Happy Hello Berry71Bleu Fans!

 

Today it's my turn to share my take on this month's fun filled "FOREST" challenge hosted by

  Tusia Lech.

I used the dark paper from 7 Dots Studio - Nature Walk - Perfect for this month's challenge!

The photo was recently taken by me at the local state park and you can see the sun peeking through the trees.....I added the sticker from 7 Dots Studio, Destination Unknown - "Sunny Skies"  among the various embellies!

I wanted to use dark background paper to add depth behind the photo - (as if walking deep into the woods) -  I then wanted to add accents of the colors in the photo - (blues/greens) - I used a variety of brands of mists, paints and inks to this mixed media layout....I was grabbing "similar" colors as in the photo.

 

   Below is the beautiful "Forest" themed mood board Tusia created:

                 Check out the wonderful prizes for the September challenge!!!!

Little story by Elena Lishchenko

Hey everyone! Here am I, Elena  with my new project. Today I would like to share my new layout about my grandmother.

This month our challenge is Forest and Tusia has made a gorgeous moodboard for us:

So I created the layout about our forest walk. For my layout I used amazing 7Dot Studio Paper and tags from Soulmates collection. I love this collection, it's so good for mixed-media projects!

Wandering In The Forest Tag by Kay

For this month's challenge I decided to do a tag--a small project but one I haven't done in a long time.  When I saw this month's mood board--the first thought that came to my mind is one of my favorite TV shows 'The Walking Dead".  The majority of that show takes place in a forest setting.  The forest is portrayed in all sorts of way on this show.  It's a place of both peace & fear.  It's basically become the primary makeshift home for all of the characters on the show as they wander an apocalypse ridden land.

I found a great photo of them online that shows a couple of the primary characters walking aimlessly through the forest--so I took that photo plus this challenge to make an homage to one of my favorite shows.

Here's the fabulous inspiration board for this month's challenge.

I kept the overall color scheme of the tag in the earth tone family.  I've used embellishments from the 'Nature Walk' collection by 7 Dots Studio to further dress up my tag.

I have a bag of dried moss in my stash that added the perfect touch to this tag--I tucked a few strands of this moss behind my burlap flower & pine cone.

Thanks for stopping by.  Now onto this month's prizes...

Magical Forest in a shadow box by TandiArt

                                                 Hello Arty Souls!

Sylwia here with my magical project for September:) As I loved the challenge this month, which is a beautiful forest mood board designed by our very creative Tusia:), therefore I created a magical forest in a shadow box.

For the background, I used new collection of papers by 7 Dots Studio- Lost and Found.

Then I made whimsical houses out of clay. I also added some natural moss and sticks:)

Drop Every Fear Layout - Melenia Agapides - Guest Designer

Hello Everyone

We have a super Guest Designer today...Melenia Agapides...Melenia was our winner from 2 months back. A very warm welcome to Melenia and I am thrilled that she could join us today! 

Here's a little bit about Melenia.

"My name is Melenia Agapides! I live in an island of Greece and am mother of 2 kids, as well as an Airport Authority Officer at our local airport. I started scrapbooking in 2009, but I got more involved in 2011. I'm a layout designer and I love working with masks, inks, pastes, mists and threads. I think my style is still evolving, so I can't put a name on it, but my pages contain clusters with different kind of embellies, which I "glue together" with paints, mists and inks.Thank you for having my as a Guest Designer, Berry71Bleu!"

Melenia created this stunning and fabulous page.

The layers and details are just wonderful! ;-)

Here's a closer look.

Thanks so much Melenia for creating this beauty! ;-)
