Layout "Happy days" for C´est Magnifique

Hallo ihr Lieben,
heute mein drittes Layout für den Oktober bei C´est Magnifique Kits mit dem October Main Kit "Among the birds".
Dieses Layout ist ganz passend zur Jahreszeit, ganz herbstlich. Ich habe fast vollständig auf Verzierungen verzichtet, nur das kleine Kärtchen mit "Happy days" und ein paar bunte Fäden vervollständigen das Bild.
Der Hintergrund ist wieder ein Mixed Media Hintergrund (irgendwie geht es nicht ohne ;-) ), mit Schablone, Modellierpaste, verschiedenen Acrylfarben, Mica flakes und Sprühfarben.

My third layout I made for C´est Magnifique Kits with the October Main Kit "Among the birds", is,  fitting to the season, autumnal. Here I have omitted almost all embellishments, only the sentiment "Happy days" and some coloured threads are put in place. The background is a Mixed Media one again (I can´t stand against ;-) ), I used a stencil, modelling paste, different acrylic paints, mica flakes and mists.

from my stash: cardstock, modelling paste, stencil, acrylic paints from former C´est Magnifique kits, Mica flakes, sand paste, mists and threads

 Some close ups:

Vielen Dank fürs Vorbeischauen und noch ein schönes Herbstwochenende!
Thanks for dropping in here today and have a wonderful autumn weekend!

Layout "Hello Madame" for C´est Magnifique

Hallo zusammen, schön, dass ihr vorbeischaut!
Heute möchte ich euch mein nächstes Layout für C´est Magnifique Kits mit dem October Main Kit "Among the birds" und dem Flower Add On zeigen.

Hi all, nice to have you here!
Today I want to show you my next layout for C´est Magnifique Kits made with the October Main Kit "Among the birds"  and the Flower Add On. 

 Für diese Seite habe ich ein altes Foto einer hübschen Dame verwendet, das ich auf de Flohmarkt entdeckt hatte. Ich kenne sie zwar nicht, mag aber dieses Foto sehr.
This layout is made with an old photo I found at a flea market. Well, I don't know who the pretty lady is, but I like her picture.

from my stash: Gesso, embossing powders, mists, drawing ink, modelling paste and stencils, cutting dies

Hier einige Detailaufnahmen:
Here are some close ups:

Schaut die süßen Blumen an! Sind sie nicht absolut wunderbar?

Look at these pretty flowers! Aren't they adorable?!

Das Chipboard Wort habe ich mit scharzem Embossingpulver überzogen. Es hat aber nicht ganz gedeckt, sondern ist gerissen - ich liebe den Effekt!

I embossed the chipboard with black embossing powder, but it didn't cover everything, it cracked, and I love how it turned out!

Hier sieht man auf der rechten Seite noch eine der kleinen Filzblümchen, die andere habe ich ausgestanzt, oben drauf etwas Gesso und pink und silbernen Glitter darauf gestreut.

Here you can see the right edge, again one of the tiny flowers and one die-cut rose, on top some Gesso and sprinkled with some pink and silver glitter.

Der Kandelaber ist auch schwarz embossed, in das noch warme Embossingpulver habe ich noch etwas Gold-Sparkle-Glitter Embossingpulver (WOW) gestreut. Der Chipboard Rahmen ist auch embossed, hier in schwarz und pink.

The chandelier I embossed with black embossing powder and sprinkled some gold glitter embossing powder on top, when it was still hot. The chipboard frame I heat embossed pink and black.

 

Das wars für heute, ich hoffe, ich konnte euch ein wenig inspirieren! 

Ein schönes Wochenende!

That´s it for today, I hope I could inspire you a little bit!

Wish you a wonderful weekend!

Art Journal Page for Mixed Media Place Creative Gym - Exercise #11

Hallo zusammen, heute möchte ich euch meine neuesten Art Journal Seiten zeigen, die ich noch schnell für Creative Gym - Exercise #11 bei Mixed Media Place gemacht habe. Die Aufgabe, die die wunderbare Riikka gestellt hat, lautete, ein Projekt nach einem Art Recipe von Finnabair zu fertigen.

Hi all, today I want to show you my latest Art Journal Pages, I made at the last moment for Creative Gym - Exercise #11. The exercise, which hosted the wonderful Riikka, was, to use one of the Art Recipes from finnabair to get you going! 

Als ich das New Art Recipe  von finnabair gesehen habe, wollte ich gleich eine Journal Seite, inspiriert davon, machen.
Nun denn, hier ist meine Seite. Der Spruch, den ich bei Emily McDowell´s gefunden habe, lautet:
"Sei nett; jeder, den du triffst, kämpft einen harten Kampf."  Ich denke, daran sollte man sich immer wieder im täglichen Leben erinnern, sowohl privat als auch im Berufsleben.
 
When I saw the New Art Recipe  , I wanted to make an Art Journal page, inspired by this recipe.

Well, here is my Art Journal page. The sentiment I used, I found at Emily McDowell´s page:
"Be kind; everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle." I think, this is importend in every day life, privat and also in job.

Ich bin den einzelnen Schritten von der entzckenden Anna gefolgt und habe einige Fotos auf diesem Weg gemacht:
I followed all the steps from lovely Anna and made some pictures on my way: 
 

 For colouring I used two of my Magials from Lindy´s (Time Travel Teal and Shabby Turbine Teal).

 

 Some close ups:
 

Entschuldigt bitte die schlechte Fotoqualität, ich hatte leider kein Tageslicht mehr. Morgen mache ich noch mal neue!
Danke fürs Reinschauen!

Sorry for the bad photos, but there were no more daylight! I´ll try to make some better pictures tomorrow.
Thanks for dropping in here today!
