DT-work Creating Memorys

This months assignment as DT-work for Creating Memorys, was making a pillowbox.
We got a pattern to make one, it's really easy to make it and here's mine...
Kept it quite simple so you can use it for many occasions.

Take a look at the other DT-members work at: http://www.creatingmemoryschallengeblog.blogspot.com/

All materials: Stampin'Up (just love the way the colors perfectly match with each other!)

How cool is this!

Went to Maastricht last weekend with my parents and a friend of them.
Really enjoyed myself. Had my camera with me and me and my mom discovered a cool graffiti wall!! It was sooooooooo cool!!
I'm normally not using any actions and stuff like that in Photoshop to get my photos better, but look at this!

First is the original photo...


And here we have the one using the action...


Now how cool is that! Specially love the green.
Guess I will be using actions a bit more, specially with the photos I took of the wall...
What do you think??

Wanted: STAMPS!!

Loads of people ask me where I get those cute stamps from (see this, this and this post).
They're Nutshells stamps and you can get them at Nutcrafters! You can get acrylic and unmounted stamps.
So hurry!!!

The mailman just brought...

THIS!!!
I just looooooooooooooooove the dew drops/baubles!! Perfect for the finishing touch on cards and layouts!
So I just ordered some more about 2 weeks ago with some awesome CC Design stamps... Can't have too many stamps, now can I?? *lol*

Here's my entry for this weeks Stamping411 challenge...

layouts

Have been "creative" for a few weeks right now and like to show you some more I made...
This time it's layout time.

First we have a layout of the London Eye... wowie.... wanna go back there as soon as possible! Love London so much!!

I'm not that satisfied about this one, but I set myself a challenge to only use blue for this layout (and white cardstock).
And that's where this little problem came.... I hardly have any blue paper! Came to the conclusion I mostly have the more natural colours and girly colours *lol*
I must admit I have some blue papers, but they are winterpapers...
This blue paper of KI Memories has been here for a few years and finally used it.

Cardstock: Bazzill; Patterned paper: KI Memories; Ribbon: SU; Buttons: own stash; Cotton Cord: Rayher; Thread: own stash

Here's a layout I made with a weddingphoto I made during a photoshoot at a friend's wedding a few years back. I've learned so much that shoot and enjoyed myself very much.
Here's a detail with the flowers and bling-bling...


Here's the layout in totall (sorry, but blurred the bride's face for privacy...)

Cardstock: Bazzill; Patterned paper: Basic Grey; Flowers and bling-bling: Prima; Brads: own stash; Chipboard letters: American Crafts; Ink: Colorbox
