I was so happy with his the blending of the greens in the figure. Then so disappointed at the logo’s background. But still, we share success and failure both.

April spread is minimalistic and monotone. It’s a hard period for everyone but I hope you all stay home, stay healthy and stay creative!! 🖌 #bujo #bujo2020 #bullet #journal #bulletjournal #april #aprilspread #bucketlist #minimal #minimaltheme https://www.instagram.com/p/B-iIOLbgtIg/?igshid=nvgk3m2d0huu

Had a bit of brown leftover clay and thought I’d make a tiny witchcraft book. Just a quick clay craft, to fill in the day! ✨ #polymer #clay #polymerclay #fimo #fimoclay #fimocreations #magic #witch #witchcraft #book #spellbook #spell #magicbook https://www.instagram.com/p/B-P8rmiAuyi/?igshid=qh8fs9puilqb

More video game posters!! 🖌 This time it’s an Assassin’s Creed poster, since I couldn’t decide on a single game poster (as I am a fan of all of them) so I chose to make one inspired by the movie they made! #movie #videogames #videogame #assassinscreed #ac #acmovie #watercolor #water #color #poster #movieposter #gaming #gamingposter #gamer #nerd #nerdy #geek #geeky https://www.instagram.com/p/B94R9B8g27Y/?igshid=1pzuf82nzhyvs

As promised, the mood and habit trackers! I wanted to try something new this month and decided that it was a wonderful opportunity for a new tracker system. 🖊 Again, huge thanks to @rem.bujo who inspired me into this map & travel theme, she’s incredibly talented and you should all go check her work!! 😁 #bullet #journal #bujo #bulletjournal #bujo2020 #bujoinspiration #bujoideas #march #marchtheme #trackers #bujotrackers #map #travel #maptheme #traveltheme #compass #habbittracker #moodtracker https://www.instagram.com/p/B9gxDzKgEAX/?igshid=8ez1mjktutyj

Delayed -again- but March is here! 🗺

I mutilated a map and I don’t know how I feel about this. But this month’s bullet journal theme -inspired by the work of the amazing @rem.bujo 🌸- is so colorful and pretty!! 😁

Trackers will be posted in a separate post, because I love how they turned out too much and want them to get some special attention! 😋

I tried to recreate -at least, to a certain point- a wonderful artwork by the incredible @kelogsloops.

I’ve been a fan of his work for years and I’ve always found his style to be so inspiring, beautifully flowy yet balanced. So I decided to try and practice on skin tones and gradients, with a certain level of success. 😝

He supports experimentation with art and that piece of advice has helped me a lot to overcome the anxiety of a self-taught artist (not that I claim to be one). I highly recommend you check out Hieu’s beautiful work! And experiment with art yourself!

A looong time ago, I made a few video game posters with watercolor. They were meant to be a gift, but I decided to make a few more. Here’s a Fallout one, there were meant to be holes where the yellow splashes are, but I was afraid I’d ruin the paper and I changed my mind. 😋

Let me know if you have suggestions on more gaming watercolor posters!

I am a big fan of lists and cleaning, so I made a list about cleaning. 😋 I blurred out what I wrote, as I didn’t think to relevant when I changed bedsheets. But I still wish to share this idea and hope it’ll help others stay on track with their chores too!

Oh no, I definitely didn’t completely forget I even took this pictures of the sushi necklaces I made a while back. 😇 🥢

For no reason whatsoever, I made a sheriff’s star. 🤷‍♀

Tiny update

I decided to post all pictures here, instead of just sharing things from Instagram and missing the rest of the photos of projects. Mostly to make it easier for you to see the entire project and not go back and forth to Instagram.

February is here!

This month I decided to try a butterfly theme. Exhausting as it was and difficult (mistakes here and there, especially bleeding of the colors around other pages >.

[thefourcrafts]

Final product! I’m so glad this turned out so cute! My only regret is painting the foam and then having to wipe/wash the paint, but I still love it!

The printer also ruined the quality of the photo but I still love it, despite the small imperfections! 😁 Hope you guys got inspired by this tiny tutorial! Have a great day!

Of course I didn’t forget to post he plays part, because I was gaming. 😝 - Part 3 -

Part three is basically the finished product, after assembly and perhaps painting or decorating the box. BUT! I was really disappointed with the black foam, so I washed it and it’s back at it’s white-ish look. Will post the final product in a short video. It’s a one-day built but it was a lot of fun and I will definitely make more as gifts. 😁

Let’s get to the next steps! - Part 2 -

I dressed the inside of the metal box with felt, to make sure the dices won’t scratch the metal and get damaged as well.

But then I made a mistake. I painted the foam, which didn’t come out as I wanted it. But I tried it anyway, just to see how it looks like when the whole thing is black.
