Birthday wishes

Hi there,

I hope you all started good this year! The wether is cold, can't remember it being so cold and snowy, bbrrr. I don't want to go out, but who is going to do the shopping? That'll be ME.

Today I want to share this giftbox with you, I made for my SIL. I found some green, shiny paper (A4), I got from a no longer existing store, there is no name on them (so sorry) and an empty transparent box. I used this as a template.


The stamps are Magnolia and WOJ (sentiment) some flowers and Martha Stewart (frond) .
Coloured with watercolourpencils. Cut with Cuttlebug and square Nestabilities.
Hope you like it.
Thanks for stopping by!

Woohoo, I am a winner!

Hi,

as the post says: I am a winner of a blogcandy from Bev!

And what did I win? I'll show you:

Isn't she gorgeous this stamp from Magnolia?

Yessssssss, I like her already.

O, Mr Postman bring her home to me.... I'll let you know when she arrives!

Hugs and thanks for stopping by.

Pink Magnolia

Hi, here is another post from me. It's been a while since I posted, sorry for that.
This time I wanted to show you a card with an old Magnolia stamp. I made the card a while ago, just for fun. The other day my next door neighbour came to me and asked if I had a nice card for her. Her mother was taken ill into hospital and she wanted a card with flowers. She came across this one and so I had to finish it on the inside.

Here is a peek inside:

The image is from Magnolia series Pink 2008. I coloured her with aquarell pencils by Rembrandt as usual. I can't remember the name of the DP, but they are old, very old. I have a lot of very old DP, I need to make me some cards with them lol. The flowers and ribbon are from stash. The peel off says: Get well (in Dutch of course)

You can also see my new watermark, made by my creative daughter. Thank you, Karin!!

Thank you for stopping by,

And yes, there is a new signature too, also made by my daughter.

Old Magnolia and Pink Ribbon

Hi there,

Sorry but I am not a regular poster. I just can't make a card every day. For that I need my own craftroom ;)!
This card was made for one of my neighbours, she has breastcancer. In 2003 they dicovered it and she still is going strong! She has had some operations and chemotherapy. Anyway this card was made for her. The pink bracelet can be taken of the card and you can tie it with some knots to your wrist and make a wish. If the bracelet falls of by wearing it, so the story tells us, your wish comes true. I hope, by that time, she's still with us!!!

Thank you for stopping by.

Christmas card with Magnolia

Hi, I hope you have a nice weekend with beautiful sunshine too.
Finally a card! After 3 blogcandy posts, it was about time too, haha.
I have started to make christmas cards and having fun with them.



Close-up
The flowers: underneath is a flower, I punched with Martha Stewart and made some snowflakes with my Cuttlebug die, put a brad through the lot and finished it with a green pearl on top of it.

Thanks for stopping by!

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!

Yolanda
