If things look a little different around here, you’re in the right place — the blog has a new dress! I felt like giving it a softer, more romantic look, with dusty pink cherry blossoms, dark textures and a little Japanese-inspired scrapbook charm.
Of course, “I’ll just change a few things” turned into moving boxes around, trying different details and deciding that something needed to go just a little further up. Then down again. Apparently even a blog needs to try on a few outfits before finding the right one. 😄
I’m happy with how it’s coming together, and I hope you’ll enjoy having a look around. And the blog isn’t the only one with something new to wear: Franka finally has her matching ScrapKit!
Meet Patchwork Soul
In my last post, I said there wasn’t a matching kit for Franka yet. Well… apparently I wasn’t quite finished with her after all. Patchwork Soul is now here, and the two belong together.
60 elements · 2 frames · 6 papers
The kit brings together charcoal, muted mulberry, soft sage and antique ivory, with stitched hearts, patchwork fabrics, lace, dark flowers and vintage sewing details. It has that slightly worn, romantic gothic feel that goes so nicely with Franka’s outfit. A few stitches, a little lace, a slightly dramatic heart — she seems quite at home in it.
Patchwork Soul is a free, tagger-size kit for personal use. You’ll find it on the ScrapKits page. Franka is on the Tubes page, and both listings now include a little note so you can easily see which set belongs with which kit.

Please take a moment to read the Terms of Use included in the download before creating. And if you make something with Franka and Patchwork Soul, I’d love to see it!
Thank you for stopping by, taking a look at the new blog dress and spending a little time in my creative corner. Have fun creating — I’ll try not to rearrange the furniture while you’re here. 🖤
