Creative JumpStart 2013 - Day 5 (n°6)

The 6th JumpStart is the 2nd one from Nathalie Kalbach.

It is a really cool technique, but I think that you really need stamps with big surfaces. I don't have one so I did the technique with a stamp I have, that is also JumpStart for me, working with what you have.

So this is the result, I stamped twice, the first time it was to dry and the second time to wet to really show of the pattern.

Creative JumpStart 2013 - Day 4 (n°5)

Yesterday I only had limited time to craft, and even didn't have time to post it here on my blog. So today you will have two posts.

This first one is the JumpStart from Sharon Laakonen. I did a tag pocket with the glassbeadgel technique and another tag to put in it and to put a bit of journaling on.

  The blue on the glass beads is distress ink the background is also distress and the green on the tag is dylussions ink spray.

Creative JumpStart 2013 - Day 3 (n° 3 & 4)

Woohoo today is a double Jump day @ Creative JumpStart, Nathalie is really spoiling us ... and I love every second of it.

As Jump n° 4 is a giveway so no art for this one.

Jump n° 3 is brought by Heidi Swapp. I loved playing around with the product and the technique. I made one stencil myself and the other one is a regular one.

To be honest the picture didn't come out really good, it makes it seem a lot darker than it is.

Creative JumpStart 2013 - Day 2

After completing Day 1, I directly jumped to play with the JumpStart Day 2.

Today it was Julie Fei Fan Balzer who showed us 3 ways to play with stencils.

This is my result ...

Creative JumpStart 2013 - Day 1

Yesterday I didn't find the time to start the Creative JumpStart Summit 2013 and that is not the best way to start a new JumpStart. Today I had to make up for the time and start right ahead.

It was Nathalie Kalbach herself that started this Jumpstart Series, with a cool idea to combine adhesives and embossing powder. This is my version.

12 Tags of 2013 - January

First and foremost I want to wish all of you a very happy 2013 with lots of love and fantastic moments and a good health.

My creative year started already, no time like the present isn't it.

As I love the 12 tags of ... series by Tim Holtz I decided to do them this year. Here is my version of January.

 

Back

I almost can't believe I didn't post for like half a year. I didn't drop from the earth however. I had a rough year. But it is almost over, so I'm starting with a fresh start. And crafting is most certainly a big part of it for 2013. I crafted today for the first time in months and I loved every minute of it. All my creativity came back, a lot of new idea's but I guess that will be for next year. So excited!
