July STROMSVIGT "12 in '14"-challenge

hey there!

Back with this month's prompt "geometric".

Here's what I came up with:

A winter-themed layout in June? Why not!? (((;

I had these in my to-use-pics for a really long time... 'til now! (;

Using the "Special Delivery" set (available here in the STROMSVIGT etsy shop.) once again for the journaling lines & the "Fragile".

The "+"es are from the "The good stuff" stampset. (available here in the STROMSVIGT etsy shop.)

I splattered some Mr. Huey's in brown and white (which is empty now... boo!) but covered all those splatters with the pictures...(((;

The Nea-alpha (available here in the STROMSVIGT etsy shop.), used to stamp "winter" unfortunately isn't available.

I added some tiny handdrawn '+'es 

Some more detail-shots:

"12 in '14"-challenge no. 3 - OMBRÉ

Next month  -  next challenge!

This month Nina challenged us to create a layout under the prompt: OMBRÉ!

And here is my take on it:

I dared to play with paint again - and this time: I JUST LOVE IT!

Because it was not THAT messy? yes! (;

I had intended to go from black in the top right corner to white in the

bottom left corner, but after finishing the background 

I thought that looked lame... so i turned it 180 degrees and

VOILÀ - it was muuuuch better.

Then I had the idea of using labels in different colors and shapes

and so I played with them until they were where they are now.

The second to last step was getting out all of my Stromsvigt stamps, finding

all kinds of words I liked for this layout and stamping them on 

or next to the labels.

Finally I added the title. I knew it had to be big...and small... 

so I got out these vintage puffy thickers and wrote out my title.

Here you can see that they are polka-dotted (;

 And to balance it out I added the subtitle with these tiny alpha stickers

by October Afternoon in the top right corner.

What do you think about it?
Now it's your turn. 

Hop over to Nina's blog to see the other girls' take on this challenge

AND participate to have a chance to win! (;

SEE YA!
