I love you, Mum!

Hi there,

Here is an other post from me, as you can see I am not a person who can speak in public. I get shy and get red, that sort of thing. All the more reason to use this blog and get over it. I don't know you girls/boys(?), but I want to say thank you for leaving your comment :).

This card is made for my mum to celebrate her 79th birthday!

I used the sketch # 19 of PTW , which I completely forgot to sign in for, stupid me :).

Anyway I liked the sketch!

A close up of the Penny Black stamp, aren't they cute?

a Cuttlebug folder, some lace,

a couple of beads in pink and white, a button

a few flower thingies (I really don't know what they are called in English, sorry).

Christmas in July!

Hi,

I follow Magnolia Challange Down Under ,

and they have a challenge: Christmas in July!

Wonderful idea, as I have already started making my Christmascards.

This is one of them and I hope you like it!

I used:

Cardstock and some shiny DP, 2 Magnolia stamps and coloured them with my aquarell pencils by Rembrandt(Lyra) and a waterbrush. The sentiment I made with gold ink, 2 eyelets (they were white but I inkted them with the same gold ink), some ribbon from my stock (I do have a lot ribbons :) ), a peel off text, it says Happy Holidays in Dutch, a flower.

Thanks for watching!

No camera for at least 3 weeks!!!!!

Hi there,
I am a bit sad :-( , because today I posted my camera by mail to be repared. It takes about 3 weeks! I hope I'll have it back before we go on holidays.
So I have to ask my lovely daughter if I can lend her camera again, hope she won't mind!
Thanks for stopping by.

Embroider, 3D and some ribbon

a closer look

Hi,

Every once in a while I go outdoors (lol) to get new ideas for making cards. Most of the time I get my ideas from pattern books or from the internet.

And as it is, embroider is also one of my hobby's. I got this pattern when I was following a course in cardmaking. Next time I will show you the other card I made.

I got this pattern from "De Lichtvlinder".

The image is by Mattie de Bruine,

the tread is by Mettler,

the beads are from my stock and so is the cardstock.

Thank you for watching!

50 years!!

Hello everyone.

This time I made a card for someone special (aren't they all lol). This lovely girl turned 50 years of age.

This card is very simpel to do. The glittery stripes are made with doublesided tape and glitter ofcourse... The text says Happy Birthday in Dutch. I took some doublesided aslan, placed the peel of flower on it and cut it out, then I glittered the inside of the flower too. The whole table and I where glittery, but this looks really nice and chic!

The cardstock is shimmery and the DP came from my stock.

I enjoyed making this one!!

Thanks for watching!
