Thank you so much, Etsy France!
Sketch Challenge: Above
Today i am participating in the "Ruby Rock-It sketch contest on the Page Maps blog.
This is the sketch:
My photo:
The photo was taken a few years ago in my former fabulous life as a flight attendant. It's the picture of another plane crossing our route.
And the final layout:
To create the page i used brown packaging paper and plain white paper. Both are crumpled, distressed with Tim Holtz Distress Ink Vintage Photo and sprayed with green paint and brown watercolor.
( Real mists are not in my budget right now, but acrylic paint thinned with water in a perfume spray bottle creates the same effect).
I also included paper from the Glitz Design Happy Travels collection as well as two metal signs from airplane galley containers.
Btw, i am in no way related with First Choice Airways, but isn't that the most awesome name for an airline??
LOVE it!!
Other materials used:
- Heidi Grace border
- turquoise ink pad
- green acrylic paint
- light brown watercolor
- burlap
- cardstock
- my Silhouette Cameo
- foam stickers
- a compass stamp
- a piece of burlap
- oversized paperclip

Travel: A Cruise to Norway (or two)
In 2010 we went on a mini cruise to Oslo/ Norway. This week we booked the same cruise again, right after the cruise company had published a coupon code in the internet: a three-day cruise for two people for 0€!!!
You can't beat that!
Turned out later that the publication was a mistake and the code was actually intended to be used by employees only, but since the company had already confirmed our booking we were allowed to go.
So, here we go:

Our Wedding Album - The Cover
Our wedding album is almost finished and i can finally start sharing some photos.
To match the style of our wedding, I kept the design clean and simple on most pages, moreover i did not want to end up with an ultra-fat album, so i tried to avoid adding too much dimensional stuff, such as stickers and embellishments.
The album base is made from used packaging material such as cereal boxes and similar, and for every page i share i will try to give credit to the paper designers, as far as i remember.
So, let's start with the album cover:
Entirely created from Melissa Frances "Fifth Avenue" as well as a DIY clay starfish, Baker's Twine from The Twinery, Divine Twine from Whisker Graphics, and jute twine.
