Prima December BAP -Love Is...

Prima's  December Build A Page Challenge

When I saw Magda's creative design, I knew Prima's square Stitch Stamp was perfect for this challenge.  I scrapped a photo of my husband and me on a trip to Florida summer 2012.  I picked the music paper from Finnabair's  Vintage Vanity A4 pad as an accent to symbolize my musician husband. You can find the post on Prima's blog here. 

And what a great design by Magda Bolinska.  

I played off the colors in the photo as my inspiration by painting on some Splash of Color Silks next to my stamping. Just fun, careless brush strokes as the Splash of Color silks were meant to be used. 

I also painted the Prima crystals at the bottom to blend in better.   The black washi tape from Prima's Engraver collection was ripped then glued.   I always like to secure my tape with glue to hold it better. 

Thanks for looking.  Consider playing along with the Prima BAP challenge.

This was created using the Flying Unicorn Kit of the Month - Rays of Magic.

It was packed with Prima goodies for me to create May's BAP. 

Prima's May BAP.
 This month the talented Marie-Nicolas Alliot created our build-a-page sketch!

My image was from an vintage Valentine card.  I just cut out the sweet little Cherub after I printed.

Scraps Of Elegance - March Kit - Spring's Promise

Welcome to Scraps of Elegance's reveal of Spring's Promise.  Gorgeous, romantic and packed with unique surprises. 

This is what I created:

Weekends:

This was also made using the color palette of the Prima PPP.  The color palette is all greens.  Scroll down a bit to see the palette.  

The image was from the Gecko Galz and I simply did a little photo shop altering for my needs.

This was created for the March sketch at Once Upon a Sketch created by Nadia Cannizzo.  The topic for the month is "Weekends,What does your weekend look like?"

My weekends are typically filled with music and dancing.  My husband is a musician so he is always practicing and filling the house with his talent.  As such, I tend to dance around the house a bit as he plays.  No fancy moves and definitely NO tutu.  But heck, a gal can dream of having better steps and a better dance costume than my ratty scrappy clothes that I usually wear when I am home, right?

My weekends always consist of relaxing with hot tea.  

My journalling says "Weekends are for dreaming, dancing and sipping hot tea."

Purse:

Here is a little purse wall decoration I created using an old Halloween wall decoration bought for about a dollar. 

This was made keeping the Prima PPP in mind as well.  I found the Prima Divine collection had all the greens I needed.  Easy!

Purple Angel:

This was based on the design by Charlotte Jenkins for the Scraps of Elegance sketch of the month challenge.  She is an amazing sketch artist so I thank her for continued inspiration.  

The image is from Moonlight Magic Free Images. 

Pink Canvas:
I had the most fun making this piece.   I am in love with the soft colors of the Prima Divine collection.

This is an 8"x10" canvas, lots of moulding paste, a mask,  some paints and mists, and a whole lot of Scraps of Elegance goodness.

 This was created for the Prima BAP using the amazing sketch this month by designer Marie-Nicolas Alliot.

Thanks for looking.   I value your time.
