Hi again. It's me, from the middle of the big, fat, cold Polish winter ;) Woo hoo! It's frosty and white here - and it is really beautiful, but harsh time too!
Today I want to share a project I started last month - an altered book, which is my new journal now too. I embellished it and made pages inside using Prima products - and I love the effect :)
Should I mention there is not a single flower on it? :) Well - Prima has really, really a lot of amazing stuff - not only flowers!
Here is the cover - and you can learn more about this project in this Prima blogpost. I really had great time altering this old book bought in Irish Charity Shop - "Odyssey" by Homer - real beauty with a lot of handwritten notes. I was so excited when I found it! Now the cover looks like that...
Thank you so much for being here. I appreciate all your visits and comments, even if I can't answer for all of them! I wish you all wonderful, relaxing Christmas time spent with those you love!

Close up - with great zipper and trinket...
Here is one of the pages inside - based on old family photo. You can see a bit of gesso, stamping and Prima embellishments too! The beautiful brown color is one of my favorite mediums - homemade sea stain:)
I've got something more for you too!
Here is the page inspired by Autumn and an old photo of my mother, Hanna - created in the same "Family book". But this time I've got it on video for you - done step-by step!

Completely gorgeous and so inspiring! Love the step by step video! Thanks for sharing!
This is absolutely beautiful! I love your attention to all the details. I have been wanting to give it a go at mixed media for several years now and just have not done so. I would love to make something like this using a photo of my mom in the 60's. She passed a way a little over a year ago and this would be a fabulous keepsake. Thanks so much for all the inspiration.
Oh Boy...this really, really rocks....just ADORE it!!!!!!! Those inside pages are so, so imaginatively put together:):):)
Brilliant! Simply Brilliant!!! Thank you for a super video.
