The journey starts with a single step - 7 Dots Studio / GDT Scrap Around The World


Hi there and happy start to the new week! I hope you had a wonderful weekend! 7 Dots Studio had a wonderful opportunity to play with the current Scrap Around The World challenge and the reveal of those pages went live yesterday. Here's the link to the current challenge (link) and underneath you can find the beautiful mood board by Pamela Ellis.


Even though the mood board is full of color, I chose to go with a neutral background to make my colors brighter. I was inspired mostly with the quote, the travel theme and the stunning turquoise/blue colors of the photo in the right upper corner. I also used an ombre style colors inspired by the sunrise photo and flowers inspired by the blooms in the board. I hardly ever use opposite colors in my projects but this board somehow needed it so I combined blue an orange in the same page.

The photo in the layout is taken in Paris, but I thought it would go nicely with the travel and achieving goals kind of quote. Like there's the gate, the castle in there and you just need to take the journey step by step to reach it. 

Thank you for your visit today! Hope you'll join the wonderful challenge!

Family - 7 Dots Studio


Hello there! Even though I stepped down as a designer to Scrap Around The World I still got to play with the challenge and have something in the blog as 7 Dots Studio team had a guest post there. Here's a link to the post showing all the creations together in Scrap Around The World blog!


Here's my page inspired by the beautiful mood board Karita has made. I was inspired by the color scheme and the romantic feel the board has. I also included a frame to my layout (from the bottom right image), crackled butterfly (inspired by the weathered paint in top right image) and a doily (inspired by the lace in top left image). 

I started the page by adding a piece of vellum to the background and then added some gesso, mists and stamping on top. I really had fun treating the resin frame with different paints and mists trying to mimic the patina look the ones in the mood board had. The topic of the page are my two daughters or rather my family. I added the journaling to the page after I had taken the photo. 


Talking about design teams, have you noticed something new on my side bar? I've joined the ScrapFX team and shall be sharing my first creations with their product in the end of this month! So exciting! 

Thank you for visiting today! Wishing you a lovely day!

Winter - Scrap Around The World


Hello hello! As I said in last post, new month means a new challenge! We have a lovely fresh, wintery new mood board at Scrap Around The World designed by our team member Anna Komenda from Poland. And talking about team members, we also got a new teamie from Norway, Marianne Johansson!

Normally SATW only acceps layouts, canvases and art journal spreads as the projects but as this is the holiday month we want to give people more time to festivities and still a chance to participate. So this month only we also accept tags and ATCs! So the minimum size of the project is 2½x3½"! Think about that! Otherwise the normal rules about the inspiration, sharing and linking stay the same. Please visit this link to see the rules.


Here's my take on the challenge! I love, love loved the fresh colors of the moodboard. I also used snow flakes and chevron inspired by it. The topic of the page is my love for winter and snow.

This page is my last one for Scrap Around The World as a part of the DT so it feels a bit sad. But I'm so looking forward to new adventures and also their new mood boards! Who knows if I can then participate to the challenges or use them as inspiration for DT work!

Carpe Diem - Scrap Around The World


Hello! It's time for the mid month reveal at Scrap Around The World! Here's the link to take you to that original post (link) and here's another one for the first reveal (link). That way you can see all the beautiful creations from the SATW team! 

The creator of this month's vintage inspired mood board is Zuzia Bodakowska from Poland. It's got lovely textures and a feel of the days passed. Please also check the rules before linking up your project to the challenge. You can see them for example here (link)


Here's my take on the mood board. I was inspired by the colors and the atmosphere the mood board has. Inspired by the handwriting in the board, I used one of my text dies to make that title and journaled using song lyrics that say how wonderful life is. The picture of the layout is of a park in Paris.

I also used doilies, flowers, note patterned paper and wood grain inspired by the board. And I guess I was also inspired by the scrapping company I had had previous weekend as the layout has a Veera vibe to it!

Let me say thank you for visiting today, but please still scroll all the way down as you can see the fabulous prizes we have this month there! Inspiring start to the new week!

Dancing 24/7 - Scrap Around The World

Good evening! 16th of the month marks the mid month reveal in Scrap Around The World and I'm sharing my piece in this post. This month the mood board is made by Rachael Funnell. The board is youthful, glamorous and there's a touch of softness. Here's the link to the first reveal post in Scrap Around The World


You can use the moodboard in any way you like. You only need to be inspired by one of the images but can use multiple if you choose so. Scarp Around The World isn't a color challenge, so you don't have to use the colors of the mood board if you don't want to. Please remember to write to your post how you were inspired. Please also remember that in order to be eligible for our random prize each 
month you do need to share your project on our Facebook Wall. 


Here's my page created using the mood board. I was inspired by the colors, the butterfly, the gems and the quote. The topic of the page is my younger daughter, who's a really carefree spirit. She wants to dance all day and nothing better than having a full skirt on then!


I used Finnabair Art Mediums for the background and mixed in some Wow! Embossing Powders, too as well as inks and even doodling. There's layer upon layer in the background.
