Distress Markers from Tim Holtz and Ranger

Hello!

Lately I've been coloring a lot with my Distress Markers. I know I've said this before but I love them! This coloring technique fits me!

Below you'll find some results.

 Trying to do some blending

 The technique starts to set

 Not too detailed - really fun to color - as well as the Lillybelle

I also want to share my hair coloring combo with you - even if you want to color from the brightest blonde to the darkest brunette - this combo is a winner!

scattered straw

mustard seed

wild honey

spiced marmelade

tea dye

vintage photo

walnut stain

If you don't like the most bright and intense colors you could just skip the color mustard seed and spiced marmelade.

To color the hair of my Gorjuss I've used black soot and pumice stone.

I'm trying to color some red hair - I'll get back to you on that!

Happy coloring!

Shopping times two

Hello!
A week ago on Saturday my summer schedule at work started. I worked until my day off on Thursday. And of course I got sick that day, isn't it just typical to get sick when you start to relax for a little bit? *sight*

Anyway, now I feel a lot better and I'm going to continue my schedule which runs from tomorrow 'til Friday.

I've spent this rainy day at Nettan shopping with a 25% discount.

 Stuff from today

Stuff from last Friday

Hope you all continue to have a great weekend!

Celebrate happiness!

Hello!
Just wanted to share some of my happiness - I past my test at the University and I won this challenge at Crafty Creation with my baby layout. :)

Have a great weekend all you scrappers out there!

Welcome to the jungle

Hello!
Between the pink baby layouts I would like to share another type of layout. The pictures is taken at a museum in Stockholm, called Aquaria. They had a lot of cool stuff to check out and among those things they had a jungle area - and the pictures are from that place.

Baby album page 1

Hello!
Have now finished my course at the University, I'm still waiting for the resault though. I should get it in a couple of weeks and I really hope I passed!

I've started on a new project - a baby album. It was really fun to look at the old pictures from when I was little. And I managed to process 99 pictures from age 0-2.

Here is the first layout of the album:

flowers - PY hobby

swirl - PY hobby

charm - PY hobby

lace - from stash

ribbon - from stash

pearls - PY hobby

magnolia die

A fantastic tool is the white acrylic paint! Here I've used it on the spider web paper behind the picture (best seen in the last picture). Before it was cerise pink, now it is light pink!

Challenges:
Bearly mine challenge - bingo #39 (pearls, flowers, lace)
CraftyCalendarChallenge - flowers in bloom
CraftyCreationsChallenge - how charming #174

Hope you've found some inspiration!
