Vandaag weer een kaartje met een Magnolia die is ingekleurd met de flexmarkers. Ik heb haar uitgestanst met een spellbinder en daarna het randje ook bewerkt met een flexmarker.
Omdat ik op het moment geen eigen kamertje voor mijn spulletjes heb en dus de eettafel gebruik (die dus iedere avond opgeruimd dient te worden) weet ik niet meer welk papier ik heb gebruikt. De randjes van het papier heb ik met de distresser bewerkt.

Verder heb ik 2 lintjes tegen elkaar geplakt en in het midden een kralensnoer verwerkt.

Met kleurloze gloss gel heb ik het hart bewerkt en met de witte (geprobeerd) stipjes te zetten.

Verder bloemen uit mijn voorraad en een ticket die ik eerst gekreukeld heb.

Ik ga nog even kijken of het nog een beetje uit te houden is in de tuin, maar er staat geen zuchtje wind dus ik ben bang dat het erg warm is. Nog even genieten in ieder geval. 

Iedereen een  heel fijn weekend.

Groetjes, Yvon

Baby kaartje

Omdat onze overbuurtjes de trotse papa en mama van een lief, klein, schattig jongetje met heel veel zwart haar zijn geworden heb ik voor hen een kaartje gemaakt.

Het papier dat ik heb gebruikt is van Maja, of was het nou Pion. Maakt niet uit, allebei erg mooi. Verder een spellbinder gebruikt en lintjes gebruikt, ook achter het afdrukje. Het hart van chipboard heb ik bewerkt met crackle-paint van Tim Holz. 

Verder heb ik er nog een grote gardenia op geplakt en een ticket, die ik eerst gekreukt heb. 

Het afdrukje van Magnolia heb ik ingekleurd met de flexmarkers en op de vleugels heb ik stickels verwerkt. 

Heb in de tussentijd nog meer kaartjes gemaakt maar die laat ik de volgende keer weer zien. Ik zou het erg leuk vinden als jullie een berichtje achter zouden laten. Ik ga nu nog even van het mooie weer genieten. 

Tot de volgende keer.

Adore

Hé hé, eindelijk heb ik weer eens tijd om te bloggen.

Het is hier zo vreselijk druk geweest en nog. In onze straat zijn alle huizen gerenoveerd en dat zou een week of 5 gaan duren. Inmiddels zijn we 5 maanden verder en eigenlijk is het nog niet klaar. We hebben inmiddels een nieuwe badkamer, een nieuw toilet, overal nieuwe ramen, nieuwe voor- en achterdeur, de hele buitenboel is geschilderd, een vaste trap naar zolder, die ook is geïsoleerd zodat we daar een nieuwe kamer voor onze dochter van kunnen maken en nog wat kleine aanpassingen. Dit betekend natuurlijk wel dat het hele huis van binnen opnieuw geschilderd moet worden en er een aantal "verhuizingen" gaan plaats vinden. Maar nu even niet!! Ben er helemaal klaar mee. Nu proberen weer eens lekker aan mezelf te denken.

O ja, en onze kleine Diesel heeft in de tussentijd ook nog 5 kittens gebaard. Zoo lief, ze zijn nu 6 weken oud en we hebben de grootste lol met ze. Zal binnenkort een paar foto's plaatsen.

Heb afgelopen week eindelijk weer eens een kaartje kunnen maken, en wat was dat weer heerlijk om te doen.

Het papier dat ik heb gebruikt is van Magnolia en heb ik gemat op craftpapier. En nu eens geen Magnolia-stempel maar eentje van Lily of the Valley, ik heb haar ingekleurd met de Flexmarkers.

Wat mooie bloemetjes uit mijn voorraad.

De houten vlindertjes komen bij de Xenos vandaan.

Dank jullie wel voor jullie bezoekje en ik zou het leuk vinden als jullie een berichtje achter lieten.

Tot de volgende keer.

Groetjes, Yvon

100% Schattig

Hi there, bloggingfriends, finally weekend and i am so ready for it.

