Guest Designer > Wilna Furstenberg

Hello! I have a super exciting guest designer for you today! Wilna Furstenberg is someone I have been inspired by for many many years and have been dying to get here on the blog sharing her talents with us! Everything she creates is so stunning and so detailed. I always have to take my time, looking through each and every element of her work because it is all so fabulous! I love how artistic her style is and that she makes me want to try new things and push myself to get messy! Keep reading to see the darling DIY embellished gift bags and cards that she made! She also has a video to show her process for making them!

P.S. I LOVE watching the video just to hear her accent! So cute!! Also, the video is like a mini art class, so it is a MUST watch! You will learn a LOT of awesome techniques that you can use for this project and any other scrapbooking or crafting that you do!! Thanks so much Wilna for taking the time to create such a detailed video for us!!

P.P.S. Today is WILNA’S BIRTHDAY!! Please help me wish her a very happy birthday by commenting on this post!! I would love to shower her with love and kind messages on her special day so please help me out!! Happy Birthday Wilna!!

Hi there! Wilna Furstenberg here! I was so happy (!!) when I received a goodie box from Maggie in the mail with a request to make something pretty for her blog readers! I was super inspired by the Muslin Bags and decided to use the stencil (included with the 4 bags) and 4 different mediums to create the backgrounds. So much fun! When you enjoy playing like this it really is not work at all! Please have a look at the video where I explain my process to you… but please forgive all the bloopers… I was super jet lagged when I made the video having just returned from a 12 day trip to Italy.
As an extra bonus for Maggie’s readers, I am including a link to my most recent online class called Fresh techniques for Artful Layouts for a 50% discount! YAY! (Link at the end of the post.)

When Associate College diplomas are a great way to start, completing ones Bachelors opens up many good opportunities to various careers, there are numerous internet Bachelor Course Programs available by institutions like The University of Phoenix, Intercontinental University Online and Kaplan. Another thing is that many brick and mortar institutions offer you Online variants of their college diplomas but often for a extensively higher cost than the organizations that specialize in online college degree programs.

    I believe that a property foreclosure can have a major effect on the debtor’s life. Mortgage foreclosures can have a 6 to several years negative affect on a debtor’s credit report. The borrower who has applied for home financing or any kind of loans for that matter, knows that the particular worse credit rating is usually, the more tricky it is to have a decent mortgage. In addition, it may possibly affect a new borrower’s capacity to find a quality place to let or rent, if that gets the alternative homes solution. Good blog post.

    Things i have observed in terms of pc memory is that there are specific features such as SDRAM, DDR and many others, that must match up the specifications of the motherboard. If the computer’s motherboard is rather current while there are no operating system issues, replacing the ram literally usually takes under an hour or so. It’s one of many easiest laptop or computer upgrade types of procedures one can envision. Thanks for expressing your ideas.

    Thanks for the concepts you have contributed here. In addition, I believe there are some factors which keep your automobile insurance premium straight down. One is, to take into account buying motors that are within the good list of car insurance providers. Cars which have been expensive tend to be at risk of being snatched. Aside from that insurance is also in line with the value of your truck, so the higher in price it is, then higher the actual premium you make payment for.

    Thanks for your posting on this site. From my own experience, there are times when softening right up a photograph may provide the photographer with an amount of an inventive flare. Many times however, the soft blur isn’t just what you had under consideration and can quite often spoil an otherwise good image, especially if you thinking about enlarging them.

    It’s my belief that mesothelioma is usually the most lethal cancer. It has unusual traits. The more I actually look at it the more I am convinced it does not behave like a real solid tissues cancer. If perhaps mesothelioma is often a rogue viral infection, then there is the prospects for developing a vaccine and offering vaccination for asbestos exposed people who are really at high risk connected with developing long run asbestos associated malignancies. Thanks for discussing your ideas about this important ailment.

    I have discovered that intelligent real estate agents all around you are Marketing and advertising. They are recognizing that it’s more than just placing a sign post in the front property. It’s really with regards to building interactions with these dealers who later will become buyers. So, if you give your time and efforts to encouraging these sellers go it alone — the “Law regarding Reciprocity” kicks in. Good blog post.
