Something different

Last friday my sister had her bachelor party (although she already got married in December). We followed a jewelry workshop at Soie Belle and afterwards had a drink.  It was a really fun evening and everyone enjoyed themself.  This is the result of my workshop 'emaille'.  For my first attempts, I think they succeeded pretty well :)

My favorite five of 2012 (31/12-06/01)

On the first day of 2013, Debby has a great idea to look at your creations of 2012 and pick 5 favorites.  These are the cards I've selected. Funny to see how the same colour scheme returns on the first 3.

Moving Along With The Times Challenge (till 12/12/2012)

This week's challenge on Moving Along With The Times blog is Clean and Simple. "Clean & simple is a creation with clean lines, lots of open space & a few if any embellishments."  So I think this card fits the theme!



Papertake Weekly Challenge (till 10/12/2012)

Washi tape is quite popular, but I have to confess I never used it before.  This is my first card and I now know why people love it.  It's so easy and cardmaking goes so much faster.  I'll definitely want to buy some other designs. I want to enter this card for the Papertake Weekly challenge: Anything goes.

Totally Tilda Challenge 61 (till 16/12/2012)

This is probably one of my favorite christmas stamps from Magnolia.  I love colouring this image, so I had a little stash and this card was quickly finished :)  I'm entering this card for the Totally Tilda Challenge: Tilda Sitting Pretty. I've only used Basic Grey papers from the Dasher collection and the sentiment is from Marianne Design 'Eline's Vintage Kerst teksten'. 

Oldie but a Goodie Challenge (till 10/12/2012)

I still have to make a couple of christmascards, so I've kept this one simple.  I want to enter it for the Oldie but a Goodie Challenge: Let it Snow.  The hedgehogs on their sledge are an old Penny Black stamp from the set ' Christmas Critters', coloured with pencils.  The sentiment stamp is from Marianne Design 'Eline's Vintage Kerst teksten'.  The patterned paper is from a (cheap) paper pad from Kruidvat and the last supplies I've used are the Spellbinders.

Dutch Magnolia Chickies Challenge 34 (till 14/12/2012)

I can hardly believe it, but cardmaking is going really good this week :) So the challenge on the Dutch Magnolia Chickies was not so difficult: Make a christmascard .  I've used Tilda under Mistletoe (2009) for this one.  I've coloured her earlier this year, but have forgotten to write down the copic numbers.  I've used Dovecraft Christmas Fancy papers, again. These are really my favorites this week :).  The sentiment is from Hero Arts 'Holiday Sayings'. I've created the finishing touches with a Provocraft die Snowflake #2 and Basic Grey rhinestones.
