My 1st Scrapcard Experience

As I google for alternative things to do, I found something that needs really creativity and talent. Scrapcard is a kind of hobby that makes you meditate. Cards, colors, figures and lots of things to do.

You can even tell a story or create different characters on your cards..

AnneMarie & Merit and Nicole are the ones that I follow. They are really creative girls and do great job.

Here are examples from them and also my 1st scrapcard experience. I'm really excited and want to do more. More? Coming up soon:)

For my first scrapcard as I don't know how to start I just made an outline to see what it will look like. Then I put my stickers on the card and here it is:) My card with "Teatime" theme.

Party Themes

I love parties....And different custom made themes. I have done one for my dear daughter for her first birthday. The theme of the party was of course the bird. You know I love them so much... so I chose it. For details...

For those who are looking for a party theme or something different, take a look at the photos above. Frog Prince Paperie. Every dream comes true with them.

Cake Toppers

Last year  for one of my friend I have designed my first cake topper. For the wedding proposal he chose the day of her girl friends birthday.

I have done a bride and a bride groom. They loved it so much. On the cake its written  "Will you marry me?".

Here it is...

My first cake topper

 And also I'm sharing some cake topper examples made of wood. Mine was made of sugar paste..

I love knitting & Rowan

Manual labor fashion never ends. We can't give them away and keep them at chests to protest the memories. Maybe a mother made it or a grandma doesn't matter who did it. It tells us many stories from the past and make us remember the old days with a little smile on our face.
Knitting is one of the most loved crafts. I still keep my childhood cardigans knitted by mom, grandma or aunt. If you take good care of them they keep memories for years. Just they keep us warm in the old days they also form the picture of the past.

Rowan is a brand I like so much. They have great designs and products in latest knitting projects. You can't even believe the species of yarns they have.  Not only for men, women and babies they also have great projects for home.  I would like share some pictures I took from their web site. But for more visit Rowan.
