This is my village, seen from the river Lek, from a ferry.

Made this card with a photo I made myself, in our little forest called "Loetbos". And in the background the stamp by Hero Arts called Maple Leaf. First stamped it with Versamark and than brushed Perfect Pearls over it.

Thanks for watching!

This just makes me happy. Love the colors and the warmth of it.

This is a card I finished yesterday, using Hero Art stamps for the flowers and the butterflies and an Impression Obsession stamp for the leaves. In the background is a church song. I printed it and sponged it with colorbox Ink. Thanks for your visit!

I went across the river "Lek" last week to visit the school of my daughter. We live in Lekkerkerk , wich is situated along this river. This is what I saw on the left before I got on the boat. This is the boat wich I had to take to come across. Yes, it's small, it's only for bikes.

This is the boat for cars.

This is what I saw on the right when I was at the middle of the river. The city in the distance is Rotterdam and the bridge with the bows is the "Van Brienenoordbrug".

Some people enjoyed a day on the water.

For me it was like a day out, but my daughter does this every day, in sunshine, in rain, in daylight and in the dark when its winter.....I admire her because she managed so far!

Hope you enjoyed seeing some more of where I live!

Promissed last week to show you some more of Zuid Limburg. So here it is.

Found a beautiful "klaproos"(dutch)

Some sheep resting after lunch!

The river "Geul", and a bridge over this river.

Hope you enjoyed seeing something of my country!

This is one of my new Autumn cards. I had a lot of fun making the background with the masking technique. And I love these pumpkin stamps by Hero Arts. I discovered a way of coloring these pumpkins wich is very easy to do. I used some light orange colored cardstock to stamp the pumpkins on and than add some shading with a little sponge and Color Box Ink. For the little leaves I started with light green colored cardstock and also add some shading with sponge and ink.
For the vines I used a very thin metal thread and than covered it with floral tape in a braun color. Hope you like it!
