Terhi Koskinen | Memories

Hello 13arts fans!

It's Terhi here sharing a memory from last October, the first annual Mixed Media pARTy. Why annual? Well, it's coming AGAIN! Yes, dust your apron and pack your packs - we're going to Poland! It's happening 20th-22th May 2016, please read all the delicious details from here:

As said, I'm sharing a memory. In the picture is me and 13arts Boss, Mom, Owner, Master Designer and the most wonderful person on earth, lovely Aida. The picture was taken on Sunday, the last day of our event and even though we were so tired and ready to go home, it felt bad to leave all behind. The weekend was a success. It was full of art and friends and food and great views from Friday to Sunday and I felt like I was where I supposed to be. For once!
So hugging Aida (and the huge real tree growing through the house (!)) was a cute little moment and it describes so well what's going on. Happy and sad at the same time.


I'm so glad we are getting together again. 
My big wish to get house full of people, house full of all of you! For someone the journey can seem tough, but I promise, it's worth it!


Thank you for stopping by!

Terhi xx

Key of my heart!


Hello everyone! Alberto's here!!

 How is going? hope everything is going fine...as you probably has noticed we're soon on S. Valentine's day and we have to make something special for this occasion! 
are you ready?

i think mixed media is the perfect technique for alter an object and give it as a present so this year i thought that i had to alter a little wooden heart and make it in "steampunk/mixedmedia" style.

Here it is 


I used a bicycle piece that looks like a gear and a broken key that actually is my home's key.
Some metal embellishments such the crown, the bird and the leaves and here it is!

here is the list of product used:



 ...another little detail of the heart:


What you think about? hope you will like my creation and don't forget to pop over my blog to have more inspirations!


Thank you for looking,

Tatiana Yemelyanenko and Tanita Shmigun- our talented Guests!


Witajcie!
Dzisiaj chcielibyśmy Wam pokazać dwa świetne projekty od naszych utalentowanych Gościnnych Projektantek: Tatiany Yemelyanenko i Tanity Shmigun. Tatiana zrobiła piękny layout ze świątecznym zdjęciem a Tanita jest już w walentynkowym nastroju :) 

Hello! 
Today we'd like to show you two great projects by our talented Guest Designers: Tatiana Yemelyanenko and Tanita Shmigun. Let's see them! Tatiana made a beautiful layout with Christmas picture and Tanita is already in Valentine's mood :)

Tatiana Yemelyanenko




Hello! Hope you all have wonderful holiday season and have a lot of beautiful pictures. And now when Cristmas is behind it's time to scrap them. 


I сhose last year family photo and used traditional color scheme. I love fussy-cutting so I cut berries design from the 'Christmas tags' sheet and divided it on three pieces. 



After I'd layered all embellishments I added medium, mists and 3D Ayeeda Powders. I finished my LO with splashes of mists and acrylic ink.


I used:

  'Berry' and 'Christmas tags' paper from Winter tales collection,

Tanita Shmigun




Hi everyone! 
How is your mood? Did you have great Christmas and New Year's holidays? I hope you did :)
Now it's perfect time to think about love 'cause St. Valentine's day is coming soon :) 
"Secret letters" is just awesome 13 arts' collection for romantic, tender projects, full of love, warmth and smiles... Do you feel those little butterflies in your stomach?))))
And now I'd like to present you my little, but veeery sweet girlish card.

 
I created it for my friend's birthday, no matter, how old are you, you're always a nice cute girl inside :) And pink color symbolizes all my love to my girl, my tender attitude to her.
Hope you enjoyed it! Have a nice day and don't forget about inspiration living inside of you!

Celebrate with Jelissa

Hello friends!

Hope your 2016 has been great so far. Mine is just filled to the brim with the kids and their activities and catching some me-time is a miracle! And I was so glad to find time to make a card for a special someone.



I've used paper from Aida's Secret Letters collection and based my mono-chrome palette entirely on the gorgeous mauve and pinks.

Some close-ups:



Bits of the background here. I first used the lovely new doily stencil (love it!!) and painted over with Dirty Pink in the chalk and pastel mists, followed by splatters of pastel Berry mist and black Splash! ink. For my title, I painted the words with white Splash! ink.



When all that is dried, I went over with the "Always the Music" stencil. This is another favourite of mine because of the details in the notes and script and I love to use this to add more texture to my background. Lastly is a script stamp with some embossing powder for a darker color tone to accent the whole card.


I have a doily die cut from white cardstock and gave it a slightly different treatment. First I splattered Berry mist over it without gesso and let the color sink in. It leaves a intense but even splash of color and I applied gesso over. Finally it's Berry mist again but the effects are greatly different. The spots of mist dries with a darker edge around a much lighter pool of the mist. With this, I was able to make my doily look more interesting with a dyed and dried look. The chipboard was treated as usual with painting Dirty Pink chalk mist randomly.

And this is all I have for today. Have a great weekend ahead!
