Rustic - 7 Dots Studio


Hi there and great start to the new week! Above you can see my take on the new challenge theme on 7 Dots Studio's blog (link). The theme this time is "Moments in time". You can see team's take on the theme on the blog post I linked there and sneaks in the circle underneath. Taking part to the challenge is easy as always - create something inspired by the theme, use at least one 7 Dots Studio product in your project and then link your creation to the challenge. Oh, and don't forget to include the inspirational circle in your post!


When I read the challenge theme I knew I wanted to make something vintage inspired even though “moments in time” are happening constantly. It's almost like the phrase "Panta rhei" - constant, never ending stream of moments in time. Quite a fascinating theme, actually, isn't it?

I chose to go with this photo taken near our summer house from an old stable window. I love how it’s partly in pieces and really grungy looking. What stories it holds! I love when objects have a personality and stories to tell. Tell about those moments in time.

To enhance the vintage theme I went with neutral color palette, with aged tones and tea stains. I made the background using tea, watercolor and ink. There's some stenciling and some stamping in there, trying to create that worn, weathered look.

How would you treat the theme? Why don't you make a project and join the challenge! Thank you for stopping by today!
