Terhi Koskinen: February 2016

Hello all! It's my last project for Pyssloteket now. It was so much fun to guest for Pyssloteket blog, here (link).

I made a layout about myself, there is my new ID picture in the layout. I just got a new job, so I wanted to scrapbook some memories and details about it. Such as how the interview went, what is my salary when I started - thing that would be nice to read after years.

New job means much new to learn, but also so many wonderful new faces to get familiar with. It really takes a lot of energy and it's very exhausting but learning new also gives so much energy for a person like me - so curious and so excited about everything new.

Hello! Here I am with my last January Hip Kit layout - my February kits are ready to be opened in my studio and I can't wait to get started.
As I live in Finland, it always takes time to get the kits here. We, the design team, get the kits a bit earlier than all the customers but not much. If you are Hip Kit Club customer in US, you definitely will get your package in the first week of each month, but I'm receiving mine about 18th-30th day each month. You might think that would bother me, but no - Hip Kits are so versatile and not bounded to any holiday, so I can easily scrap my projects in the next month.
Just like this layout, as said it's made with January kits but I don't see anything referring to January. And another example, couple weeks ago I used last May's Color Kit stencils on my layout, so these are really nice to use in any time of the year.

Maybe this is right place to mention I don't get paid of praising the Hip Kits or any other companies I'm working with. I'm standing behind my words and if I don't like the products, I don't use them. I'm also so honest, that I couldn't never write made up opinion here on my blog. Just that if you are getting bored to read my good words about Hip Kits, it's all true and that's the way it is :D

This layout has some Project Life Kit products all over. See what and how from the video above. Enjoy!

Thank you for stopping by!

Hello and happy Sunday! It really is happy for me as right now I'm travelling to get my new puppy home. Yes! After three dog free months, we are getting a new puppy to our family. Her name is Myy, and she is seven week old. Small as a baby but big enough to move to her own home with us. I will definitely share a lot of pictures of her in my Instagram (link) and later here in my blog.

I feel so blessed to have her!

Anyway, back to scrapbooking, this is a layout I created for Create A Smile blog, here (link). I decided to make a layout of the bouquet I made a few weeks ago (here, link). Just because everything can be scrapped, especially things that make some emotion inside me. This one gave me proud and happiness so why not to scrapbook it.

Hi there! Thanks to my dear friend Elina I finally have my own cutting tool, the original Big Shot. She got a bigger one for herself, so I raised my hand and bought the smaller one. The same week Tricksart sent me some gorgeous leave dies - that's why this layout is dedicated to floral theme.

The picture is from last fall. I was doing my crafts in my studio, when hubby came in and gave me flowers! He had a lovely and very thoughtful idea of giving me green plant instead of roses or tulips (which are my favorite!), so he wouldn't have to give me flowers that often. Well, it's about three months now from the day I took the picture, and that sweet little plant has been dead for two months already.. Not that good gardener.

So the layout is all about pastel colors and leaves. I recorded a video so you can see how I created the piece. Lots of paints and papers, as always.

Thanks for stopping by here and Tricksart blog, enjoy the video!

Hello! Guess what? This layout does not include any mixed media. Only few drops of mist, but nothing else. Nothing. Still it looks so good and I'm very proud of it.
January Hip Kits included some rub-ons and brads from My Mind's Eye and those inspired me to do a layout based on them. So the background has the rub-ons all over. I'm usually very shy to add the whole package of something to one page but this was exception. I thought why not, the color scheme was so bold with the red I knew I'm not going to use the left overs in a while, so I added all to one background and now I'm totally in love. This is definitely one of my favorite layouts ever and the creation process taught me a lot.
So, don't be afraid to use strange-looking supplies, they might turn out to be your favorite - off to purchase some more!

Thank you for stopping by, enjoy your day!
