Video Tutorial: 'Love to Love'

Hello everyone! This week's post is all about hearts, because the February stencil is already out and to celebrate the month of love it is called 'Love to Love'. It is pretty versatile, so I thought the best way to show it was to make a video tutorial '1 Stencil 5 Ways':
The stencil come with a large Mylar one and 6 kraft cardstock elements, with these I created a romantic pendant (above) and a couple of funky earrings:
I created in no time a set of colourful gel printed tags
A set of lovely embellishments to make cards or decorate a Midori
A home decor piece! Made out of a wooden box and corrugated cardstock:
And last but not least a couple of MixedMedia tags
I think this fits perfectly on the latest challenge Simon Says: All Loved Up

12 Months-12 Stencils: Scylla's Alphabet


In 2020 I've been releasing one new stencil every month, suitable especially for Bullet Journaling but that can be used for cardmaking, MixedMedia, Art Journaling and of course gel printing.
The January's stencil is called Scylla's Alphabet, perfect to trace out or to use as background stencil.Here some samples I made.
A card featuring Alice:

A multilayered gel printed background: 
A card with a gel printed background (the one I pulled during the Alice book video):


And last but not least (maybe you already see this BuJo page), where I used the stencils for the title, the sentiment and all the month numbers. I hope these stencils can improve a bit my pages during this year.

Have a lovely weekend :-)

Alice in Wonderland Trifold card and Bullet Journal

A while ago I've been given a set of blank cards with openings such as oval, circle and a window. I thought that putting three together  these would be perfect to feature my new Alice in 'Giogioland' stencils:
From the colourful tea pot pours a rainbow, of course
How lovely is this Alice through the window :
The teapot and cups are coloured with Distress Inks, to make the rainbow I glued glitter to a piece of shaped acetate.
I used the larger version of this stencil to embellish the January page in my Bullet Journal:
 


You can find these stencils in my Etsy shop:

VideoTutorial: Alice in Wonderland Altered Book and new stencils

Hello and welcome back to this crowded week, this time I introduce the new 'Alice in Giogioland' set of stencil. I've always have a soft spot for Alice and its crazy characters (and the movie!), so I really enjoyed designing and using these stencils. I created several cards and I altered an old book. In this post and video I show you the whole process with some bumps along the road (if you are curious, watch the video :-))

Cats and details (never forget the importance of little details)
A secret drawer!!
A mirror behind Alice...
And of course nothing less than glitter from a teapot

These Alice new stencils are available in my Etsy shop in two different sizes along with 5 more brand new designs:
