Teddy Stampers Challenge: Pink-Brown-White

Hi there and welcome to a new Teddy Stampers' Challenge. This time the theme is "pink, brown, white", so we'd really like to see creations with these colors AND teddybears :)

Bought this stamp a couple of weeks ago (yes, i do buy the stamps instead of buying stamped images.. people ask me all the time... Just out of RESPECT to the stamppeople who make them and design them). If you want more infor about this, please go to this page:

Anyways... we're here for the Teddy Stampers Challenge and here's the card I made:


And a detailphoto where you can see I used loads of glitter :)

MEGA Valentine's Blog Hop: Magnolia Style :)

Hi there and welcome to a MEGA Valentine's Blog Hop my friend Taylor has organized. OMG!! This sure is amazing!! We have loads of prizes to give away during the hop, so I'm sooooooo happy you're here to visit and hop along.

Hi en welkom bij een MEGA Valentijns Bloghop die mijn vriendin Taylor heeft georganiseerd. OMG!! Het is werkelijk fantastisch!! We hebben geweldige prijzen om tijdens de hop uit te delen, dus ik ben erg blij dat je hier bent gekomen en om mee te hoppen :)


If it's correct, you've came here after visiting Amber's blog. If not, please start at the beginning, at Taylor's blog so you don't miss out on all the fun, but most importantly all the lovely projects the other hoppers have made :)

Als het goed is, kom je hier nadat je Amber's blog hebt bekeken. Is dat niet het geval, start dan bij het begin, Taylor's blog, zodat je niets van alle gezelligheid, maar bovenal de geweldige projecten van de andere hoppers zult missen :)


For this hop I've made a Magnolia home-decor wallhanging and I knew exactly what I wanted to make when I bought this last month. It only needed a couple of Magnolia stamps, some punches, some metallic letters (which I have for ages right now *lol*), flowers and glitter.

Voor deze hop heb ik een Magnolia home-decorproject gemaakt en ik wist precies wat ik wilde maken toen ik "dit stuk hout" afgelopen maand gekocht had. Het had alleen een paar Magnolia-stempels, wat punches, wat metallic letters (die ik echt al eeuwen heb *lol*), bloemen en glitter.

Anyways... here's my project:

Maar goed, hier is mijn project:


And some detailphotos:
