Step-by-Step Instructions on How to Create an Ombré Bowl with StazOn

Hi everyone and happy Thursday :)

Long time, no see! But I am actually enjoying three weeks off work *hooray*
And -hopefully- this means some extra time to get crafty! *woohoo* Can't wait to get my fingers inky and get some blog posts written ;-)

Today, I am sharing something unusual - well at least it is not usual for me *lol*
The AIR's (AIR = Artist In Redsidence) from Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko have been challenged to create an upcycle project!

I usually am a card maker... a clean and simple card maker... well and this challenge really *was* a personal challenge for me :-)

But in the end I did not only one project, but two different ones and I had a lot of fun with these :-)

I've made my very own ombre bowl by just using a boring, plain white bowl plus StazOn, GlazOn and Ink Blusher tools. And *tadah*.... you have a totally new and lovely decoration piece!

You can find the tutorial HERE on the Imagine Crafts Blog!

Please scroll down to find my tutorial, because this is a double post and you will also find a cool upcycle project idea + instructions from Isha Gupta in the same post... one more reason to hop over! :) 

But I wanted to go a little further and also used some baby food jars to create some "lanterns" to use with the bowl.

These were not only fun but also super easy to create!!!

If you want to know how I did it, please visit the Imagine Crafts Blog and you will find detailed step-by-step instructions with lots of pictures!

Please refer to the grey box below this post for a complete list of supplies :)

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope to see you here on my blog again, soon :)

something different....

Hi everyone and happy Saturday :-)
I hope you are having a wonderful, sunny weekend!
 Today I want to show you something 'different' than my usual cards: the first page in my brand new 'Art Journal' :D I am currently taking a class at '2Frollein' and I really have soooo much fun exploring all the messy Mixed Media techniques :-)))
So here is my first spread - hope you like it!  

Hallo zusammen und Euch allen einen wunderschönen Samstag :-)

Ich hoffe Ihr habt ein wunderbares und sonniges Wochenende!

Heute möchte ich Euch mal was anderes zeigen, als immer nur Karten: Nämlich die allererste Seite in meinem brandneuen "Art Journal" :D Ich nehme gerade an einem Kurs der "2Frollein" teil und es macht mir echt riesigen Spaß die ganzen "dreckigen" Mixed Media Techniken auszuprobieren und kennen zu lernen :-)))

Hier kommt also meine erste Doppelseite - ich hoffe sie gefällt Euch!
