Adore - Kerstin Filou - Mood Board Inspiration

 

 Welcome creative friends! 

Now it's my turn to feature a layout using the beautiful Dusty Attic Moodboard for January.

 Palm trees, sun, beach and sea and these sunset colors on the January Moodboard  make you dream of vacation.

But here it's winter now and we are happy when some snow falls from the sky and the frost enchants nature with hoar frost snow crystals. From the winter walk you get red noses, because outside it's frosty cold and you are grateful for every warming ray of sunshine.

We also like to go into the garden now and feed our winter birds. 

That was my inspiration and thoughts behind  this wintry mixed media layout.

 

Suitable to the winter temperatures I used mainly the cool blue shades and only some little shades of warm tones for the birds. 

I love to create with Maja Design papers, here some sheets from the collection 'Holidays in the Alp'.

Little birdies were painted with some diluted acrylic colours

 

This little bird house is so amazing, you can glue the window and the roof trim  for an additional 3d effect, I added some small icicles too

 The trees fits perfectly to this photo, I snowed them in, just like my last project,

Evening by the Sea - Kerstin Filou - Mood Board inspiration

Hello creative friends!

A new moodboard which reminds me on beautiful sunset's by the sea.

'Evening by the Sea' 

I use two photo's from the Baltic sea, where I love to spend our holidays.

There are no palm trees but a beautiful sandy beach where you can walk with your dog for hours.

This is true recreation and pure relaxation for us.

Unfortunately we can't go there every year and so I like to remember this time while doing handicrafts. This is one of the reasons why I love scrapbooking so much.

The use of Dusty Attic chipboards make the projects more vivid and interesting.

You can find a lot of natural style elements under Beach, Fishing, Nautical and Tropical.
