Christmas 2012 Magnolia Tilda card: Some of my fave things

Hi there and welcome!

Today I like to show you another Christmascard..... Almost there for this year *whoowhoo*, but will be making them all year long as it will get the pressure of a lot for me! :)
It's made with one of my most used Magnolia-stamps. This one is so versatile, using it for both Christmas as birthdaycards. Love it!

Used some of a Authentique paperpad. I totally love red and green, they're my fave colors.
Also used one of my fave ever sentiment stampsets from PTI (oh, I sure do love them!!).

So here it is... a card with a lot of my fave items on it :)

Thank you so much for coming over! Hope to see you again later on :)


Challenges:
- CCWS: Sketch
- One Stop Craft Challenge: Celebrations (I choose Christmas)

Liberation Day in The Netherlands

This is my 2nd post for today
Please scroll down for this month's MCSC-challenge or click here :)

Today, 5th May, it's Liberation Day overhere in The Netherlands.
We celebrate the end of WW2 and celebrating our freedom in every way possible.

And because loads of people gave their life during wars (oh.... I really hate wars!!), I'm now able to craft in freedom and have a pretty lovely life! :)

But today is also the start of another challenge at LIM and also the start of National Scrapbookday.
I made 2 cards :)

The first card is a card I made before, but only with a different color. You can find the other one overhere.

And the 2nd one, made with one of my most-used stampsets at the moment :)

Think the 2nd one also perfectly fits the challenge at MCSC: Nature. Hope you will join in here as well :)


Thanks so much for coming over!
Hope you will celebrate today!


Challenges:
- LIM: Yellow

Birthday Fishes for you

Hi there!

Today I like to show you a card with one of my recently purchased stampsets (2nd hand, but I totally love this set!).
It's got this great sentiments with awesome stamps.

When the newest challenge at CAS-ual Fridays was up, I had no idea which stamps to use (ok, got loads of happy birthday stamps, but wanted to make something I never made before :)), but when I came across my box with recently purchased sets, I just knew I had to use the fish and sentiment from this set :)

So here you have it...

And a detailphoto so you can see I gave 2 birthdayhats some glitter :)

Thank you very much for coming over! Hope to see you again :)


Challenges:
- CAS-ual Fridays: Happy Birthday
- Papertake Weekly: Anything goes

ABC Challenge: O for Orange

Hi there!

We just celebrated Queen's Day overhere yesterday and it was fab! Did facepainting from 6.45 am till about 16.00 and I so enjoyed myself.
But after seeing a lot of orange the last couple of weeks (and still more to come with the European Championship football/soccer and the Olympics), it's a hard time for me as I, well... orange isn't quite my fave color to work with *lol* Really... no other country would be this mad finding all sorts of marketing strategies selling their products in shops. You really should have been here 2 years ago with the World Championship football/soccer. Madness all over the place and every year at Queen's Day, the Dutchies are wearing a lot of orange stuff. The funnier, the better ;)

But well... back to topic :)

Right now I like to show you the ABC Challengecard I made for you. This time we arrived at the "O for orange" challenge.

Used one of my latest bought stampsets and I've already used it a lot, so it's really worth the money for me.

Thanks so much for coming over! I really hope you will visit the other DT-members blog, but also the ABC-Challengeblog, so you can join in! (remember.. orange isn't my fave color as well, so you really should try ;))

Hope to see you again soon!

Magnolia fairy Tilda 2012

Hi there and happy Sunday!

Only 1 more sleep till Queen's Day and they predict some very great weather with loads of sunshine *whoowhoo!*
Really can't wait till tomorrow, always love that day when everyone seems to be happy, selling loads of stuff (or garbage as I sometimes think *lol*).
I will be there as well, only not selling stuff, but facepainting. Really love doing that as well in my free time and at work.

Anyways... want to show you a card I made with items I bought at the AS-event earlier this month.
Really love this stamp and it was sold out within an hour!!
There were also 2 other people at a booth buying the same paper, and they challenged me to use it, so here it is.

A detailphoto... I really love the way I colored Tilda :)

Thanks so much for coming over! Hope to see you again later on :)

CAS: Dashing through the snow

Hi there and welcome Wednesday! :)

Today I like to show you a Christmascard. As you might now (if you're a regular visitor), I like to make Christmascards all year long, so there isn't too much stress at the end of the year.
So here's another Christmascard, made a few weeks ago. Made with stamps and dies I bought from someone who already had them *lucky me!*
Really like the vintage-feel of the items :)

The stickles had to dry, but I was too anxious taking a photo ;)

Thank you very much for coming over and hope to see you later!
