Tea

The weather has been quite warm in Belgium over the past few days, it almost felt like summer! And it’s been quite a week, yesterday we sold the house that we have been living in for the past 12 years! It was actually sold in January, but only now is it official, with all the necessary paperwork. And next Monday, we are officially going to buy the house that we’ll be moving into in August! We are so much looking forward to moving, we’ll have so much more space and I will have my own studio to work in, how awesome is that!

Because I’m in the mood for it, I have re-released one of my faves at Scrap Girls: Spring Fever, available as a Value Pack and a Collection Biggie, and all packs are separately available, as usual - just click on the images below to go straight to my shop at Scrap Girls.

Spring Fever Printable Kit *NEW*

New is the printable version of the kit, with all papers saved as printable 8.5 x 11 in JPG files (will also print fine as A4) and 8 sheets with embellishments. If you are a hybrid scrapper or paper crafter, if you love making (junk) journals, albums or notebooks, then this is the perfect pack for you! The letter size papers and embellishment sheets are ready to print from your own computer and you do not need Photoshop or any other graphic software to use them. The embellishments have been made up as ‘stickers’ with a white edging and a thin dark gray line around them, and with enough room, allowing you to easily cut around flowers, foliage, illustrations, stamps and so on.

Available here: Etsy | Oscraps | Scrap Girls

Boudoir Chic Papers *NEW*

I had these papers on my computer for some time and now they are available in my Etsy shop. They were created with rich textures, ornamental frames and luxurious gold, and they are perfect for use in junk journals, notebooks, planners, scrapbooking and paper crafting projects, for all kinds of festive themes like weddings, birthdays, Christmas, New Year and so much more! I’ve also created a matching set of blank tags and a pack with tea bag envelopes. Just click on the main preview to go straight to my Etsy shop.

And I used the papers in these tea bag envelopes, perfect as a gift for your mom, your daughter, your sister or friend, if they love tea:

Rustic Wood Chip Alpha *NEW*

This is a fun rustic wood chip alphabet! The letters have an engraved effect on white birch wood slices. These are perfect for your spring, garden and outdoor projects, but they would also look great in country and casual themed wedding projects! All letters A to Z are included, as well as 6 wood chips with an engraved floral accent ànd one blank chip.

Available here: Etsy | Oscraps

Soon it will be NSD, one of the biggest events in the world of digiscrapping (first Saturday in May). I am working on a few awesome deals for you, there will be special events at Oscraps and Scrap Girls ànd I am working on a new collection… Stay tuned!

Have a great day,

Anja

As you may know I have been designing the free printables that come with the weekly bundles at The Graphics Fairy Membership site, since last summer. It is always such a pleasure (and an honour!) to be able to work with those images and designing printables is something I LOVE to do. Sometimes it is challenging to try and come up with something unique (although Karen and Emily are helping me come up with new ideas ), but it is good to be challenged and some of the things I’ve designed, would never have come to life if I hadn’t been invited by Karen and Emily to do this.

I am offering some of these printables in a slightly altered version in my Etsy shop too. And here’s an overview of what I’ve added over the past few weeks:

Wouldn’t you wish these printable postage stamps were real? Included in this pack is a gorgeous set of postage stamps with vintage harvest fruits and vegetables, dictionary and paint textures. Use them in your digital projects, or in any other (paper)craft project. Or print them and use them to decorate an envelope with a gift for a nature lover! Each stamp comes in a large version and in a small version, and I’ve added sheets for easy printing.

Included in this pack is a gorgeous set of 6 artist trading cards (ATC) with vintage botanical fruit prints. Use them in your digital projects, or in any other (paper)craft project. Or print them (best on heavy paper) and use them as tags or labels. Or frame them and hang them on your wall - these will make a gorgeous fall decor!

Your tea will taste even better if you wrap your tea bags in one of these shabby chic tea packets + matching label! They were created with a dot pattern paper and vintage teacup images. A wonderful DIY gift idea for friends and tea lovers! These tea bag envelopes are very easy to assemble, instructions are included in your ZIP files.

This tea party invitation can be used again and again to invite your family and friends to a high tea party, to a bridal shower or baby shower, or to any other occasion where tea is the main subject. Included is a front and back, and an editable Photoshop file, that will allow you to customize the invitation - I’ve included information about the fonts that I used. If you are not good with graphic software, simply print and add your own text in writing, or use a program like Word or Picmonkey to add text.

These printable tags were created with vintage fairies and flowers and soft grunge sheet music backgrounds. They have a burlap reinforcement. Use these beautiful tags in your digital scrapbooking or art journaling layouts, or print them for your hybrid projects, for art journaling, for gift tags and so on.

This is a gorgeous set of printable bookmarks, with a sheet music background, some paint, ornamental fragments in gold, and gypsies and flowers. These bookish gifts would make a great surprise for booklovers or for music lovers, for a sister, mother, wife or friend!

Included in this pack is a set of printable CD sleeves, created with vintage fairies and flowers and soft grunge sheet music backgrounds. You can use them as storage for music CD’s, or CD’s and DVD’s with family photos and videos. They will brighten up your (music) library ànd they make a wonderful gift wrapping for presents. They are really easy to assemble (instructions included).

For now, all these packs are exclusively available in my Etsy shop, but I’ll be adding some of them (if not all) to my Oscraps in the weeks and months to come!

Have a great day,

Anja

Have you seen this week’s ephemera kit at the Graphics Fairy Premium Membership site? They are offering an amazing set of celestial images. I created 3 printables - one of those printables is a set of printable tea bag envelopes - that are free with your membership. But, if you are not a premium member, you can purchase an alternative version of the tea bag envelopes in my Etsy shop.

Tea is always a good idea

Your tea will taste even better if you wrap your tea bags in one of these printable tea bag envelopes + matching label! They were created with a gold marble and blue marble background, some floral elements, and a vintage paper texture. A wonderful tea gift idea for a tea lover! They are very easy to assemble, instructions are included in your ZIP files.

Available in my Etsy shop

Enjoy!
