>>>ABOUT YANA<<<
>>>ABOUT YANA<<<
Hi everyone! I'm Yana! I’ve been married for a little bit over two or three years now, no kids but we do have two black cats and we can’t live without them!
Together with my hubby I love to travel across
the world and meet new people, discover new cultures and just explore. Our next
dream destination is Madagascar, I hear the nature there is simply
breathtaking!
I enjoy scrapbooking and I mostly scrapbook about
our travels (I often take long pauses from scrapbooking when I have no new
travel photos to scrapbook). My other passion is cardmaking – I enjoy trying
new products and techniques, experimenting and creating in different styles.
I’m very much into stamping and die cutting although I never really though I
was until I took a closer look at my cards and noticed almost all of them use
stamps and dies!
>>>YANA'S PROJECTS<<<
My first project features a background using
texture paste and Scenery: Persuasion Script Creative Screenings stencil. I also used beautiful flower images from the The Big, the Bold and Extras set to stamp and cut out the flowers. Finally I added a big bold Love to the
top left part of my project using a stamp from the The Big, the Bold, and the Happy set. Several of the black dots trio from The Big, the Bold and Extras set were stamped directly onto a textured background to give my project a finished
look.
My second project uses the Scenery: V for cheVron stamp set to create a fun and modern background for a Valentine's Day card. To
tone the background down a bit I added a layer of vellum. I did some of my
stamping directly on vellum and also stamped and cut a few elements out using
the You've Got Love Mail and The Big, the Bold, and the Happy sets.
