Scrap and Music - Reveal # 27

Good morning, friends!
Here to share one more amazing reveal of Scrap and Music.
This time, we have to combine a great sketch by Ana Castro + a beautiful song: "Paradise", by Coldplay.
I used the wonderful collection "Porcelain Rose", by Kaisercraft, and flowers by Prima Marketing and INKIDO.

You can listen to the song here!

The sketch...

My take on the sketch...

The title "Girl" is part of the song... I cut it on Silhouette...

Closer...

The beautiful elements of Kaisercraft!

Thanks so much for visiting me! We are waiting for your beautiful projects at Scrap and Music!

Desafio Zarza Laser de Maio!!! Vem!!!

Bom dia, amigas e amigos queridos.

Hoje vamos falar sobre sonhos e amores...
Quem não tem um sonho ou um amor bem guardadinho no coração?
Pode ser um sonho que parece impossível, ou um amor escondido, um sonho realizado ou não, um amor que se concretizou... sonhar e amar realmente valem a pena, sempre! É o que nos faz crescer, viver realmente...
E nossa proposta de Maio tem tudo a ver com esses sonhos e amores que guardamos...

Para participar desse desafio basta ouvir uma linda canção e deixar seu tema fluir... A canção é apenas uma inspiração... as regras são as seguintes:

1. Seguir o combo de cores: pode ser total ou apenas algumas cores. Você pode usar todas as cores, ou apenas uma delas, pode acrescentar outras, sinta-se livre para criar!

2. Usar 2 peças Zarza Laser quaisquer, pode ser chipboard, título, carimbo, máscara, o que preferir.

3. Publicar seu projeto em uma rede social pública e colocar seu link no blog Zarza Laser, na barra lateral direita, até o dia 26 de Maio.

A vencedora ganhará uma caixa recheada de produtos Zarza Laser + um kit de papéis e embelishments que eu enviarei, como forma de agradecimento pessoal!

Então vamos lá...
A música escolhida foi "O Sonho" de minha banda preferida "Madredeus". Espero que gostem...

A letra vocês podem encontrar aqui.

As cores... não esqueça que você não precisa usar o combo todo!

Para ilustrar nosso desafio, as DTs Zarza Laser fizeram lindos projetos e também tem uma convida especial nesse desafio, a querida Catarina Monguilhott. Para ver o reveal inteirinho, basta clicar AQUI!

Esse é o meu projeto...
Trata-se de um sonho realizado, mas que, infelizmente, acabou antes da hora! Minha Dança Flamenca, uma de minhas maiores paixões... fiz por muito tempo parte de uma companhia de dança maravilhosa... amor que me deixou muita saudade!!!

Obrigada pela visita!

Aguardamos a participação de todas vocês em nosso desafio. Não se esqueçam que o prazo se encerra em 26 de Maio.

Beijos com carinho e sorte!!!

Inkido April Challenge... our roots!!!

Hello, friends!
I'm here to share my take on this inspiring Mood Board, for April Inkido Challenge. The colors are great and the elements amazing!
Inspired by two colors of the board and by the theme "our roots", I used two photos of my sweet daughter where she is feeling the sand on her hands and the wind on her face... unfortunately we don't live in a beach city, but the sea flows in our veins, for sure... that's why chose these pictures... we love the sea!!!
I hope you like it!!!

The gorgeous mood board...
