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! :)


Challenges:
- Without Words: Whizz Bang (Bright colors)

Kerstkaarten workshops

*Please scroll down for the tag I made*

*THIS POST WILL BE IN DUTCH*


Hi allemaal,

Ook dit jaar zal ik weer kerstkaartenworkshops bij mij thuis geven na het succes van de afgelopen jaren.
De bedoeling is dat we 4 kerstkaarten zullen maken. 3 in de zogeheten CAS-stijl en de 4e kaart zullen we uitgebreider bekleden en het stempelafdrukje zal worden ingekleurd met de Spectrum Noir markers.

Data: 8, 9, 15 en 16 december

Locatie: Den Haag (uitstekend bereikbaar per OV!! Ik woon echter op de eerste etage, zonder lift)

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 :)

- ABC Challenges: A for Appreciation

Basic Grey Challenge: Anything goes

Hi there and welcome to another BasicGrey challenge!

Unfortunately this will be my last one as well.
It's with pain in my heart doing it, but it's the right thing at this point.

This fortnight's challenge is "Anything goes", so I created a Halloween card. I just loooooove the combination of green, orange, purple and black!

Colored the image with my Spectrum Noir markers and am sooooo extremely happy with them and their storage!
Had a week off work and sometimes I just sat down looking at all those markers, lovely organized by color *lol*
It really made me happy :)

Anyways... back to my card for the BasicGrey challenge....




And a detailphoto where you can see the glitter I put on Tilda's hair and panty ;)





So... from this place in cyberspace I really want to thank all my teamies at the BasicGrey Challenges!!

Last Tomic Challenge :(

Hi there!

Right now it's a really sad time, as within a few minutes time the TOMIC Challengeblog will close down :(
Remembers me of February 1996... "And from today... there's no more"...

So sad, but I did try to make a last card for this challenge, a Halloweenone.
Totally love this one!

Off course I colored the image with my Spectrum Noir markers and wow... I totally love their newest storing system! You really should see and have it!!

Anyways...back to topic... here's my card:



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



Challenges:
TomicHalloween + bat + purple/orange/black


ABC Challenge: Z for Zoo

Hi there and welcome to another ABC Challengeblog challenge!

This time we're at the end of the alphabet, the Z for Zoo.

Made this card for my stash as I've got some people to send birthcards to and there are also people buying my cards, so I really need some when needed :)

Anyways... back to the card... kept it really CAS, but I sooooooooo love this one :)





With this card ending the alphabet, I'm also ending my DT-membership for this challengeblog.
All good things come to an end and I really enjoyed being a part of this fantastic team, but I've decided to step down.
It was a hard decision to make, but I know it's the right decision.
But I will defenately be around the ABC Challengeblog, as I always have loved the challenges and they kept me inspired in all kinda ways.

A big thank you to all my teammates!


 **HUGS**


And have you seen the DT-call that's up at the moment?? Go check out the ABC Challengeblog for more info and maybe it's you who will be a DT-member :)

Thank you so much for coming over and hope to see you around later on.

Spectrum Noir tag and great news!!

Hi there!

Today I like to show you a tag I made recently for the Spectrum Noir blog.
You can work with the Speccies so easily in combination with your stencils!


So here's what I made, you can see the step-by-step instructions on the Spectrum Noir blog:

Vandaag wil ik jullie een tag laten zien die ik voor het Spectrum Noir blog gemaakt heb.
Je kunt namelijk supergoed je Speccies combineren met je stencils (en die van mij konden wel een gebruikersbeurt krijgen..haha)
Dit heb ik gemaakt, je kunt de stap-voor-stap uitleg op het Spectrum Noir blog bekijken:




And I told you about some news about storing your Speccies.
Well... about 1,5 week ago I received the best ever storingsystem I've ever seen (and believe me, I've seen a lot) and totally love!
The Spectrum Noir markers have their own storingsystem (which, you can use for other markers as well!!) and I just loooooooooooooooooove it!
It's on my desk and it really works! All numbers on their correct place!
There's a blogspot about it on the Spectrum Noir blog as well from Jennie *Hi Jennie!!*. Stores in The Netherlands will also be selling this system in the future *whoowhoo!*

En ik heb al een tikje van de sluier afgelopen week opgelicht over het geweldige nieuws dat er iets nieuws aankomt voor de Speccies.
Wel... ongeveer 1,5 week geleden, ontving ik het beste opbergsysteem voor markers wat ik ooit gezien heb (en geloof me.. ik heb genoeg gezien!) en vind het dé oplossing voor markers!
De Spectrum Noir markers hebben nu hun eigen opbergsysteem (dat je overigens ook prima voor andere markers etc. kunt gebruiken) en ik ben er helemaal van onder de indruk! Dit is echt zo super opbergen!
Het staat nu op mijn bureau en het werkt echt superhandig. Alle nummers op volgorde, ideaal!
Er is een blogspot te vinden op het Spectrum Noir blog van Jennie *Hi Jennie!!*.
Winkels hier in Nederland zullen dit systeem vast en zeker ook gaan verkopen, want dit is iets waar ik al jaren naar op zoek was *whoowhoo!*
