DWYT Sketch #95

Hi there!

It's another Thursday, 00:00 am CET, time for another DWYT-sketch *whoowhoo!!*

And this is the card I made:

It's quite a CAS sketch this week and really loved this one! :)

Thank you very much for coming over.
Please visit the DWYT-blog, so you can see the cards the other members have made and you are more than happy to play along with us :)

See you later!

Guess what I will (hopefully) be doing tonight???

Whoooooooowhooooooooooooo....

This is just soooooooooooooo off topic what I normally post, but tonight is finally the night I've been waiting for since 16 years!
I will be seeing Take That in concert. Not just a concert, but finally, after 16 years... I will see them all together again: Robbie Williams (think he's the biggest entertainer and singer), Mark Owen (he's sooo cute *whoops... did I just say that??*), Gary Barlow (great songwriter), Howard Donald and Jason Orange (both great dancers).
Oh my oh my oh my.... whoowhoooooooooooo..

Saw them 3 years ago as a foursome (actually threesome as Howard was ill, but the others did the show) and have been to Robbie's concerts loads of times (playing in little places with just 750 people to places with over 60.000 people). So this would be sooooooo great to see them all together again and sing along with all those amazing songs :)

I will be there with my brother. Very special as he's really not into them, but he said to me he knows all their lyrics because of me *hehehe*

I will defenately be enjoying myself.


Relight my fire.... whoowhoooooooooooooooooo.... Shine.... lalalallalalaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

So I sceduled this post and I will be on my way to the Amsterdam Arena.
I sooooooooo hope this concert will go on, as their concert was cancelled last Saturday because Rob has a food poisoning :(
Seriously... I want him to become better first, before hitting the stage (though I must admit I really, really don't like it...). But we'll just have to wait and see :)


Will keep you updated :) Off to (hopefully) an awesome party :)

DWYT Sketch #94

Hi and welcome!

It's Thursday, 00:00 am CET, so time for another DWYT-sketch :)
It's sketch #94, so we're counting down till #100!

This week's sketch is made by Annemieke and I loved this one!
So here you have my card. I know it's just July to show a Christmascard, but you can't start early enough :)

And a detailphoto so you can see the embossing and glitter a bit better :)

Please visit the DWYT-blog for the other cards the DT-members have made and I'd love to invite you to play along :)

Thanks for coming over and see you later!

GDT Scrapdelight Magnolia Sweet Rainbow card

Hi en welkom!

Today I like to show you a card I made for Scrapdelight, the scrapshop I love the most. Sorry the text is Dutch...

Vandaag heb ik een kaartje te laten zien wat ik voor Scrapdelight heb mogen maken :)
Zoals jullie wellicht weten, ben ik absoluut geen "bling- en sieradentype", mensen die mij ooit gezien hebben zullen mij zelden met sieraden hebben gezien, maar op de één of andere manier komt er toch altijd wat "bling" op m'n projecten terecht, zo ook hier...

En wat detailfoto's:

Even wat info over het kaartje:
Het is een 6x6 inch kaart geworden, omdat ik het label waarop ik Tilda gestempeld heb net wat beter vond uitkomen.
Ik heb gebruik gemaakt van een Magnoliastempel uit de "Sweet Rainbow"-serie.
Uiteraard heb ik Tilda met Copics ingekleurd. Echter, haar pakje heb ik met behulp van paperpiecing gemaakt.

*tip* Paperpiecing: Even Tilda een keer stempelen op patterned paper en dan uitknippen en op de andere Tilda plakken.

Het label waarop Tilda met Memento-inkt is gestempeld, is van Spellbinders Labels 17.
Het papier is van Basic Grey en heb daar de "Hello Lucious" 6x6 paperpad van gebruikt, omdat die altijd de ideale papiertjes voor kaarten bevatten. De grotere vellen hebben ook direct grotere patronen erop.
Het roze papier wat achter de label met Tilda zit, is met een randpons van EK Success geponst.
De bloemen zijn gemaakt met behulp van de BigShot en de Tim Holtz "Tattered Florals" stans. De brads die ik er doorheen heb gebruikt, zijn ook van de "Hello Lucious"-serie van BasicGrey.
De bling die op de hoelahoep, Tilda's broekspijpen en Tilda's elastieken zijn te vinden is van Ranger: Stickles Diamond (ik kan niet zonder!).
De bling die op de kaart zit, is een swirls van Prima. Heb dit ooit bij Scrapdelight gekocht.

