Sweet macaroon memories

A while ago I have been invited to become an exclusive Prima marketing and Finnabair brand designer for 7 kids crafting supply store and challenge blog. I was thinking about my first project with the gorgeous products I love sooo much. And as soon as I saw Prima's march moodboard I knew right away I just have to join both together and create something special, something unique. Prima's march moodboard is really soft, spring themed, with shades of rose gold, blush pink, mint, light blue and gray. It features gorgeous Prima flowers, delicious Macarons and most famous macaron pastry Laduree. This is this month's Prima moodboard:


One of my first thoughts was to make something with macarons that I just adore so much! Then I got the idea to make a mini macaron albums, with only two pages and holding one picture inside. I made macarons from a cardboard, foam, some fabric and mixed media art mediums. I made three macarons, one to hold a picture of each of my little sunshines. :) I love looking at pictures, where macarons of different colors are lined-up in a gorgeous box, so I made the box also.

I've used Prima color bloom sprays and artisan powders to color my macarons and I've used Prima Rose Quartz paper collection allong with flowers from the same collection. I've also made a video that you can watch at the end of this post and you can find all the product used in the description box of the video.

I have to warn you... :D this is a picture heavy post so prepare yourselves :D Hope you'll like it. I'll be really happy to hear your thoughts and comments! They mean a world to me! <3

Have a great day!

Love blossoms


Hi my friends. This week has been pretty bussy for me. :) And today I am back with some fresh inspiration for gorgeous Wild Orchid Crafts flowers. We've celebrated first sping day and very soon it will be a wedding season again. I love making wedding projects and today I have for you another one from my series of floating cups. This time it is a wedding floating cup filled with blossoms and underneath there is a small box to put a surprise in it. Hope you'll like it. :)

I used several Wild Orchid Crafts gorgeous flowers for my project. You can get yours and much more at the Wild Orchid Crafts webshop. Here are the links to the ones I used today:


Thank you so much for visiting me again today and have a great rest of the day! :)

Hugs,
Aleksandra

Spring Easter Joy

Hello my friends. Today is the time for my first post for Scrapiniec as their DT member and I'm so happy to be with you. Since we just celebrated first spring day and Easter is soon to come, I decided to create an altered egg box with mixed media eggs inside. It's perfect for the decoration of your home for this time of the year.

I used several mixed media mediums to alter both eggs and a box. There is a brand new Scrapiniec collection - Lilly of the Valley, which was perfect for this project, with gorgeous spring blossoms. I also added an gorgeous swirled easter egg from Royal easter collection. I love the result and I hope that you'll like my project to. You can hop over to Scrapiniec blog for even more inspiration or to Scrapiniec store to buy some gorgeous chipboards for your next project. :) Here are the ones I used for this project:
