Far and near LO

This lo is about my family- devided by the ocean for 2 parts as my only sister and her family live in USA and all the rest- here in Israel

So once a year we meet and this photo is the result of one of this meetings.

Tamar- my dear niece and one of my own twin daughters Nitzan in Jerusalem park smiling and then separating for a year and even more

So this one is what I call " pure Prima" ( but this beaded flower and a bug on the corner) and it fits the mood of this summery lo with 2 beauties on it

Vintage altered tea box

This box made Top 3 at Die cuts r us challenge- thanks!!

This box made Top 3 at Stamp insanity challenge- thanks!!

Today I decided to alter an old wood tea box as a part of my Passover present for my mom (Dad gets the lo with my sister) and both of them will get something from the new Ikea shop that was opened just near us..

So I was in my almoust usual vintage mood and this is a real 19 century (not sure- but seams like it ) box that my mom can use for her jewelry too.

I used some handmade paper that I colored with a pearl paint, some flocked Prima paper, lots of distressing and inking, 2 die cut circles, stamping with Unity stamp and heat embossing this " love out loud " quote and then just added lots of flowers, buttons, lace, ribbon, blings etc to give it this vintage look

And it was done for some web challenges too- also they are mostly springy, but I digged some that are great for this box

Real life lo

Sometimes I really am glad to do " without people" pages- just to scrap the beauty of the nature.So when I saw this " non people" lo on Pamela's world I decided that I need to do this lo and to use all these spring colors for other web challenges as well as all my " bits and scraps" and some of non scrappy items too- like my own made polymer clay stones, some wood, some old vellum music paper I got from a scrappy friend.
So here it is- very old Daisy D's paper , stamped ticket, bingo card, homemade tree with buttons, some not so old Bg paper,tearing, inking, painting a chipboard ...
This is a real life of a nature- water..
And now for the challenges:
Spring colors for ALL sorts, Charisma, Magical crafts
Not a card for Pals paper arts
Not a card for Creative inspirations
Transparency ( over my photo) for Frosted designs
Old items- mostly the paper- Daisy D's is out of the market for more then a year- for Practical scrappers

Wild nature lo

The problem with me is that I do several albums all together: my son's wedding album (so I gave it to him and my DDL- so what? I still have hundreds of pictures to scrap), my DH and DS Amir S. America long trip, my twins 2 years out of Israel, my DP old photos, my own old photos too and in between some nature, family meetings,my sis and her family , my kids young years etc. So I decided to try these multi photos sketches and to fix minimum of 3 photos in each one

This one a kind of grid that went well with these " wild" men photos of not so wild nature

And as always this masculine pages are hard for me- no flowers, swirls, blings and all these cute things I love?

Here I used mostly techniques- acrylic paint matting, misting the chipboard tree,punching my own journaling note, using some old fabric I got from some furniture workshop, some kitchen twine and 2 pp- Prima and Sassafras one.

And as for other challenges- lots of green one are on the web now..
