Jong spul

Een vriendin van me werkt op een kinderboerderij. Ze hebben daar op het moment allemaal jong spul en er moet wel eens een geitje geflest worden. Dus wat doe je dan als de kinderen op school zijn? Dan ga je samen, zonder kinderen:), naar de kinderboerderij om foto's te maken. Zijn ze niet schattig??

 

Met deze foto van vorig jaar heb ik nog deze layout gemaakt. Zelfde vriendin, ander geitje:)

Geslaagd! en Kazan's sketch 23

Gisteren is Lars geslaagd voor zijn typediploma!!!!!!! Eerlijk gezegd had ik het niet verwacht, want hij maakte er echt een potje van en had een blóédhekel aan het oefenen. Maar evengoed heeft hij het gewoon gehaald! Met een 6 en een 7 en het woordje 'blind' doorgestreept:) Hij keek zoveel op z'n vingers dat ze vonden dat hij niet blind kon typen. Het zal hem worst wezen, hij is er van af :) (en wij ook)

Gisteravond nog even bezig geweest met Kazan's sketch van 2sketches4you. Ik vind dit weer zo'n 'tja.....' kaartje. Soms heb je dat gewoon, dan maak je wat en ondertussen weet je al dat je het eigenlijk niet zo heel bijzonder vind. Dit is er dus zo eentje:)

Card Patterns #7 en Magnolia's

Zo, eerst maar even dit: ik ga toch maar weer gewoon in het Nederlands bloggen:) Mijn engels is niet zo goed dat ik echt alles wat ik wil vertellen ook kan vertalen, dus vandaar! Als er nog iemand een tip heeft voor een goede vertaalmachine op m'n blog, laat het dan even weten!!

Vandaag zou ik eigenlijk Michelle helpen op de beurs in Rijswijk, maar helaas.....Ik was nog geen 20km van huis en er begon iets te piepen en het lampje van de accu ging knipperen. Gelukkig was ik vlakbij een tankstation, dus daar vandaan Douwe (uit bed) gebeld. Die kwam met een bus van de zaak om achter me aan naar huis te rijden, voor het geval de auto helemaal niks meer zou doen. Ondertussen had ik Michelle gebeld en die kon gelukkig snel vervanging vinden. Zo zat ik dus ongepland een dagje thuis:) Maandag moet de auto naar de garage en tja, ik denk dat er dan voorlopig niet zo veel scrapspullen gekocht gaan worden.......

Ik heb mezelf maar nuttig gemaakt vandaag en weer eens wat Magnolia's gekleurd. Dat was alweer een hele tijd geleden en er lagen ook nog wat restjes BG papier. Die heb ik dus maar gecombineerd en dit zijn ze geworden. Lekker voorraadje weer!


De sketch van Card Patterns stond ook lekker op tijd op de site, dus die heb ik ook nog even gemaakt. Van dezelfde restjes en ook behoorlijk in de zelfde stijl:)

Spring wreath

I'm not a yellow kind of person! I don't use it if it isn't necessary and most of all I don't wear it!!!! In my house is not a yellow thing and then it is springtime...I went through my stash of flowers and all kinds of yellow are there...Probably because I never use them:)So, for the first time there is someting yellow in my house (and I like it!!!!!!)

Use it #3 and Laura's sketch #22

For the Use it challenge I desided to make something different than a card. This morning I went to a friend and it's always fun to take something with you:) So I made this little candybag. You can find the polkadots in the paper, the eyelets are easy too and I used some MM rub-ons. Those rub-ons are there for over 2 years...I guess you all know how it works with those alphabets, when the E's are gone and the A's too, then you use them less and they end up behind a lot of stuff.....But lucky me, there where some U's and a lot of 4's:)



And then ofcourse Laura's sketch:)
I made a clear card for a little boy. It's a simple one, but I like it :)

Card Patterns 7 and a cute cow:)

Here's a Card Pattern card again. I really love the sketch this time and I had so much fun making this card! The two little girls on the picture are adorable:)



And then there is this cute little cow! My daughter Ylona draw this one and it thought it was so cute that I asked her to make a small one that I can use on a card! I'm really proud of her!!!!

