Strollin'

Hi there, I'm joining again a challenge at Words & Paintery , well I must say that I am not an Autumn or Winter girl, but I do love the Autumn colors. So therefore this challenge was perfect.

Well it take a looooonnnnngggg time before I finish all my Prince pages that I want, but it doesn't matter, because they are all created with love and therefore it will take some time, sorry if you get bored of his photo's, lol, 

I added some packing paper behind the photo and some orange netting from oranges behind the photo. A piece of fabric was sprayed with orange and brown ink spray. I added leaves around and created gold accents with mica powder. The metal flower and butterfly were first added with some gesso and afterwards sprayed with brown, red, yellow spray ink. The feathers were just sprayed with red, brown and orange ink and at the chipboard piece "beautiful" I added some gold mica powder as well. Finished with some stickers for the title , some wooden pieces and a golden bow. 

For the title I used the song "Strollin' " , thought this would be perfect with the photo;

"Close the shop, let's take a ride, strollin', strollin' 

Take a break from 9 to 5, we could have fun just strollin'

It's so great, so great to be alive, rockin' , rollin', oh yeah.............."

Thanks so much for taking a peek !

Creative Embellishment September Challenge

I'm on a roll creating lately, lol. I've got so many inspiration lately. Unfortunately my personal photo's far behind with scrappin' , I still got inspired by Prince's music and it feels like that just have to create with his photo's instead of my own, for some reason. So here's a wonderful challenge that's going on at Creative Embellishments ;

So here's the inspiration photo to use :

And here's what I did with it. I started with a white background and added some white fabric where I sprayed some blue and white mist on and some blue acrylic paint. Then I stamped with a brick stamp all over the page , and stamped some music notes and my new record stamp. On the chipboard pieces I first added a layer of gesso , then I inked it with blue ink and finally added some glitters and some bling. Added some flowers around and some dewdrops. Finshed my page with some washi tape and stickers for the title.

I used a photo of Prince and Mayte for this one and chose the song; Saviour

"How did I ever come so far without U baby ?
What was I thinkin', what was I tryin' 2 be ?
Never did U ever give me reason to doubt U baby
U are my destiny and this I truly see "

My page was inspired by the blue colors and gears.

Here are some close up's :

Thank you so much for looking, take care and bless you all xoxo

Words & Paintery Challenge

Hey you all, sharing a new Prince page with you all today and submit it for the current challege at Words & Paintery.

So here's my page. I started with a white background and added some watercolors and mists on it in purple, red and blue. Then I stamped lots of butterflies all over. On a star stencil I added red acrylic paint, added the photo on it and two bling circles. Finished with some flowers, gears and wooden squares. 

Well since I create lot's of Prince (& Mayte) pages, I was inspired with a song a again. This time it was P-control. It's worth it to read his lyrics if you don't know them. Some of them are autobiographic and some of them has some interesting messages in it. So if you like to see more of my Prince pages you can always check my "Prince" section on my blog. 

Thank you so much for taking a peek .

Blog Hop

Hi dear blogreaders,

You arrived from Maya's blog on here, so here's my page which was ofcourse inspired by my alltime hero Prince. I already have created many layouts all inspired by his music. For this bloghop I was inspired by the song : Sign o' the times.

                                                     Time, time
                                                      Hurricane Annie ripped the ceiling of a church
                                                      U turn on the telly and every other story
                                                      Is tellin' U somebody died.....................
                                                      Time, time........          
               

I used lots of sprays on it, love to work with them and it's always fun to mix them up and see what color it will turn out. I used orange, turqoise and pearl sprays on this one and added some water too. For the mask of the clock I used distress ink orange and turqoise. Finished my page with some chipboard, flowers, bling and stamps. Here are some close-ups:

We have some special prizes to win, one is donated by Avec les mains the other one by me :-)

So I hope I've got you inspired to create a project and use one of the songs of these great artists. 

Here's a list to see where you are now and what is the next blog to hop over too. I hope you will have as much fun as I did. Can't wait to see all your beautiful projects. And don't forget to leave some love on every blog. Have fun creating !!
