Some of my latest....

Made about 2 weeks ago, but just didn't have time to post!
I used the Oxford Impressions Steampunk sheet for this skinny, love those stamps, now I just need more time!

This ATC is made with the same sheet, so as you see, it fits perfectly although if you use a skinny, card or something else you have a little more "working space".

This Christmas 4x4 is made with the Painted Paper Collage technique, I'm so totally in love with this... can't stop using it, the effect is different all the time!

Thanks for stopping by again, I know I've been bad with visiting and I'm trying to be better!!

Transfer, and gesso/acrylicpaint

The last couple of days I've been playing with gesso, paint, ink, and lots of stuff...... even did a transfer with Mod Podge........
Turned out nicely don't you think........ kind of vague, but that gives it a nice vintage look I think!

I've also been making some 4x4's, with gesso and acrylic paint..... stamped with paint..... did a lot of things and these 2 are the result.


Honestly, I'm crazy about this one, love the lady with the big boobies, the colors, just everything turned out like I wanted it to!
If you stop by at Marijke's blog you will see a 4x4 similar to this one! We both used the same picture and she taught me how to do this technique, I love it, and am addicted I think!


Thanks for stopping by again, and have a wonderful day!

Short post.........

Just to let you know I'm still around:-)
All the things I have been working on lately, can't be shown yet, cause the people they are for haven't received them yet!
So, just an ATC I've made, a triangular shape, very nice to do, but also very hard to find something that fits on it!

I really have to make more ATC's as I'm trading a lot lately, fun, but I have to have some left LOL. So of to my desk and start creating again!

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by again!

First work of the year!

Finally I start to feel better, last Saturday I went to the Walk-in Clinic and got antibiotics, made it worse first, I even got a fever. Didn't go to work all week, and last night I went back to the Walk-in again, and got a cough medicine with codeine in it! Boy, did I sleep good at night! For the first time in about a week I didn't wake up coughing like crazy!

But staying at home, not feeling well, can be very boring, so Wednesday I started to make some ATC's (the first 3 on the top row), yesterday I made the orange one, Wings, and just now I finished Grin..... that's fun to do, making an ATC out of cardboard that you tear a bit. I used some beads, wax thread, buttons and staples for this one, and the pictures on all the ATC's are by Lisa's Altered Art!

Thanks for stopping by again!

No power, play time!

Yesterday we had no power for about 4 hours, so I decided to give myself some "playtime" and started making Distress ink backgrounds.. Until I wanted to use my heattool...... and it didn't work..... No idea why....... and than it hit me...... ofcourse, no power, no use of heattool!!!

That's how used we are to using electricity...... when you need it, you've got it...... only not when I needed it LOL

Anyway, after the power was working again, and I had cut my pictures in the meantime, I could finally make my backgrounds, and this is the result!

(pictures are by Lisa's altered art)

Had a lot of fun, and I think I am going to make some more backgrounds, work starts at 1 pm, so I still have some time! No idea when I can show those, cause I work all week..... nice, but not much play time!!

Have a great day, where ever you are!

I am Woman

My entry for Mixed Media Monday, theme I am Woman. Just a "simple" ATC, but I loved the picture!

Some ATC's

It's been a while, but I've been down with the flu for about a week. Still not a 100% but at least the creativity started to flow a bit!

All these are made with the Happy Accident technique, one of my favorites at the moment, Hermine is the one who came up with this idea, and if you click here, you will get to her tutorial!

No idea why they are all over the place, blogger won't work with me!

Thanks for stopping by again and until next time!

Halloween!!

I know, Halloween is over already, but at Nancy's Darkness Inspiration blog

it just keeps going on till November 12!

Love those challenges and this is what I made!

Thanks for stopping by again!

Vampires!

Nancy had a new challenge, a week ago already, I just missed it cause of my mom being here, but as it is a 2 week challenge... I am still in time with this one!
Vampires was the challenge... well, they are really "hot" at the moment, movies, tv-shows, at least here we have Vampire Diaries, and I like that show a lot!
So I googled a bit and found this really creepy vampire "girl" cut it out, and glued it on a background done with soft pastels. The letters are from a puzzle in the newspaper, they come in very handy sometimes! Oh, and I made an ATC!

Thanks for stopping by again, and have a great day!

Just one more day..........

Yep, just one more day and we are going to the airport to pick up my mom! She's coming to visit us for 3 weeks, life is sooooo good! It will be so great having her here, doing nice things, chatting, just relaxing and enjoying eachothers company!
Two years ago she came for the first time, last year we went to the Netherlands, and now it's her turn again:-)
We just can't wait..... just one more night ....... the girls are all excited and so are we!

So, I guess the coming weeks I won't be posting that much..... so I leave you with this ATC I made this week, with new stamps, from I Brake for Stamps, awesome store!! Actually, these stamps are by Stampinback in the Netherlands, but for me it's easier to order in the States and I Brake.....sells this line too!
Only the Vive la France stamp is from Cherry Pie, and as I love all things from France, I'll probably see if I can find more stamps!
Thanks for stopping by again, hopefully I will find some time to post, maybe with some nice pictures, you never know!
