35, it´s OK!

Hi & Welcome to a new Layout from me, Jana!
I turned 35 this year, and i had some days where i was thinking "gosh, you´re getting OLD!"
But, it´s ok to getting older... i learned a lot in this year, about me, about life... i love life! sure i do have some hard times as a mom of 3... but it´s ok! it´s my life and i really enjoy it!
On this Layout i used a whole pack of Chipboard Alphas, and all these Letters are a symbol for all my weird thoughts! Head full, got it?!


i used Gesso as a base for my letters, i just used it as glue! I used my Finger to get some Gesso on the letters too. But just a bit, i don´t wanted to cover them up completely!


The "POW" stands for the years, they gone by so quick! too quick! pow, you´re old! ;)


and here is the complete Layout! i had fun getting this one together!


i used the following UmWowStudio things...

Thanks for stopping by, i wish you all a great day!

10 min... Thank YOU!


Hi and Welcome, Jana here with a 10 min project... cute and simple!
I really love to have some finished Bags, Tags, Cards and Boxes around me to surprise my friends... or for the "oh no, i totally forgot....." situations ;)
These bags are made with a handfull of papers, some doilies and of course some UmWowStudio supplies!!

the black white striped bags are my favorites and i think they would be cute halloween bags too! we´re not celebrating halloween here in germany, so... "thank you" bags for me!






STARS! i love stars, i could use them one every single project!!



and here are the things i used for my projects





Thanks for stopping by!
i wish you all a great Friday and spooky Weekend!

Daydreamer!


Hi and Hello, Jana here with a new Layout for you...
I had this photo in my box of photos i want to use for over 2 years now! Time to get it on a Layout!
In the "Inspired Flair" is one with a DayDreamer on it, perfect for this project...




and the middle one really is a DayDreamer... and this photo shows him, lost in thoughts... feets in the saltwater... enjoying the day!


it was a cloudy day, so the chipboard clouds are also perfect for this layout!
ok, the stars are not - but they matches the dreamy feel of the theme!


some stamps, a touch of gold... some splatters and some thread and i call it done!


i really love this layout and i really love to use chipboard pieces on my projects!
here are the things i used on this layout...

Good Morning


Hi everyone, Jana here with a new Layout! I had this photo from my little one and i knew i wanted to use the "Make a wish" flair button... i took this photo around his first birthday (maybe before...maybe after...) and i make some wishes for my boys. Not only on birthdays... but ya know, as a mom!


He just waked up and i really love his little tired face! I really miss his baby face! He will be 6 very soon... nothing to see from my little baby! "Mom, i am a BIG boy, don´t call me BABY!!" ;)


This Layout is kinda clean, i just used some color behind the stars and the big &... just a tiny bit...
and here is the complete Layout!


I used some StazOn Ink to get the little stars black... love the touch of black! Some gold enamel dots, some black splatters and the word shine... title is, Make a wish & shine!

These are the things i used on the Layout.





Thanks for stopping by!
i wish you all a great weekend

Let´s make some {messy} cards...


Hi and Hello, Jana here with a little Tutorial or Step-by-step post...
i am not a card making person but sometimes i am happy when i create some... never enough cards, kwim?!
This post is a bit longer, so grab some coffee or tea and enjoy :)

These are the things i used for my project today


Gesso/Modelling Paste, aquarelle colors, thread, mask, flairs, clouds and some black cards oh and white cardstock.

i started with the mask and some gesso

during the drying time i started to alter the little clouds, i used my finger for that

when everything dried i started to bring some color on the cards. i used the packaging technique and the aquarelle colors, but i also added some glitter mists.

here you can see the finished color part and after that i started to add my elements... some paper hearts, some flairs... thread and clouds...
i also added some labels and stamps




and here are my finished cards... i really love how they turned out!


the things i used - linked

Boom!


Hi everyone, Jana here! I want to share a fun Layout with you! 
I took this photo in 2010 and it shows my little one, a part from him, and a roboter he was playing with! He was eating him...I love this photo so much and i wanted to scrap it for ages now! Never had the perfect Idea... but after i got my UmWowStudio order i totally knew what i wanted to use.... 


This Set is just awesome! I mean... BOOM! Just the perfect touch... BOOM! aka DONE! aka... eaten! So fun!
