Online crop

Tonight I'm participating in an online crop at Tessa's and I must say I love being creative again. Haven't done it since I left Holland for my holidays last week, so it's pretty fun.
Will upload the layout when I'm finished, so that's tomorrow when I have better lights to make a photo as it's quite dark right now :(

So what have you been up to???

Nieuwe workshop 22 augustus

Hi ladies,

Op vrijdagavond 22 augustus geef ik een leuke workshop "Create"-hanger met het superleuke papier en chipboard van Kelly Penacci.

Het wordt erg gezellig.

Er is plaats voor 7 personen, vol=vol!

Enneh... dit wordt het...

Stuur Tessa even een mailtje via: info@tessategendraads.nl of bel even op: 0168 484101 / 0162 438808

Ik hoop jullie te mogen begroeten :)

Paris!!

Finally an update :)

Been on holiday for a couple of days to a friend of mine in France and I so loved it!!!
Had to travel to Paris first, stayed 3 days with my friend (and for 1,5 day it rained!! Can you believe it??) and went back to Paris again and stayed there 2 hours before my train left. Went to Sacre Coeur, so I had a marvelous view of Paris and saw all the famous attractions like Eiffeltower, Notre Dame, Centre Pompidou and Arc Triomphe. I so loved it and wish I could stay 1 or 2 days longer in Paris to shop and being a tourist, but I loved it!!!!
Here are some photos I took...

Thanks for watching my blog :)

Made another card with the same sketch as seen at the post below this one...

But I made one more card by the following sketch.

I love that sketch, turned it a bit (as I wanted to use my Magnolia-stamps from the kits) and this card is the result...

I wanna give big thumbs up for Katharina, as her shop just launched!! Already love the new stamps...

Check out Whiff of Joy.

Finally

To my humble opinion, I made too many cards lately, so I thought I had to make another layout.

I just love these photos of Jet, one of my cats.

She became such a beautifull cat with her own little habits... I love her!!!

Used some Basic Grey paper... love this line!!

Workshop

I rarely go to any workshops the last 2 years, an exception made for Scrap-a-Ganza, but yesterday I went to Tessa with my mother for an alcoholink-workshop.

Made a very nice card (a great addition to my Vienna-album), a teacupholder and a tag.

My mother really enjoyed herself as she has never worked with alcoholink before, so everything was new for her.

Love the copper and silver finishing touches a lot!! (read: I want it as well!!)

Loved the technique we did on the tag, so I guess I need a new pen for the blending solution as well...hehe...

Bought some more cottoncord (love it!!) and a pencilsharpener.

After the workshop we went to Heesch for the Doll Housemuseum. We didn't know we had to pay money to come in, so we only went to the shop (such beautifull things!!!).

Did enjoy yesterday a lot!

Really enjoying the weather lately!

Have been on my bike quite a few times, been to the beach and tomorrow I will go there as well :)

Well... see ya later!

Great site!

I came across this site about 2,5 weeks ago and really love it!!

You know I love to work with sketches and this site provides cool cardsketches.

So I added a blinkie to my sidebar and watch out for some more.... ;)

Here's my go on Kazan's sketch 5.... It's a 4x4 card.

I will be going to the cinema with my brother this evening if there are tickets left for "The Dark Knight", a sequal for Batman. Hope I will like it, Heath Ledger** is in it, and he's one of my fave actors.
