good... Since I was the youngest child (and the youngest has to sing it - ask the questions) - I remember being stressed weeks before, trying to think how can I avoid it, trying to convince my brother to sing a long with me... Always thought I don't want to "make this show".

Now, as a mother, with 2 girls that LOVE to perform (every Friday eve they sing and dance to my parents) - I don't think they suffer from it, but I try to understand each and every time if they do it because they "must" or because they want to...

About the layout: I messed-up the title a little, didn't calculate the required space... oops

I added the butterflies - matching the same position on the papers - as a symbol for freedom (one of Passover's names).

I sewed (using my Sew Easy) the papers to each other - to add texture and interest to the page...

I appreciate your comments!
