Kaartenketting Rood en Groen


Hi en welkom!

Hi and welcome... this time the post will bilangual.

Ditmaal heb ik weer een kerstkaartje voor jullie om te laten zien :)
Hiermee doe ik ook mee met de kaartenketting en weet je wie er nog meer mee doen... nou, dat zijn nogal wat personen!

This time I got another Christmascard to share with you :)
I'm also participating with the "kaartenketting/chain of cards" and you know who else will be participating... well... loads of persons are!

Ze hebben iedere maand een kleurenuitdaging en ditmaal zijn het mijn favo kleuren om mee te werken: rood en groen.
En met deze kleuren en deze tijd van het jaar, ontkom je er bijna niet aan om hiermee een kerstkaartje te maken.
Ik ben heerlijk bezig geweest met wat nieuwe spulletjes die ik een paar weken geleden heb mogen ontvangen. Ben er zo blij mee!!
Heb er weer CAS-kaarten van gemaakt, want blijf dat toch wel één van de leukste vormen van kaarten maken vinden.

Every month they have a colorchallenge and this time they're my faves to work with: red and green.
And with these colors and this time of the year, you can't escape from making Christmascards.
I've been playing around with some nice new stuff I received a couple of weeks ago. Am really happy with it!
Made some more CAS-cards with it, as they're one of my fave cards to make.

Dus hierbij dan mijn kaartjes...
And here are my cards...




Hier is de lijst met alle deelnemers van deze uitdaging. Het zijn er heel wat, maar dat maakt het wel zo gezellig en leuk :)
Maak gerust een rondje langs al deze mensen met fantastische uitwerkingen van deze challenge.
And here's the list of all the participating people of this challenge.
There are many, but this will also make it happy and fun :)
Please visit them as they made some lovely cards for this challenge.

Another Christmascard and back from...

Some serious Christmasshopping in London :)

Oh yeah... finally, after 17 years of going to London almost every year, I finally was there just a couple of weeks before Christmas and was able to see all the gorgeous decorations in all the shops, beautifull Christmaslights in the streets and so much more.
Never been there so short before Christmas and wow... finally been there!
A dream came true these last couple of days :)

So... with me being in the Christmasspirit, here's another Christmascard I like to show you.
Made it with my Speccies, aka Spectrum Noir markers.
Very simple, very CAS, but sooooooo love it!
It's a 4x4" card, so very little.
Love the effect of just an image and sentiment stamp. Keep things focussed on it.





Thanks so much for coming over and hope to see you again later on!

Christmas Cards with Spectrum Noirs

Hi all!

Today I like to show you a very, very CAS-card I made recently with my Speccies aka Spectrum Noir markers.

Stamped the image and only used 3 colors to color the image. Couldn't be any simpler ;)



Scored some lines on the bottom of the card for some effect and added some stickles on top of the tree.

Love this card!

Thanks so much for coming over and hope to see you later on! :)

Hi there and welcome to another Christmas Cards {with Sketches}  Challenge.

We're sponsored by Alotta Rubberstamps and we all got a nice image to play with.

But without rambling too much... here's my card:



Off course my image has been colored with the Spectrum Noir markers.
Colors I used are:
Blue: TB1, TB2, TB3
Grey/brown: BG1, BG2, BG3
Carrot: OR1 and BG1

Now it's up to you to play with us.
Just visit the CCWS-blog for more inspiration and hopefully you're able to join us this week.

Thanks so much for coming over and hope to see you around later on!

Spectrum Noir challenge: Flowers

Hi there!


Today I like to show you a card made for the Spectrum Noir challenge: Flowers.
I wanted to keep this card as CAS as possible, by making it a one layer card with some stamps to color on it and think I pretty succeed... I love it!
You can get so much depth by adding an extra dark color to it.



Have you already entered the challenge??
All you have to have on your card are flowers. Stamped or embellishments, but your image has to be colored with the Spectrum Noir markers.

Thanks so much for coming over and hope to see you later on! :)

Tijd: Groep 1: 10.00 - 12.30 en Groep 2: 14.00 - 16.30 (16 december alleen de middaggroep)

Prijs: EUR 15,00 incl. gebruik materialen (uiteraard mag je je eigen gereedschap zoals lijm, snijmat, snijmesje, schaar, etc. meenemen), koffie/thee/fris en iets lekkers erbij.

Er is plek voor 5 personen per groep VOL=VOL


Je kunt je opgeven door een email te sturen naar:
scrapping_angel (at) casema (punt) nl


Kun je nu niet op bovenstaande data, maar je hebt al wel een groepje van 5 personen, dan kunnen we een andere datum plannen. Houdt er echter wel rekening mee dat er parkeerkosten zijn in de wijk waar ik woon tussen 18.00 en 24.00.


Thank you Christmas tag

Hi there,

Today I like to show you a "Thank You" Christmastag.
When I bought the paperpad at a Dutch craftfair I immediately fell in love, but I also had in the back of my mind: "No, no more Christmaspapers this year", but I just couldn't walk by without buying this lovely set.

And yesterday evening I've been extremely creative making loads of stuff which you will see the coming days/weeks.
Haven't been crafty since a few days, totally not in the mood for anything to do with crafting, but my mojo's back :)

Here's today's item...




You can put this label on a bottle of wine etc. Not sure what to do with it right now.

Thank you so much for coming over and hope to see you again later on. Got some news for Dutch people :)
Heb later op de dag wat nieuws voor NL mensen :)