*tip* Omdat ik één zo'n swirl veel te groot vind op een kaart, knip ik deze altijd in stukjes. Op die manier kun je een swirl op meer dan één kaart gebruiken.

Het tekststempeltje is er één uit eigen collectie en het geweldige stuk groene kant heb ik bij Scrapdelight in de winkel in Nieuwegein gekocht, maar kun je ook hier online krijgen :)


Dit kaartje kun je vanaf nu ook op het blog van Scrapdelight zien *whoowhoo!*
Bedankt voor het langskomen en graag tot een volgende keer :)

BasicGrey Challenges: Doilies and ribbon

Hi there and welcome!

Have you read my last post?? :) I'm still jumping up and down, so happy!!
Anyways... it's time for another BasicGrey Challenge, this time: Doilies and Ribbon.
Doilies are the "latest thing" in the cardmaking world and I have to say I just don't really like them, so this was a challenge for me ;)
Got a "cheap" doily from one of my familymembers, so THANK YOU!!
So it was a challenge...

But working with ribbon... I can't live without it! I just loooooooooooooove it!

So here you have my card with something I probably will not use again and something I use all the time:

And a detailphoto:



So... please let me know what you think about me working with doilies *I promise I won't bite!* ;)

Thank you very much for coming over, but don't forget to see what the other DT-members have created at the BasicGrey Challenges blog. And I would like to invite you to play along!

See you later!

Guest Designer July Scrapdelight :)

Hi there!!

Hi!
Wow... wat een geweldig nieuws heb ik jullie te vertellen!
Ik weet het al een aantal weken, maar nu is het tijd om te vertellen dat ik gevraagd ben om guestdesigner in juli te zijn bij Scrapdelight, mijn favo scrapwinkel!!
Ben er erg trots op dat ik door Michelle en haar team gevraagd ben en ik hoop dat ik jullie met wat creativiteit kan voeden ;)
 Wow... what a great news I have for you I really have to share with you!
I already know it for a few weeks now, but now it's time to reveal that I was asked to be a guestdesigner in July for Scrapdelight, a Dutch scrapbookshop, my fave one!!
It's such a great honour to be asked by Michelle and her team and I really hope I can inspire you all with some creativity ;)

Gisteren ging een nieuwe cardchallenge online op het Scrapdelight blog. Het is een schets. En je kunt er nog een geweldig leuke prijs mee winnen ook :)
Yesterday, a new cardchallenge went online at the Scrapdelight blog. It's a sketch one:

En dit is wat ik ervan gemaakt heb:
And this is what I made:

Behoorlijk wat bling gebruikt :)
Heb voor deze kaart geweldig Graphic45 papier, ZVA swirls, EK Succes ponsen en wat zwarte inkt gebruikt. Ik vind het papier echt geweldig en zal het ook gaan gebruiken om een aantal foto's van Parijs te scrappen :)
Loads of bling there :)
Made it with some lovely Graphic45 papers, some ZVA swirls, EK Succes punches and some black ink. Just looooooove those papers a lot and am using them to scrap some photos from Paris as well :)

Anyways... tijd om wat verder te slapen (hmm.. eigenlijk is het hier 00.00 am CET en lig ik nog steeds heerlijk te slapen..hehe... heb deze post gepland.. geweldig!)

Anyways... time for me to sleep further (actually it's 00.00 am CET overhere and I'm still in bed sleeping..hehe... just sceduled this post..love it!)

Bedankt voor het langskomen en zie jullie later!
Oh ja... vergeet je niet mee te doen met deze challenge... meer info op het Scrapdelight blog :)

Thank you very much for coming over!! See you all later!

Wags'nWhiskers Challenge: Birthdays

Hi there and welcome to another Wags'nWhiskers challenge.
This time the challenge is: Birthdays!

So there's plenty of creative thinking for this challenge.
I created a card, with one of my fave images of Wags'nWhiskers. Already inked her up a lot and guess I will be doing that for a long time :)

Anyways... back to the challenge.
Normally I use very "feminine" colors like pink (oh, I love using that color!), but this time I challenged myself to use blue (plus my fave color red). Something different, cos not every girl likes pink.

And here's my card:

And a detailphoto where you can see all the glitter I used (seriously, in my daily life I don't wear any jewelry, just don't like it, not the "blingkinda girl", plus I can't work with it):

Thank you very much for coming over.
I'd love you to join me and the other members of the DT for this challenge, there's a prize as well :)

See you later!
