Chanel Stravaganza by Marcelo 🖤🤍🖤🤍

Fashion and paper dolls: what an amazing way to craft and play!

For my second projects using Paperbabe Stamps products, I wanted to use the theme Chanel. 

I made some research and drew some models with the brand style, other than a model dressed as a Karl Lagerfeld's tribute.

The first model's outfit is a black and white-clean Chanel model. 

I thought that some fancy jewelry was a great complement for the look.

The next model, also inspired by the brand's haute couture shows, is a modern young fancy bridal outfit. I named this girl Naomi (you can imagine why ☺️).

I think this is the most beautiful I created so far! 

The veil and the arms/legs accessories gave a detailed high crafted quality. They should remember us the embroidery and fancy fabrics we ever see in magazines.

As I said before, the third girl is a tribute to the great designer and art director for Chanel, Karl Lagerfeld. She wears a clean black outfit, with Karl's style white high collar.

Moment I confess: while I was creating the clothes for this girl, any position I put it on the table was a stunning pose! It happens a lot of times, I had to make a photo... 🤣

This bodies forms are perfect, so it's impossible don't create perfect dolls! 

Well... it was like to play with living models!

I hope you like this project!

I invite you to see the products available at Paperbabe Stamps store and try them!

Thank you so much...

Jam Tea Party by Marcelo

 I just LOVE tea parties. We don't need a special celebration to do it.

When we have a great inspiration, that's awesome!

Looking my journal materials, I found a stamp set I bought some years ago, There was a little jar stamp in this set. It gave me a super inspiration: JAMs! 

Well, why not create a Jam Tea Party? YES!

At First, I created the special jar, the "major character" of this decoration.

After that I needed an invitation for my special friends!

The table  was like this: colorful, with few flowers. 

The placeholder was a little jam jar (in the end, the person could take it home as a party favor). 

I also create a little recipe book as a party favor (we are talking about a jam tea party, so some recipes would be shared there). I love this idea!

I hope you like it!

I made a little video for you...

XOXO

We can use 4 "givens" and 4 "choices". 

The 4 givens:

- Paper (I chose coffee stained paper)

- Scissors

- Needle and thread

- Glue (I chose white glue)

The 4 choices:

- Cardboard (recycled) for the cover

It was really fun doing this journal!

I created a story about a italian couturier who made paper doll's dresses...

I went crazy with the elements I used!

 If you want to see more, you can watch the video at my Youtube Channel.

I also created some elements for who wants to download and use!

I hope you like my journal and have fun with the downloads...

Birdcages by Marcelo...

I love birdcages as a decoration element - BUT always without birds!

Some time ago I made some birdcages to post as a tutorial at my Facebook page.

I want to show you guys those birdcages... :D

They are really easy to make: we just need some iron wire, a piece of wood for the base and some nails to fix the iron wire!

We can use all your imagination! Create little castels, little houses...

I hope you guys like them.... <3
