Oddball Art Stamps challenge reminder.

HI! I know this post is so so late and I just need to apologize for this.  Life has been hectic recently with job, course work and home things. But hopefully all is on the mend.  Oddball Art Stamp still has ongoing challenge on the blog so pop in and see whats happening there you can find the blog here.

For the reminder I did this card for my Mother for the Mother's Day. In Polish tradition it is always celebrated on the 26th of May so I will be posting her shortly. I had so much fun colouring and making this card. The sentiment can be loosely translated to : 'On Mother's day ... I wish you can just relax'.  I hope she will like it!

Easter mix media page.

Hello! I hope everyone had a great Easter break and is feeling as creative as I am! Oddball Arts is hosting another fabulous challenge on the blog this time it is a Spring Challenge so feel free to add your amazing spring creations to the competition. For the Easter occasion I created my very own mixed media page which I then used for cards. I love the idea of creating your own personal masterpiece and sharing all the love with close to the heart. Lizzy is also hosting a challenge on her Facebook page so hop there and say hello! You can take part too as there are great prizes to be won. Here is the link to Facebook group called Oddball Art Stamps by Lizzy Love . Here you can find a link to Lizzy's amazing Etsy shop to purchases her digi stamps and other great creations. 

Here is my creation: 

I started this page by colouring the digital image from Lizzy's collection. I used my Promarkers and my newest purchase and love A Wink of Stella clear pen. I wish the picture could give justice to the shimmer but unfortunately I am not as skilled photographer as I wish I was. Then I painted the background using my watercolour set and stamped the border using archival ink. Next step was making my own stencil and just by using a single punch hole in the acetate I managed to create this small spots using white acrylic paint. Next step was finding some papers and washi for banners and I am just in love with those pastel colours. After adhering to the page I added the basket and using my watercolours once more did some shading. The only thing left to d was to add the sentiment printed with my labelling machine and all done!  

I would love to add my page to following challenges:

Simon Says Stamps - Make your own background.

I am still quite new to the whole concept as only made 4 or 5 letters but I love it! So as it is another month our DT team on Crafts Galore Encore has a new challenge and for grabs are 6 images used in team creations to choose from the lovely Sherri Baldi. The theme is make a card (a made letter card) and you can enter your challenge here .

Crafts Galore Encore DT

Hi I have sime exciting news and new project to share with you. I have been so lucky to be chosen a member of a design team for Crafts Galore Encore Challenge Blog and from 1st of March I will be sharing my creations with fellow DT members!


My first project was  a card I made for my work colleague for her wedding we attended in February. I had hand drawn and painted the digi myself  trying to catch the likeliness of the couple. Used my cameo cuts from Silhouette Store and the gold toppers, flowers and gems I purchased in Hobby Craft.

Hope you lie it as the couple certainly loved it! 

Oddball Art DT call

So Lizzy has another DT call for you lovely people... you can apply until February 25th. Here is a link to the blog and info how to apply!!!

Handmade Midori/Fauxdori notebook.

Ho everyone! I hope you all have a nice Valentine day spend with OH or friend or family! Just wanted to share with you my recent love for notebook making. I am obsessed! As it goes there is also a new challenge on Facebook group for all the Oddballers and a little birdie told me there will be a new DT call coming soon so stay tuned!

Here are some photos of my recent project for Anything goes challenge, click here to enter the group!

I used this amazing digi stamp from Lizzy Love's Etsy store, you can find it here .  I printed her out on a heavy cardstock ensuring she was positioned in the right corner. Afterwards I scored the lines for the Midori size notebook.  I painted the image with my promarkers and sharpies and added highlights with white posca pen. 

Next step was to colour the background and I used my watercolours to do so. Before they dried out I used a baby wipe to bled the colours together and allowed to dry. Mixed black with some white and added some darker shading so the images could stand out a little.  Using colourful pens did some writing in the background and a uneven border. Do not like using a ruler to do this as I love this messy uneven look.

Used similar method for the back and the flap. Then I adhered 2 small magnets to close the notebook together and attached the bakers twine pom pom for the page marker before glueing scrapbook paper to the back . Added the lines to the background of the paper and cut the heavy cardstock pages to the back. Used a heavy duty stapler to bind it all together. At the end added red and black washi tape on the layer of double sided tape to keep the washi together and cover the staples.

I would like to enter the project to the following challenges:
