We are so thrilled to welcome Marta back as our Creative Guest this April! We LOVE her work, so asking was not hard.

Hi guys,
How are you ? It's Marta Lapkowska here.

I hope you are good and all is well. I have to say I am so happy to be back to you!
I am honoured and super excited to share with you my make for todays guest designer post.
The mood board was trully an inspiration for me.




I decided to create a rusted looking tag. All the browns and yellows were perfect for the old, vintage, rusty look. I need to admit... project was out of my comfort zone but I trully enjoyed the process. I hope you will find it inspirational enough to play in this month challenge.
Just for you gyus, I have also prepared a full video tutorial. Sit back, relax and I hope enjoy!

We are happy to feature our winner from the February Challenge - Caroline Parent. Caroline made a really beautiful layout that really caught our eyes!

Creative Winner Facts



Hi, My name is Caroline I’m a mother of three boys, in love with my best friend for 15 years. I scrapbook since 2005 or around, when I became a mother. My sons are my inspiration but as they grown up they don’t want to take the pose anymore. Since my beginnings, I had take part of many creative teams like Creative Scrappers, Creative Embellishments, Tchoubi, Lucky 7 Factory and I’m still on the Scrap aux Puces design team (an online store in Quebec) . I have my own flairs brand since a bit more than 2 years: Cuts2luv. I’m a home mother but I can’t stay without projects. That’s why I started to create flairs.

Welcome & Goodby

Today we welcome our newest member Pamellia Johnson and sadly say goodby to Sanderijn, Marta & Nupur. Thank you for this time ladies! Your work are amazing and really inspiring.


Hello Everyone! My name is Pamellia Johnson and I live on Lake Aquitaine in Ontario, Canada with my wonderful husband, our two little girls, Scully (a teacup Maltese) and Pebbles (a teacup black Pomeranian), and more recently, a family of adorable squirrels as well.

I have been crafting in some form or another since I was a little kid. I've dabbled in a variety of crafts, but my true passion has always been card making. I have recently discovered the world of mixed media and since getting back in touch with nature, I find I just can't stop myself from reaching for those crackle pastes and paints!

I am always discovering new products and learning new techniques. I find a great sense of satisfaction in working out a process from beginning to end, even the bumps in the road teach us about our art and ourselves! There's no denying the sense of accomplishment a handmade project can bring you.

Thank you so much to Marie for inviting me to become a part of the Words and Paintery team. I am thrilled and honoured to be here with such a talented group of artists.

We would like to show you some samples of Pamellias gorgous work:



Thank you for joining our team Pamellia!

At least in big parts of the world. Light, sun and warmth inject us with life and that is what we have had in mind when creating the April Challenge. Bright sunny colors combined with copper brown gives you a intriguing challenge this month!
