Staralbum

At one of the last days of the old year I visited the Winterefteling with my boyfriend and made a staralbum with the pictures!! Loved to make it and it was really easy, thanks to the tutorial on Royal Lemon.

Jacob's ladder

I made a Jacob's ladder with winter pictures! I am really happy with how it turned out and I will definitely make more! Hmm...just saw pictures aren't really perfect....but well, the idea is clear :).

Blogcandy

Bev, who's in my feedreader already for a while because of her beautiful cards, has a blogcandy to offer!

Friday Sketchers 34

This week I joined Friday Sketchers for the first time....had been planning on doing it before, but had trouble finding time to create within a week.
Yesterday I received a few Sugar Nellie stamps from Funky Kits and I loved the one used on the card so much I immediately attached ez-mount to it and created this card.

Here's the sketch:

And here is my card:



I also entered it for the Valentine Card Contest on Basicgrey.com, where the winner will receive a bittersweet package.

Another blogcandy

And a big one it is! You can find it here on Rach's blog!

She makes really beautiful things, so check out the rest when you go and visit!

Happy New Year and a blogcandy!

First of all, happy 2009 for all of you!


Isn't he cute? :) I already posted and then saw it's saying 2008.....well, just think 2009 :).

Second...Angelique ended the last year very well with starting a blog candy!


At her place I made the Christmas star I showed on my blog earlier! So, go and visit!

A whole bunch of christmas cards

I definitely was inspired yesterday, created 10 cards in a day.....
For most of them I used pagemap sketches. All images are colored with copics and some are paperpieced...


Magnolia stamps (girl and silent night), wassail paper & sultry paper (basic grey), bazzill cardstock, prima flower and a brad.


My minds eye be merry paper and diecut (tree and blue border), hanglar girl, cardstock and a brown pen...


Wassail paper, magnolia stamps (again :)), background and Edwin. Maya Road chipboard stars and brown things.


Magnolia stamps, wassail paper and a paper tree tutorial from here.


And again wassail paper, magnolia stamp, a bow stamp from an unknown brand and some ribbon. I used a woven heart, found the template somewhere on the internet.


Wassail christmas trees...found inspiration for this one on twopeas, in the 36 days of Christmas.


Rachelle Ann Miller stamp, punch, be merry paper, mistletoe and pear paper basic grey, prima flower, ribbon and a brad.


Wassail paper, Maya Road Chipboard


Basic Grey paper: wassail and mistletoe and pear.


And number 10, magnlia stamps, brads and the same paper as the two cards above :).

Three Christmascards

I made three cards last week....right now I am working on a whole bunch more, those will be posted in the next days somewhere.

Star

Two posts in one day! Last saturday I went to a christmas workshop and made three things...the other things will follow later, because I still have to finish them (read: add photo's etc.).
This one I finished today and I am really happy with how it turned out! It's a decorated wooden star.



The little figures are from Dille & Kamille, a store here in Holland. I also used thickers, stickles, maya road chipboard and a christmas tree branch garland (don't know how to call it ;)) and some holly, buttons and of course paper. I don't know the brand though....

Christmas Decoration

My christmas decoration is already done for a week...but haven't been able to take pictures up until yesterday. I leave early morning to go to university or work and return late afternoon...both times of the day its already dark. This year I didn't feel like putting up a tree...but did some other things.
A few pictures of part of the decoration:

My fireplace:
Close-up garland (made from the idea and description on the Royal Lemon forum!)

Hanging on the garland:

A tutorial for this birdhouse you can find here at Nichole Heady's blog!



And this centerpiece is made with this description (and part of part two).
