Under the sea...

For the Simon Says Wednesday challenge of this week anything goes. This is a good thing because I had an idea for a previous challenge but I didn't have time to finish the card in time.

 

This is my creation!

 

I was almost late again but here it is, just in time :)

 

 

The sentiment says Happy Birthday in Dutch.

Silver snowman...

The 110th challenge by the Sketch N Scrap is a sketch challenge.

 

I was inspired by the snowman and remembered that I have some snowman stickers. So this is what I came up with.

 

 

I used some patterned paper with glitter effect and I also used some silver glitter tape and paper.

 

 

To finish off my card I used some silver snowflake stickers that coordinate with the snowman.

Voor de 2 Sisters on the blog challenge #9 moest je een beterschaps- of get well soon kaart maken.

 

Dit is wat ik gecreëerd heb!

 

An apple a day keeps the doctor away! Een heel gezond kaartje dus...

 

 

Ik gebruikte wat washi tape en bakkerstouw om het kaartje aftewerken.

 

 

Voor wat meer dimensie heb ik het middelste paneel en de boodschap met foam tape bevestigd.

Cute Little Tags...

For the Incy Wincy Designs Challenge of this week you had to create anything but a card. I choose to make some cute little tags. The tags are about 1.5 inch or 4 cm small.

 

 

I used a ornament die to cut some metallic cardstock and added a cute small wood embellishment on top. I used some natural twine to make a string to hang the tags to the presents and also added a cute little bow.

 

 

For the backs of the tags I layered two pieces of craft paper to make it a little sturdier. I stamped two doted lines and written To and From on the inside.

New House...

For the Catch the Bug November theme challenge the theme is Home Sweet Home. So you have to create a project featuring a house or the word Home.

 

This is what I came up with.

 

 

I used some patterned papers from my stash. The paper with the keys and the words 'Nieuwe Woning' which basically means 'New House' in Dutch.

 

I used some die cut keys for some added interest. I've chosen a craft cardbase because moving mean lost of boxes. This is also why I've chosen the FRAGILE paper.

Teal Feathers...

For the Just Us Girls Challenge #419 you had to use a trend. The trend is silhouette stamping.

 

This is what I came up with.

 

 

I used some feather stamps and stamped them in some teal pigment ink.

 

 

For some added bling I added some rhinestones and some metallic tape.

 

 

As a background I used some cute teal striped paper. For some dimension I used some foam tape to pop up the stamped panel.

A Golden Thank You...

For the Simon Says Stamp blog Monday challenge you had to make a card or something else with thanks/thanksgiving as a theme.

I made a thank you card for someone with a golden heart.

 

 

I used some craft cardstock for my cardbase. The polka dot patterned paper is handmade from 100% recycled cotton and is super soft.

 

 

To attach my thank you vellum piece to my background I used some golden brads.

It's really hard to catch the beautiful golden accents in a picture but in real life its gorgeous.

Beary Christmas...

For the Sketch N Scrap Card Sketch #109 you had to follow the following sketch. I really like doing these sketches they make my creativity flow :)

 

 

The cute bear is from a DécoTime 3D die-cut images bloc but I only used one layer. I also used some glitter paper and some Basic pastels patterned paper from Craft Sensations.

 

And this is what I came up with.

 

 

I popped up the glitter paper and the cute bear with some foam tape for some added dimension.

 

 

The small sentiment is also from the DécoTime 3D die-cut images.

 

 

I love all the glitters in this card but its really hard to catch the full effect in a picture.

You're my favorite gift...

The Simon Says Wednesday challenge  for this week was to make a Christmas Gift Tag!

I started by looking trough my Christmas crafting stash and I found a small set of things that coordinated with each other.

 

To make my tag a little more festive I've chosen a fun foiled craft background paper.

 

 

And this is what I came up with.

 

 

I popped up the little fox with one layer of foam squares and the sentiment with two layers.

 

 

To finish of my tag I used some bakers twine, some fine silver threat, a small tag and a cute little wood veneer.

 

 

Here are some close ups of the tag so you can see all the details.

 

 

For more inspiration take a look at the Simon Says Wednesday challenge blog!

Fancy Paris girl...

For the Incy Wincy Design Challenge we had to play Dress Up! You had to share a creation with an image wearing a special costume (for instance a Halloween costume). Or you had to use an image wearing formal clothes like a wedding gown. Or you had to use an image who is trying to be glamorous and fancy! 

I don't have any Halloween stamps or a stamp with formal clothes so I used a beautiful girl that is taking her selfie in glamorous Paris.

 

I used some stamps from Craft Sensations. You can see both sets in the picture below. I used some Momento Tuxedo Black to stamp everything and colored everything in with some alcohol markers. For a list of the makers I used just scroll down to the end of this post.

 

 

For my cardbase and to stamp on I used some white paper from Crafters College. As the background patterned paper I used a 6 by 6 inch blok from a store called Zeeman.

 

 

I popped up the white panel and the girl with some foam tape for some more dimension.

 

 

Hope you like my creation! If you have any questions just leave a comment down below!

You are loved...

For the World Card Making Day sketch #2 from Sketch N Scrap you have to make a card with the following sketch.

 

I immediately thought of a rubbery lace that I have. I have build the rest of my card around this lace. I found two delicate watercolor patterned papers that complement the lace beautifully.

 

 

Out of one of the patterned papers I have fussy cut one of the flowers to pop up as an accent.

 

 

I printed the sentiment on a pink paper and used some orange paper to make a stitched border.

 

 

I used some vellum to back the lace so that it stands out a little better from the background.

 

Hope you like my creation! If you have any question just leave a comment down below.

Happy Halloween Family...

For The Crazy Challenge #259 you had to make a Halloween card. At first I didn't know how to start because Halloween isn't really celebrated here in Belgium but its getting bigger and bigger every year :). In school for the little ones there is usually a costume party!

I found these cool stickers at Lidl (a grocery store) they had some fun dimension and I loved them.

 

 

I used some patterned paper from the Craft Unlimited 4 Seasons paper pack. The small black strip is glossy and is actually part of the packaging of the stickers.

 

The sentiment I printed on some orange cardstock from my stash. The font is called October Crow. If you like the font you can download it here.

 

I distressed the edges of my patterned paper with some Momento Grape Jelly. I don't have a fancy blending tool so I just used a cotton pad.

 

Hope you like my creation! If you have any questions just leave a comment down below.