Here is an other Tilda card, can't help it, just love them so much.

I started with soft pink cardstock and on top of that DP-paper. Sorry, don't know wich brand it is because this was my last piece.

I colord Tilda with my flexmarkers, remember me to wright down the colors. Punched her out with a round nestie and underneath her a larger nestie in soft pink.

Then i glued them together on a "doily" and then on my card.

Added some white pluster-tex dots. Love it, how it turned out.

The sentiment is a freebie and you can get it at Femke. She has a lot of freebies, both English and Dutch. I printed it out on green cardstock.

The flowers are from my stash and i put some stickels on them.

Well, that's it from me. Hope you like what you see.

Wishing you all a fantastic weekend.

Wrowwww

Hi everybody, i'm still here, but my live is a bit hectic on the moment. I can't find the time to craft these days but today was a quit day so...... here is my card.

From my sis, Martine, thanks hun, i got this stamped image from Tilda. So adorable.

I just colord the stripes with a flexmarker and used a die-cut to cut her out. Then i put some bleu/white ribbon around the image, i think it looks nice.

With a Martha Stewart punch i punched two borders in bleu cardstock and put it behind the image as well.

Further on some flowers and pearls and i have to say, if you can say that from your own work, i like this one. Can't wait to hear what you all think about it.

With this card i want to join the challenge over at Just Magnolia where they want to see bleu and white.

Well, that's it from me, hope you all have a fantastic weekend and i hope to be back soon with an other card.

Just for fun

Hi girls,

Hope everybody is having a great weekend so far, mine is real quit so i could craft a litte.

This one i made just for fun. This Tilda i wanted to color in red with lots of shadows but that didn't turned out the way i had in mind. Practice, practice, practice, i know........

The papers are from Maja Designs and i love these bright colors. Distressed the borders with crushed olive from Tim Holtz and used a Martha Stewart punch.

The butterfly is a dy from Magnolia which i borrowed from my sis.

The green rose is also from Magnolia and the others are from my stash.

Well, that's it from me, have a sunny day tomorrow.

Happy Anniversary

Hi Peeps,

Finally had some time to craft and boy, i missed it.

I made a card for my sister and brother in law for there 12 1/2 years wedding anniversary.

I used papers from Magnolia and the image i got from a friend some time ago, i forgot where it's from. (Mo Manning??)

I colord the image with flexmarkers, and i really should practice more. Than i cut out the image with a spellbinder and underneath it an other spellbinder.

I choose this image because, when they are old and grey, they want to feed the dove's (?) on the Dam in Amsterdam.

Some lace and a hearth senitment, some pearls for the finishing touch.

The word Sweet is from Tim Holtz, gorgeous.

Well, that's it from me. Hope you all have a fantastic weekend and till next time.

My girlfriend

Yesterday i totally forgot to mention that my dear friend Erna also has a blog of er own.

If you would visit her than please click on her name and you will be linked to her blog.

Much appreciated.

Wish

And here is my card for today.

On the off-white cardstock i put a paper from Fancy Pants called Little Sprout and i used my new Martha Steward punch. Love this one.

Colord Tilda with my Derwent pencils and cut her out with a nestabilitie. Distressed the borders with distress ink. The gorgeous lace is from a local shop.

Cut out the hearts with a Marianne creatable and used some flowers from my stash. Here is a better look at the beautiful lace.

Distressed the ticket with Vintage Photo and crinckled (?) it a bit.

Well, that's it. I'm going to my parents to take a good long shower and than of to bed. Catch you all soon.

My sister

Woohoo, it's friday and i am so looking forward to the weekend. Long hours of sleep (i hope) maybe some breakfast in bed (wink, wink to my hubby) and......... a bit of cleaning. Mainly the floors, those men with there big workingshoes, it's one big mess over here. One more week and then they are ready and than, in march, they come back for all the windows, new glass and everything.

