August Creative Guest

This months Guest was has a love story with the colors of this months Challenge. Most of her work has a soft color scheme and the style is really unique. Please welcome Jana Korecic!

Creative Guest Facts

My name is Jana Korecic and I come from Slovenia where I live with my husband Matej and my precious six years son Kian.

My whole life has been connected somehow with art and crafts, but when I discovered scrapbook I immediately felt that this was what I was searching for. In fact I'm one of the first scrappers in my country and I try to spread this marvelous art with having my periodical scrapbook classes and love to make tutorials on my blog. I follow an intense desire to explore the art world and strive to improve my style. I love to make my projects airy with a lot of dimension and symbolic value. I love my Gothic Fairytale style in my projects. I love to try new products and I love using them in unexpected ways. I always try to get something extraordinary out of everyday ordinary things.

The Project

Thank you Jana for the gorgous project you made!!

If you haven´t joined our August Challenge there is still time. You find it here!
