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

Meet Singing Al!

Meet Singing Al, a stamp created by Nutshells!
I just love this stamp and thought it would suit the paper perfectly with the skulls!


It's one of the new stamps Nutshells will be releasing on 6th July!
So you all have to wait a bit, but it's worth waiting, I can tell you! :)

Coloured him with my Copics and man... do I really need to learn much about Copics! Specially making highlights.
But it's getting better each time
, so I'm improving myself (but not too fast in my opinion ;))


Stamp: Nutshells (Singing Al); Cardstock: Bazzill; Patterned paper: Junkitz; Pens: Copics & Zig; Ink: StazOn; Stickles: Ranger


Thanks for watching again!! :)

coming with an update tomorrow...

Did manage to scrap a lot and make some cards the last days **yahoo**
And tomorrow will not be any exception ;)
So please be patient and you will get some more regular updates from me the coming days. Have to make some photos of the things I made and I'm full with ideas to make!
Just love that!

I'm also enjoying the fine weather and it's going to be warmer and warmer the coming days **yahoo as well**
Summer has finally arrived!! Now the sea only has to warm a bit, so I can go to the beach and swim (love doing that!!). The beach is only a 15 min. bikeride away, so very, very nice, specially as it's Scheveningen (very famous) where they sell some yummy, yummy icecream!!

Will have breakfast at my balcony tomorrow (the sun is there from about 8 am till about 4 pm), I so enjoy doing that!

Anyways...gotta go to sleep...
