Come Meet Guest Designer: Olga Heldwein

We are excited to introduce you to our guest designer for November: Olga Heldwein from Poland!!

Olga lives in Warsaw with her hubby, son, and two very fat cats! She is a very gifted scrapbooker whose talents adjust to any project she is working on! She has created some amazing pieces for us today ranging from layouts, to altered finds, to a home-made winter cottage! Just scroll down to see her creativity!

"I love to alter things. This one is one of my treasures from the flea market."

"With Prima products I made my own creative alarm clock. It's always a good time to be creative! Here I used one of Ingvild's vintage bulbs, and I have to say it, "They are fabulous!!! Just love this idea!!!" ~Olga

Peek at this amazing little chalet! And it is entirely hand-made. AMAZING.

"I love to make these winter houses. With Prima products it was sooo much a pleasure."

"I made the whole house myself from chipboard and old book pages." (She is very resourceful too!)

"Papers and embellishments aren't in the Christmas spirit, but with gesso and glitter they could be! I used some paper book pages here too. I just couldn't stop myself." :)

(Is that not the most darling chalet ever?)

Olga's next project is a beautiful layout!

"Prima papers are perfect for delicate, feminine works... especially Rondelle and Tea Thyme."

"On this layout I used a reprint of my mama's photo. It was taken on her wedding day and I absolutely love this picture!"

"Prima embellishments perfectly accent the photo, and capture the moment with it. For the first time I used flocked rub-ons and I fell in love with them!! Totally !!"

Olga's last project uses our Prima Palette for November!

"I used every colour from Prima's colour palette. It's totally amazing and energy combined!!! I framed one of my fall photos on canvas. The background is made with a brick mask, distress ink, and Prima chalk inks using a dry brush technique. Because it's a fall theme I used many leaves. Those Prima leaves are amazing!!! You can easily change them with any ink and they look like real ones because of their amazing structure. The alpha stickers are also coloured, but with distress inks." ~Olga
