Play with paint and stamps...

Before I started scrapping, I stamped a lot... so I have a nice collection of various stamps to choose from whenever I'm inspired...

add the fact that I love minialbums (I'm quit know for that at the DT team I'm working for...) and my love for paint and you get this:

A small wooden mini art journal... the piece on top is an altered domino stone... and the iner pages are made from black cardstock... the whole thing is 18 by 12 cm, a nice size for quick pages...

Are there any (art)stamps in your stash? If so, get them out, grab some paint and play... oh, and don't forget to show your artwork, okay?

Have a fab weekend!

Same Pattern



Friday night is always Miss P/M night. Yesterday we had some friends over and it was way to late to post something. So today I make it up to you.

I used the Pattern from PJ to create this Lo.

It's great to do it like this. PJ was inspired by my painting, so made the Bee waxed Lo and I was inspired by the Pattern on her Lo. It is great to work like this and create together.

We are still looking for your Lo's to insprire others so let us know if you had a great idea.

You can also find us at http://www.lifeandscrapping.typepad.com/ and at http://www.mikascrap.typepad.com/

See you next week. Mika

Play...

Mika and I thought it would be nice to show you what our intentions are with this blog... it's all about getting inspired and do something with it...

So...my inspiration piece for this was Mika's last post... I used the white background, the texture (looked a bit canvas-like to me) the flower image, the black letters, the piece of paper at the left with the silver embellishment and bit of that pink color...

Added a bit more and came up with this:

If you like to try something different for a while, I highly recommend a project like this: it's a canvasboard, decorated with paint and embellishments, 'sealed' with melted beeswax!

Normaly we don't share close ups, but to show you the beeswax better I made a few extra photo's:




Inspired? I hope so... and if you are, do something with it... go play... and then share it here by adding in a link in the comment section...

Have fun, and a great weekend!
