Guest Designer - Heather Jacob Australia

Witajcie! Dziś mamy zaszczyt gościć u nas jedną z moich ulubionych artystek - nie tylko jest niezwykle utalentowaną osobą, której prace przyprawiają o szybsze bicie serca, ale to jedna z najbardziej ciepłych i serdecznych osób jakich znam. Z tym większa przyjemnością zapraszam do bliższego poznania Heather i jej cudownej pracy z papierów Frosted Life. Heather będziemy gościć jeszcze raz w kwietniu:)

Hi! Today I am honoured to introduce you one of my favourite artist - she is not only amazingly talented woman - her works make everyone's heart bit faster, but she is also one of the kindest and warmest persons I know. It is my great pleasure to invite you to read her short story and look at this stunning page she created with Frosted Life papers. Heather will be our guest in April too:)

Hi there, my name is HEATHER JACOB.

Firstly I am so honoured to be here as a guest designer .Thanks so much Ayeeda for inviting me .. I think you have created such amazing papers with a unique feel. I am sure you will go from strength to strength .. .. mwah xo

Now a little about me: I feel blessed that my husband/soulmate Baden is incredibly supportive and interested in my art/hobby and my beautiful family feature in my works.

To me this craft is the perfect combination of art, photography, beautiful paper, and glorious words. I especially love to choose some elements, cast a spell and see what happens, to create a dream and follow it through. Subtle shadows, light and color are all ingredients for casting the spell. I am in harmony with my garden and its inhabitants, connecting with the beauty that surrounds me. For me it is all-consuming, inspiring and a natural expression of my inner self, which I love to weave into my works.

I am inspired by colour and texture … I love to play with stitching, chipboard, journaling, muslin, fabrics, metal elements, inking, masking and texture paste. Getting messy with paint, experimenting and playing with paper ignites my creativity and connects me with my inner child.

Off the page projects and altered art are a fave of mine. I see my style as “CLASSIC” with attention to detail…I tend to lean toward monochromatic themes with a little shabby chic/grunge thrown in..

Memories are forever, Warm hugz from Heather x
