A Quick Post!

My L.O. for   Get Creative.   The challenge was to make a blue and white page  and we had to add the word "NO"....as we have a national holiday,in Greece, on the 28th of October.
This is my quick take on the challenge...I must rush off now, and no it is not to tea!
Chat later.

So was I sewing or scrapping?

Hi there Ladies.
I have just come home from the opening of our friends store Sfragidomania.It was lovely to see all my Greek scrapbooking friends, I had not seen them since before summer.

Today I want to share with you a L.O. that I made for Elins's challenge. we were to use only one paper and one title. I thought of this challenge whilst putting up hems of about 8 pair of trousers.......I much rather could have been scrapping,you understand?
I used the pieces of denim that I cut off of the trousers to make  flowers you can watch the video here Zeffyk on USTREAM

I used a Hambly die cut and some Hambly transparency ( I won them at the Lotto at our last crop!)

I sewed around the 2 sides of my paper with my sewing machine.

I was doing this L.O. on USTREAM and I had pulled out some Basic Grey alphas that would have worked perfectly, But then I realised they were paper,and we were not to use any other paper! So I decided to write my title,and then just highlight it with some Glossy Accents.I also had an embossed matal strip that I used,as well as a little scissors charm. Once I did my journaling I decided to stamp around the page, I wanted the stamping to look like embroidery.

Good-Night

Birthday wishes in a Tin!

Hi there .
Today is my darling Panos' Birthday!
When he unwrapped his gift he got excited,almost like we do when we see scrapping stuff, anyway he thought I had bought him a new tin of  Macanudo Cigars.
I used a thin metal for the cover,and for some of the tags. I inked up all the metal with alcohol inks.

The back page was A purple  cardstock, that I had embossed at one of the crops with a friends Cuttlebug embossing folder. Anyway  I ditressed inked it,  and then I glittered and modged it all up, to give it a metalic feel.

Before I link up the video I also want to tell you that I will be streming  Here on
 Monday the 18th of October at 17H00  Don't forget that I will be drawing the winner and runner up of my Celebration Blog Candy on the show.
And lastly her is the video of Wishes in a Tin
Ok Folks thats all for today,off to ice the Birthday Cake!
Love Zeffy.

This L.O.will also be entered in another challenge Crafty Croppers gr that needed to have autumn leaves on it...I made the leaves...using dabbers and cracle medium.

Then lastly the third challenge was #3Howl at the Moon....here we had to use something unusual...I used a butterfly that I embroided instead of a stamp inside a frame that I painted and perfect pearled.This will have to be a card for a special person!.....stamping is a lot faster!
