Coloring Challenge

Today I like to show you a card I made for the "Daily Marker 30 day coloring challenge".



Before I explane what I did and what I used, I like to tell this card is for my mother. She will reach the respectable age of 80 years at the beginning of May.
First I stamped the "Large Flower" CG134,  by Hero Arts on white paper. Than stamped the 8 and the 0 over it. CL042 and CL034. Colored it with Copic Markers and cut it out.
The flower is called " Loving Lily" and is is by Impression Obsession. The reason why I chose this flower is because Kathy showed how to color a Lily flower on the first day of the challenge.
I glued a feather and ribbon behind it, and two swirls. Cut with a die cut by MFT and cut from rosé gold cardstock.
I have to save for a while. And I hope she likes it.

Ranger products

Hello, spring is just around the corner, and I am ready for it! We got some sunshine today and I was outside and enjoyed it!



Here is a tag I made for the Simon Days Stamp wednesday challenge: "Tag you're it". The ladies of the design team were using Ranger products. And so did I, as you can see here.








As you can see I used Shabby Shutters DistressInk and than there are Ranger Clear Embossing Powder used for the stamped image in the background. Stickles with the name Crystal, its on the word Spring. And Studio multi- medium matte to glue my flowers on the tag. Besides that I used my Cricut to cut the word Spring and the swirl. And oh yes, for the flowers too. They have little round golden stickers as flower hearts. The stamp you see in the background is by Magenta. I think thats it.Thank you for visiting! Much appreciated!

Ombre background

A while ago I watched a video of Jennifer McGuire where she made beautiful ombre backgrounds for her cards. She also used die cut sentiments wich go in the same flow with the ombre backgrounds: gorgeous results! Here you can find her blogpost:

It invited me so, to follow her examples!
Here is one of the cards I made.


Used a Hero Arts background. And a Simon Says Stamp die cut sentiment.

Happy Valentines Day!

For Valentines day I made a card with read, hearts and silver.


For the arrow I used my Cricut machine, and for the tag on the card I used my mini Minc machine. The little silver hearts are cut with a SSS die.
The sentiment is Hero Arts.
Hope everyone have a good Valentines Day.
"Love from our home to yours!".

New Year, Fresh Start

Happy New Year! 2017, a new year, a fresh new start. Hope it will bring the wishes of your heart. Last week we got some foggy weather and temps below zero, wich gives awesome pictures.





These photo's are taken not far from were I live. Our village is surrounded by meadows, and it is great to go out for a walk. Thats what we did on that particular day. I felt inspired by what I saw. At home I tried to translate what I saw on paper, using stamps and ink.


Here is another photo of that day. Hope you see what I meant by translate it to paper.


The stamps I used are Impression Obsession: F16235 Berry Stem. And two stamps from Magenta: M0732 and L0693. Inks from Colorbox and Versa Magic and some embossing to get that frosty look. And a white gel pen.
Thanks for visiting! Always much appreciated!!!
