Back to Bollywood NEW @ Studio Berna @ ScrapbookGraphics

Berna — Fri, 30 Mar 2012 13:24:19 +0000

Finally! It’s ready folks: I think this was the collection I worked on for the longest period of time I ever did making just one collection Anyway, I myself think it was worth waiting for. It was a blast to make it and I think you will have a blast making layouts with my Back to Bollywood collection. Why? Because my CT doesn’t know how to stop making new layouts The collection, especially the background and a lot of flowers, are made by hand: hand paited.For the real digiscrap fashionista’s: There’s no better background than one that’s real hand painted. With real brushes and ditto paint (acrylic and aquarel). Just another dimension in digital scrapping: Haute Scrapture. Haute scrapture is guaranteed made this way: I painted the flowers and branches and backgrounds, used all kind of methods to digitalize it afterwards, and only at that time the paintings were made into the backgrounds as you can see them now. These papers were not made with any commercial use products. Just guaranteed pure Berna. I hope you appreciate it!

To celebrate my 5 years at ScrapbookGraphics, there is a wonderful offer until July: Get the whole collection (economy pack) for $29.95 (worth over $55!!!!!) The economy pack contains everything and is bigger than I ever made a collection. Okay, here’s what inside:

So… now I have very colorful products for you to do your snowy white photo’s… or the photo’s you still have to do from last Summer Either way, I hope you like it!

Most of the alphabets are still available. Just comment underneath this topic if you cannot find it.

Now I could tell a lot about this collection, but fact is: it’s all blue. Okay, and white. I was inspired by the delft blue old tiles which we see often here in old houses and some restaurants. I also love angels, and reindeer or deer, birds, glitter, Christmas tree balls etc. And so this year I made my Christmas collection with all kind of favorites. Btw. you might not like it, but my personal favorite color is not blue, LOL! Though I like every color and I think this color is great for Christmas, and for all people, my personal favorite is orange. Don’t laugh! I mean it. Sun is orange, oranges are great as fruits too, and it’s the color of lipstick that looks best on my lips. Anyway, we have….

Kit (this is new) with all 30 papers of the 3 paper packs plus the elements set for 12.95 (worth 16.95)

Guest designer @ Digital Scrapbooking Studio ~The Studio

Berna — Sun, 04 Dec 2011 10:37:44 +0000

One of the most lovely collabs I worked on lately, is the Winter Folk. I designed it together with Christine Mortimer from Digilicious and Aimee Harrison from Aimee Harrison designs. I loved the colors, but I most of all loved what I learned from this unique combination of designers. It was a real pleasure to design with them! Get the collection here: http://www.digitalscrapbookingstudio.com/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=375

More collections I run at Digital Scrapbooking Studio: I have a collection from years ago, and it’s called Painting Angel. It’s still one of my favorite Christmas collections I ever made. But… since there were some elements in it that I wouldn’t make like that anymore these days, I really had to revise this collection. See it in the same shop @ the Studio and know that it’s only temporary there, because I’m only a guest designer

You won’t be disappointed: Now 25% off!

Nocturne

Berna — Fri, 28 Oct 2011 07:14:39 +0000

It’s dark, it’s green, it’s ugly.., and it is now in the shop @ Studio Berna …. Beware!!!!

Nocturne is a collection that comes right from the heart. It’s mystical, magical, a little scary and if you listen closely you could almost feel the music that goes so well with this theme! My critter tells me that you should have Thriller from Michael Jackson on while scrapping with the collection. And I can only agree. But, being a huge fan of the Twilight films, I can also imagine you listen to the movie sounds belonging to that series. And, have you even heard the wonderful Nocturne piano music from Chopin. Here’s what I mean:

If you do not like it, please turn it off, but remember: this was the inspiration for me

The economy pack contains everything that I designed with this theme and it is the sublime value pack for your wonderful Halloween night! have fun and a wonderful scary night
