I am wondering if I love the beginning of a new year because I am a listmakerjunkie 😉
Sharing my intentions with you publicly allows me to kind of feel accountable, because I also want to share my progresses along the way. However, I refuse to beat myself up if it does not end up as planned.
Here are my intentions for this space that my blog is:

I love 7 dots studio, brand that I discovered through the amazingly talented Anna Dabrowska (aka Finnabair). The lines are so gorgeous that, to be totally honest with you, it is a bit intimidating to work with for me as I tend to cover up most of my paper layers in my creative process.
I started by tearing the beautiful Messy Head paper to 9×12”, I love ragged edges. Then, I mixed some Gab Me With A Spoon Gray Magical Mica with soft glossy gel medium to create a wonderful shimmery paste, that I simply applied with one of my Catalyst wedge here and there (it was helping me to overcome the «blank page» syndrom). I also used it for the top left corner.
I love love love the new dusty rose color, Bodalicious Blush, and sprayed it through a stencil as well.
Gel media and our LSG products love each other, proof is I used heavy gel with our Midnight Rendezvous Raven glitters (still from Totally 80’s) to stencil through and create her leafy wings; and then again with another stencil that I sprayed, once dry, with Icy Primrose Gold (a discontinued color) *the ink goes in the cracks and creates natural contrast*.
I used Fiber paste mixed with Time Travel Teal Magical Mica to create a great texture for her hair. It stayed so vibrant even once dry.
The short sentences on this paper are great, you don’t necessarily see them at first but they are here.
I embossed the drops with Pumpkin Fiesta and Hydrangea Blue Mauve embossing powders, I did want the overlapping of the two colors so it was totally made on purpose.
Her antlers were cut out from the What Wood U Say paper, and then sprayed with Cowabunga Copper before being glued.
For her dress, I used the Sweet Dreams paper from the Dreamer collection. The fabric and colors were perfect for a dress. I did not want it to lay flat on top of the rest so I applied gel medium through a stencil, and to make it pop just a little more, sprayed with a golden Starburst Spray (as said earlier).
Her messages, Little Miracles, comes from the Messy Head Elements. I simply sprayed it with Cape Cod Coral and glued it where it seemed important.
I used Frolic In The Forest Green Magical Mica (from the Tickle Me Fancy set) for her eyes. And last but not least, I splattered the amazingly unique Sweet Violet Purple Teal as a final touch.
Hello Hello !
A quick note to let you know that Google Reader (I think the most popular RSS reader most people used to follow the blogs they love) is closing its doors tomorrow.
I am now using Bloglovin’, which allowed me to import all my feeds from Google Reader easily so I didn’t forgot anyone I was following. I am inviting you to do the same, so you’ll still see my new posts 🙂
Of course, there are other options such as Feedly. I just wanted to remind you that you won’t be able to access your feeds on Google Reader from tomorrow on and that today is the day to export/import everything.
Have a great week-end
