Be who you want to be - 7 Dots Studio Nov-Dec challenge

Hello again!
Here I am to share my last page as a 7 Dots Studio DT member (sigh).
It was made for the new challenge, whose theme is "VINTAGE".

Although I don't do them very often, I love doing vintage projects. They emit the greatness of a lost, old world, full of grandeur and grace.  They make me feel nostalgic and at the same time they prompt me to move forward and look to the future.  The message I want to get across with this page is that we must be who we want to be, starting with questioning everything in our lives.  We won't forget our stories, we'll have to record them, but let's not linger in the past.  Lost and Found Collection at its full glory, again.










This is the amazing inspirational circle






I guess that's everything!  I will be back soon. Thank you very much for your warm comments on my previous post, I do appreciate them.  As for my scrapbooking ventures, actually there is none ahead, for the moment (only a couple of guest dt spots).  I would never quit a DT just to hop onto the next one. 

Anyway... see you soon!

Christmas blessings

Good morning everyone!

Today I would like to share with you one of my two last pages as a 7 Dots Studio DT member. There is only one more, that you will see in a couple of days!  I decided to step down from the DT and I already feel nostalgic. As I'm typing these lines I still don't believe it. It was not easy at all to make such decision, but given the circumstances it was a right one.

I need to thank Tusia Lech for believing in my scrapping skills 2,5 years ago. I will be forever thankful for the trust, love and kindness she has showed me all this time.  7 Dots Studio collections have been a huge inspiration and have accompanied me throughout my scrapbooking journey. They were the reason why I won challenges and my pages got known by people.  Therefore I would like to express my love and gratitude to this girl and I would like to meet her one day in person! Tusia Lech, thank you!

So in my last page for the 7 Dots Studio blog, I wanted to talk about BLESSINGS and GRATITUDE.
Christmas for me is a time to reflect on all the blessings God gave the world, when He sent His only Son to save the world. A time to be grateful for everything He has granted us.  I chose a Pinterest photo that depicts abundance, at least this is what I see in it.  So my layout had to be full and rich in texture, depth and colour. And this is what I have tried to do, I hope you can see these elements in my layout.  I used the awesome Yuletide Collection - what else could fit more?  The colour combo is the colours I usually like for Christmas decorations - I don't go traditional, this deep purple, gold and rich red convey exactly my feelings during the Christmas season.







I also got inspired by the Scrap Around the World November moodboard, that is all about Christmas, the most wonderful time of the year. I kept its grey/silver colour for my background, although like I already said, I opted for richer and deeper colours.




I hope you like my page! One more is coming in soon! 
Thank you for visiting my blog!

Soul Search

Καλημέρα και Καλό μήνα!

Φθινόπωρο επιτέλους... ααααχχχχχ!!!
Φύλλα που πέφτουν (όχι εδώ, σε άλλες περιοχές), δυνατοί αέρηδες.... ψύχρα, συννεφα, γκρίζος ουρανός.... ΤΕΛΕΙΑ!

Οπότε δεν γίνεται παρά η πρόκληση Νοεμβρίου του ScrapsNPieces να έχει φθινοπωρινό θέμα!


"Autumn Colours" λοιπον...
(δεν είναι απαραίτητο να ακολουθήσετε επακριβώς τα χρώματα, οκ; απλά θέλουμε έργο με φθινοπωρινό θέμα)




Όπως έχω πει ήδη, η 7 Dots Studio Domestic Goddess είναι η καταλληλότερη συλλογή για φθινοπωρινά projects! Αυτή και χρησιμοποίησα!  Επίσης έβαλα και αυτές τις


Εικόνα του Soulmates - Clear Stamps


Να και το πανέμορφο moodboard της Βάλιας Κατζάκη για το ScrapsNPieces 
από το οποίο εμπνεύστηκα (κάπου έχω κρυμμένο ένα φύλλο maple - όποια το βρει, κερδίζει, επίσης βασίστηκα στη μεσαία δεξιά φωτό με το μπουκέτο για το cluster μου)



Tα χρώματα τα πήρα από το χρωματικό συνδυασμό του Words & Paintery


Αυτά τα ολίγα!  Λοιπόν έχετε προθεσμία να μας δείξετε τα φθινοπωρινά εργα σας έως τις 26 Νοεμβρίου!

Φιλιά πολλά!
