I cannot imagine living without my fussy cutting scissors, paper trimmer and hot glue gun!

Magda Porzych - Paperlikeme

 

1. Since when have you been into crafting?
Scrapbooking stole my heart five years ago. But being always busy, I didn't have much time to create. The 2019 turned out to be a breakthrough for me and I decided to give up some of my obligations for the sake of my passion. And that's the year when the best adventure of my life has started.

2. Which technique do you like best?
Die cutting is my favorite technique and I can't imagine my scrapbooking life without it. I love to make flowers so flower shaped die cuts are my favorite. I can't picture a composition without leaves. So I have a quit big collection of leaf die cuts. They also are a very helpful and easy way to personalize any gift.

3. What product cannot you imagine to craft without?
I can't imagine crafting without three products. First very obvious  - scrapbooking paper. Second - chipboards and third - this is my latest love - shabby ribbons.

4.Which category in the 14 craft bar are you most likely to visit?
My favorite  departments in 14 craft bar  are closely related to my favorite products. When I visit a shop I always have a look at what's new in the paper department. I never pass indiscriminately by folders and ribbons. But there is one more section which I visit on a regular basis it's foamiran department.

5. What's new do you want to try in 2021? New product, technique?
2021 will be the year in which I will focus on creating albums and journals, perfecting my technique and discovering all the possibilities this form offers.

4.Which category in the 14 craft bar are you most likely to visit?
So hard to choose! I will cheat and pick two - scrapbooking papers and haberdashery (the shabby ribbons make my heart so happy!)

5. What's new do you want to try in 2021? New product, technique?
I want to do more mixed media type projects in 2021 - I love experimenting with different textures together but I am not always brave enough.

Decoupage jewellery mini box

 I made couple of New Year's resolutions this year. One of them is to try new technique in crafting. I decided to try decoupage. It is completely new thing to me and to be honest it costs me lot of patience. It is different then cardmaking because you have to wait until all glues and varnishes will dry and it makes me crazy. 

As my first decoupage project I made small jewellery box. I used here beautiful napkin with red flowers and gears paper. I also used new mold and fantastic 14 Craft Bar air dry clay. To add a little bit of elegance I finished it with gold goldpaste.
