A tribute for Anne Frank - Gone but not forgotten with ABstudio......


 A Tribute for Anne Frank, I can hear you say....WHY......well you know after the second world war everybody made it clear "This may never happen again" If you look a the world right know, all Hell broke loose. After the ocotober attack on again the jewish people
       Israel declared war on the terrorist organization Hamas.
    Suddenly everyone has forgotten what the Jewish people had to endure during the Second World War, and a large part of the world is turning its back on Israel.

Well not me, I feel one with the Jewish people. As a child I was almost not interested in anything I just wanted to know everything about the Jewish people and what they had to endure during and just before the outbreak of the Second World War.

Anne Frank is my hero,
    a young girl who described her life in hiding from the Nazis during the occupation of the Netherlands during the second world war. Her diary is the most read book of all time.

In my design I used chipboard windows a symbol for "het Achterhuis" behind the de book shelf.

The frames are a symbol for the love she had for famous artists, the pictures / photo's she collect are still at the same place she put them on. 

 

I used text strips from different ABstudio collections, I chose words and texts that most closely match her.

 

For this design / tribute I used the following ABstudio materials:

Enjoy Life with Scrapaholics Chipboard.......

Hi Craftyfriends, today a new design for Scrapaholics Chipboard, my Second in March 2025. For this mini project I used amazing chipboard elements like SC Town Buildings, SC Life Moments Word Set.

    For me this time a mini project, I always have the feeling that this goes faster than a layout, every time I am disappointed. It goes just as fast as a layout, the only advantage is that the project is filled faster while you have put down more materials that you actually wanted to add.

This time I kept the chipboard elements natural, I find the natural color very special. For me the elements do not always have to be edited. 


Besides the great SC chipboard elements I used the paper collection Expected 6x6 inch from ABstudio. with shabby / vintage look.

I hope you like my design and I hope you can see that you can combine Scrapaholics Chipboard with al lot of manufacturies. 

Thank you so much to visit my blog, take care and I hope to see you soon.

The Past with ABstudio......

    If you only knew how my taste in Scrapbooking has changed, when I started this very addictive hobby I was crazy about Clean and Simple which went to Clean - Simple with a touch of Romantic to designs with lots of flowers to now Vintage. At the moment I am melting away from old photo's, old stuff, materials, paper, colors etc etc.

 
    Luckily my DT package contains a lot of these vintage design sheets, it's great to combine them with each other and add things that match the colours beautifully

For this design "The Past I used the following ABstudio collections / materials. "Love for the old things and bonussheet" background sheet "Old Moment" and "In The Past" "Sheet No.5" "Sheet No.3


As you can see in this design I used also lace, I don't know how you think but I think that Vintage en lace are a couple. No lace NoVintage, NoVintage No lace.


 I hope that my design has given you an idea of ​​what you can do with amazing products from ABstudio.

Thanks for watching, take care and I hope to see you next time.