Paris and Memories

I found this layout that I did not share....I had to say that I am very satisfied with this one!!! :)



And then I made this one. A friend asked me if I want to make a layout about her parents weddingpicture. Her father pased away for several years and she wants to give this to her mom. It's a little bit difficult for me to make a layout for older people...Not to many colors, not to many embellishments....But ok, this paper from Fiskars was perfect for this picture!!!

Use it 2 and Kazan's sketch 22

Here I am again with 2 challenges. How addicted can a person be???:)

This one is based on a challenge from Use it challenges, this time hosted bij Danni Reid.
The challenge is: use spring colors, at least 4 flowers and a tag. I guess it doesn't need any explanation...And how can you make a challenge, hosted by Danni and not using your Swiss Dot :) Well, here is mine....


The second one is based on Kazan's sketch. It's not what I want it to be, but sorry Kazan, the sketch doesn't suit me this time....

Fab 5!, Card Patterns 6 and a heart

I just find out I'm in the fab 5 of 2sketches4you!!! It's always fun to see your name up there:)

Yesterday I made this card based on the sketch of Card Patterns. It turned out a little bit vintage...

And then there was this heart...
It was hanging in our livingroom for a couple of months and excually it was a bit boring...So I decided to pimp it up a bit :) This is how it looks now!!!

Use it....and some cameo's

I don't know where all the owners get there inspiration from, but there's another challengeblog called 'Use it challenges'. Ofcourse I can't stand a challenge:)
The challenge was to use some of your favorite paper, something you have never used before, some ribbon and some buttons. Well, here's my card....... I used pink paper that I often use for little girl cards. The ribbon is never used before, because I'm not really into printed ribbon, but this one was a gift...(so that's one ribbon for 2 items:)) and my button is in the flower. I didn't know if I was allowed to use some thickers, but I have to make a name.....

There was I time I regret that I changed my Cricut into a Silhouette....That was till I made these cameo cards!!!! It was so easy to make and I really like how they turned out!!!!

Laura's sketch 21, Dawne's bonus and a boy-card

Yesterday I posted a message that I probably have a scrappersblock, 'cause it took me a long time to finish some cards. Well, when I saw the sketches on 2sketches4you, I was finished within an hour! How strange can it be:) Ok, I had to admit that the cards are very clean and simple, but whatever! :)

Laura's sketch:

Dawne's sketch
For both these cards I used the new gorgeous papers of PebblesInc.

We also get a birthcard and I made this card inspired by Ingrid.

Card Patterns 5

I love sketches for cards, but sometimes it's maybe a little too much....I'm not really satisfied about my cards these days...Would it be because I 'have' to do them or can I call it a scrappersblock? I really don't know.

I went to Michelle last Saturday for a DT-meeting and it was so much fun to see the girls again! I even get a Christmas present from Morag :) I hadn't seen her a long time and she kept it all the time! Thanks again Morag!!! I also came home with the cute little stamp that I used on the card, based on the sketch of CP 5.



I also reseived an award from Karin. Thanks a lot girl!!! I had to pick 10 of my favorite blogs, but it's hard to choose, so this one is for all of you!!!

Special Daughter

I made this layout for my mothers friend. They had a daughter who died 25 years ago at leukeamia. On this picture she was 6 years old and the moment she died she was 12 years. Her name was Marijke. My mom asked me if I can do something with this picture...I had to admit that it was kind of strange, using it. I really hope they like it!!!!

Kazan's sketch 21

And another card based on the sketches of 2sketches4you....I'm not really satisfied, but I can't come up with something else.....(I guess they call it a scrappersblock...)

Card Patterns 4

I had a liitle time this morning, so I used the CP sketch to make an Easter card...I used some BG paper and stickers,a cute ribbon, a stamp and some flowers. Hope you all like it :)
