Capturing Memories with Adventure's Return from 3Quarter Designs

Hello, fellow craft enthusiasts! 

There’s something truly special about working with wooden hoops in art projects. The simple, circular frame of a wooden hoop brings a sense of warmth and authenticity to any piece, adding a rustic charm that’s hard to replicate with other materials.

For my recent project, I used the Adventure's Return collection from 3Quarter Designs. The papers in this collection are filled with beautiful, travel-inspired designs that evoke a sense of wanderlust. Vintage maps, retro cameras, compasses, and travel quotes all came together to create the perfect background and accents. This collection captures the excitement of exploration and discovery, making it an ideal choice for anyone looking to bring a sense of adventure into their art.

Most of the time, I create these hoop art pieces with photos of my daughter, Angelika. Using her photos adds a deeply personal touch, making each piece a unique snapshot of our memories together. The hoop becomes more than just a frame; it’s the foundation that shapes the entire artwork, creating a focal point that invites viewers to step in and explore every detail.

Wooden hoops have become my go-to medium, offering endless possibilities and a timeless aesthetic. Pairing them with high-quality papers like those from the Adventure's Return collection brings my art to life, capturing memories, emotions, and moments in a way that’s both personal and visually captivating. I’m excited to keep exploring where each new hoop will take me, as each project feels like a journey in itself!

Get Inspired!
