Scrapiniec Guest Designers

Today we are happy to have guest designers from Scrapiniec - first Polish laser die-cut chipboard manufacturer. This month Scrapiniec is one of the prize sponsors - be inspired by Scrapiniec team and play with us at Berry71Bleu this month!


This months theme is: Favorite Movie or TV Show & the challenge is: Multiple Photos. The host of this great challenge is Kay Fatula.


Your project must be centered around your favorite movie or TV show & must consist of more than one photo.  You can use the same photo twice or use different photos--the choice is yours.  If you just can't pick one movie or TV show--then feel free to center your project on your favorite actor or actress, this counts as well.




Inspiration from Scrapiniec DT members:

Alicja Panewka

My name is Alicja "Asica" Panewka. In scrapbooking world I'm known as "asica.p". I was born and rised in small, beatutiful polish town - Cieszyn. Following my heart last year I moved to another beautiful city - Galway in Ireland where I live with three lovely boys: my partner and two sons.


One of my favorite movies is Chocolat. I like this film because of Johnny Deep of course  but also for the lovely pictures, sweet decorations and beautiful music.Tag  which I received perfectly fit in the composition of my LO.

Chipboard pieces from Scrapiniec:

Tea House
Zawieszki
Latawce
Tea House




Full time mum, wife, crafter. Since 2006 I'm always covered with bits of paper. I love vibrant colours, nice patterns, warm socks and tea.







When got my tag for this layout my mind went blank- how to make a page featuring the only fruit I'm allergic to? Then i found out the theme and it all came together. I'm a big TV series fan and I usually have something playing in the background when I craft. Strawberries were a perfect match for my favourite show that may cause pie addiction- "Pushing Daisies".

I live with my family in Poland, in a small village near the Baltic Sea.
My scrapbooking passion is creating layouts (the most with pictures of my two sons), but I am also addicted to making albums and frames for pictures.Some time ago I discovered the opportunities hidden in canvas and now I often make canvas with pictures, and I do this with a great pleasure :-) I like to play with colours very much - my projects are full of colours, a little messy, always splashed with different media.









Jurrasic Park is not my favourite movie now, but I remember the time when I was much younger and I was fascinated by dinosaurs. Now my kids are Especially after visiting Dinosaur Park in Łeba.

I'm a color-addict scrapper, I love making layouts, art journals, albums, notebooks, sometimes even traditional cards! I love any form, where I can work with paper and media, my favorite are color sprays and mists, gesso, paints, inks and many many other scrapbooking supplies. I love to create many different moods in my works. I love to create in unusual way, using a lot of color bursts, splashes, shadows, than I can show and transfer into paper my feelings and my emotional state.
I'm a teacher and I love to work with children, I love to show them all the life's colors and shades. I love to sing and do something that makes other people smile :)



I used 3 snapshots from "Amelia", a lovely french movie about looking for love and happiness in life.
I love that part, when small Amelia is eating fruits from her fingers and when adult Amelia does many other things, that make her happy.



This movie is one of my favorite movies, it brings me hope, that happiness is waiting somewhere for everyone, even sad and lonely. And it says, that we are born to collect things (places, people, moments) that we love - it's never too late.


I used 7dots studio papers with bright, happy colors, some bright colors of glimmer mists and distress stain, some masks and gesso and some lovely, romantic chipboards from Scrapiniec.

Kay's Kreative Korner was opened in 2009. It began simply as a way of sharing a few of my handmade items. I opened my shop with a couple of hand stamped cards, butterflies & a few pre-made scrapbook pages. Within a year, I stopped making cards and decided to concentrate on specific embellishments--I went with the butterfly. I've always admired the butterfly & what it symbolizes. Change, transformation, a new start, beginnings...with this concept I started making scrapbook embellishments based on existing butterflies from all around the world as well as butterflies that I have designed myself. Each butterfly is hand cut & carefully assembled by me.

Within a few months I started to add transparent 'Glass' butterflies which are clear in nature but add a very bold & unique touch to any crafty project. My latest creations are the 'Rose' butterfly collection which are butterflies with roses on their wings & the 'Message on Wings' butterfly collection with sentiments printed on their wings that can be personalized.

In addition to the butterflies I specialize in vines & beaded flowers. Each item is handmade with much TLC and careful precision. My greatest reward is seeing how others use my embellishments on their own projects & pages or to decorate a special occasion.

7 Dots Studio Guest Designers - vol. 4

Hello :)

We have last blog post from 7 Dots Studio Guest Team. Muriel Aujean and Louise Nelson show us their Simple Pleasures.


The theme of May challenge are SIMPLE PLEASURES



A favorite photo


This photo was taken near a refuge in the Alps, where we spent the night with my kids. Yhe only bathroom was this basin. A bathroom with stunning view! It's why I decided to do the layout with a very big picture. Just some little embellishments and some dripping of watercolors are necessary.







Someone Special

This layout was inspired by the colour theme of the mood board. It isn't a colour scheme I have created with before so it really pushed me out of my comfort zone :).

7 Dots Studio Guest Designers - vol.3

Hello :)

We are back with 7 Dots Studio inspiration. This month challenge hosted by Tusia Lech is SIMPLE PLEASURES and here is inspirational board.




The theme of the May challenge is SIMPLE PLEASURES


Memories



When I saw Tusia's beautiful Mood board, I knew that the Domestic Goddess Collection would be a perfect color match and a great chance to scrap this picture of my girl and I on Mother's day last year. 



For my background, I cut strips and weaved together. I then applied a coat of gesso with a plastic bag, added mist and inks, and used the gorgeous Nature Walk Damask Mask for added texture. I was also inspired by the beautiful flowers and butterflies so of course there was some stamping using the butterfly stamps in the Nature Walk Stamp Collection.



When you're around



First I started to think about the "Simple Pleasures" theme. And the idea came to my mind: what can be more simple pleasure than to spend time with your loved one. So I decided to create a card for someone special that reflects the idea.


After that I look at the mood board again and was inspired by the bright and vibrant colors and flower compositions. So that's how this card appeared)))

Our life is full of pleasures and beautiful moments. But daily routine keeps them hidden. Just kids can enjoy every day monents without any reason. On this photo my kids are enjoying swinging their legs in the water. What can be better than their sincere smiles?