But now, for something completely different...... My sister, Martine, is a cardmaker aswell and since one week she finally has a blog of her own. Maybe some of you want to welcome her in blogland? That would be so awesome. Thanks so very much. If you click her name you will be linked to her blog.

Well, i have an other card ready and as soon as the pictures are made, i will put it on my blog.

Wishing everybody a fantastic weekend.

Daisy & Dandelion

Hi Girls,

Today i made a card with a decoupage sheet of Daisy & Dandelion, aren't they the cutest?

It's a simple card, just some off-white cardstock, some pink with a border of my Marta Stewart punch, a hearth-doily and a big flower.

On the next picture you can see that it was a long time ago since i made a card with decoupage. Have to remember that next time i must take a better look on where i put the next paper.

Just a little update about our bathroom, can you imagine the noise that it made yesterday and today. It was just awefull, the tilles on the wall where down in one our but the floor.... they had to use a drillboor ( i don't know if this is english) . Still having a headache from it.

Well, just one more week and that it will be finished and beautiful.

I love you

Finally i had some time to get crafty and boy did i missed it.

Last saturday i had an workshop at my local craftstore given by Nicole Verkooijen : coloring with flexmarkers. It was so much fun and we learned a lot, but i have to practice hard, verry hard.

I used 1 paper and it's called Red Checkert by Classic Collection. The border is made with a Martha Stewart punch and i distressed all the borders with Vintage Photo.

That big heart is from my stash and i think it was from Raher. I painted it with distress crackle paint Picket Fence.

Here you can see the crackles a bit better.

A few roses and pins and behind the heart a bit of non-woven compress.

The ticked is from my local craftstore and i distressed the borders with Vintage Photo and so the border of the heart.

Here you can see the coloring i did on Edwin. I think you still see to much shades, it doesn't flow from the one color into the other.

Well, that's it from me, hope you like what you see, just let me know.

Hope to get crafty again tomorrow, they are busy in my bathroom for the next two weeks, so no housecleaning for me for a few days. Joehoeeee.

Till next time.

Merry Christmas

I just want to wish all my blogginfriends a Verry Merry Christmas and a Happy, Healty and Crafty New Year.

Thank you!

Good morning Ladies,

Hope you're all okee, unfortunatly i have a BIG cold, got a soar troath and all the other nasty things, blahhhh.
I've decided to start blogging in English but forgive me if you're not able to understand some words.
So, on to my card. Last saturday it was my little girls birthday, she turned 14, wow, she's not the little girl anymore who i can cuddle and everything. Time flies.
She loves to dance, well ... hip hop not ballet, but i just love this image of Mo so i decided to use her. Colord with Derwent pencils and put stickels on her dress.



Cut her out with a round nestie. The paper is from my stash and the ribbon was bought in a local store and so are the tickets. Some flowers, also from my stash, with stickels on it.



In the last post on my blog i asked if you would like to make a birthday card for my girl and look what she got. She was so trilled with them, she just couldn't believe that people would do such a thing for someone they didn't know. She would like to thank Amy, Ellen, Jopie, Jeannette en Marianne for the beautiful cards. I bought her this heart for her room where she can show the cards.

Well, i'm off to the doctor. Hope that he has something that makes me feel better very quickly.

Just some piccies and a question

Hi Girls, hope you all have a fab weekend. Here in Holland it's real crafty-weather but my inspiration is missing. Can't find it anywhere. So i thought i'd share some photo's i made this morning in my garden.



Don't you just love those little bubbles on the spiderweb?





And now for my question. My daughter will be 14 on november 26 and i know that she would be trilled to get some birthdaycards on her day. Because of our little family she will be getting 3 cards top and while she is a BIG puber right now: nobody loves me, she thinks, it would be so, so nice if she could get more that 3 cards so she will feel a bit better. If you like to make a card for my "little" girl you can email me for the adress.
A big thank you from me. (I hope you all understand my english (lol)

Well, that's me for now. Enjoy the rest of your sunday and till next time.
