A card for my sister
Today my sister and her husband went home.
We hebben het ontzettend leuk gehad en ik vind afscheid nemen nooit leuk, maar ja het hoort erbij.

One more Christmas card
Tuesday, December 16, 2008
I am still here........
I am still here and so is my cold trying hard to get over it.
Tuesday, December 9, 2008
A nasty cold....
I got this nasty cold and I don't have extra energy to go to my stamp room.
I didn't share many Christmas cards either, not because I don't want to show them, it's way worse..............I didn't make them............
So hopefully things will get better soon, my to do list is growing every day.
Hope you are all having a good day, Anja

Anniversary card
Wednesday, December 3, 2008
Almost the same card.......
This is a card I made Tuesday morning, I didn't have a lot of time so I used the same layout and colours as the previous card and I dried the stickles with the heater in our car. Don't worry, my husband was driving.

Soft, cool colours for SC 204
Soft colours, makes me think of spring but we are far away from that.
I really like the card, hope you do too.
There are some crystal stickles in the middle of the flowers but it's hard to see in the picture. I have a busy day ahead so this is a short post. Have a good day and thanks for looking, Anja

Embossed trees
I need a masculine birthday card and this is all I can think of.
Monday, November 24, 2008
Two similar cards
same colours, same idea.
I have used my CB borders along the side with some liquid pearls on top.
Both of those cards need to go in the mail today......
since I made them in time I better get at it.
My friend and I are making a hot lunch today for
3 "old" Dutch ladies, I don't think they visit my blog, they probably don't like it when we call them old. Anyway we did this last year and had a great time, so I am taking a turn today.
It's amazing what you can learn from those ladies who went through so much and came to Canada when immigrating meant, you were probably never gonna see your family again, no email and such things.
So I am off to the kitchen to prepare some things, have a nice day and thanks for looking,Anja

Another old favourite
I needed a baby girl card and didn't have one in my stash so I quickly made this card. The picture isn't the greatest, sorry, it's getting dark so early, hard to take good pictures.

Nothing new to share
This is a hectic week at my house and that means not a lot of stamping time, and I am going away for the weekend with the ladies from church, a scrapbookweekend, as you can tell, all about me.........

Just a simple card
The card I am sharing with you today is a simple sympathy card with the new kiwi kiss and black.
Saturday, November 8, 2008
VSHR5, please turn your head!
Sketch challenge number 5 , I cann't get the picture up right,grrrrrrrr
VSHR4, pink, kiwi and riding red hood.
For this card I have used the new in colours from SU, the new pink, kiwi and riding red hood. I made 2 cards like this and the other one had fake stitching around the flowers but I have sent it away already and the computer wouldn't take the memory card from my one camera.............grrrr,
so I made another picture with my Rebel and the computer was being nice to me. Anyway, enough complaining, when I looked for a colour combo at SCS I never thought I would put those colours together but I love it.
The bird is a Martha Stewart punch and the saying is from VERVE stamps!!
Now I am off to my kitchen and start dinner preparations, we are having company tonight, then some cleaning and while I am doing that I can think about sketch number 5.
Have a great day and thanks for stopping by, Anja

Thursday, November 6, 2008
VSHR2
For the second sketch from Julee, www.poetricartistry.blogspot.com,
I used one of my old favourite SU stamps, coloured on it with markers.
There are some crystal Stickles on the flowers, the picture doesn't do the card justice but I cann't seem to get a better one.
I have to run for an appointment, thanks for looking, Anja

Last night I did realize that I needed a baby boy card for church this morning, so I quickly made this one.
Saturday, November 1, 2008

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend, Anja

Sketch challenge 200
Last time..........
I gave this card one more try and that will be it, I just wasn't happy with the result and the previous picture was awful so I did remove it.

Fall card
How frustrating!!
Maybe because it doesn't look like fall at all outside, there is snow on the ground and still more to come.
Some trees still have their leaves and the sun is just coming out, I better take some pictures.
Hope to be back to post the card, have a good day, Anja

Home again........
Today I had a little stamping time, hope to post it tomorrow because I want to change something, not quite happy as it is now. I was inspired by the beautiful fall colours!!
So I am still alive and very happy to be home again.
Have a good evening and thanks for stopping by, Anja

The new SU colours
This card I made yesterday, playing with some of the new SU in colours.
Lots of fun too.
This card is for my niece, who is spending a year in China to go to the university there.
On Wednesday I am leaving to go see my family in Holland and I am also teaching a workshop for my sisters and their friends.
I am really excited about that, wouldn't it be nice to get my travel expenses covered??
I don't think that will happen but family time is price less!!
So I won't be posting any cards for about 2 weeks, I hope you girls come back to visit my blog, have a good day, Anja

Just nosey......
Please come by to visit often, thanks Anja
Taylor's cupcake challenge,TECC34
you can see her beautiful work and her
awesome sketch challenges.
For TECC34 I made this card, when I was leaving her a comment that I had made a card for this I realized how I really did stick to the sketch.
The dp is from American Crafts, so saffron from SU and the red is from Hobby Lobby.
I put some stickles on the flowers in the bird, but it's hard to see in the picture, the fake stitches are done with a stamp from Close to my Heart, the bird is from Inkadinkadoo and the saying from Verve stamps.
I am happy with this colour combo, after all tomorrow fall will start.
Have a wonderful day and thanks for looking, Anja

Butterflies in teal and turqoise
This card is not all my own idea, a card similar to this one I had made at a workshop a while ago, I changed some things and added the scalloped circle with the sentiment. I think this card is perfect for the ladies to assemble that night. Hope they like it, I am happy with it, have a good evening and thanks for stopping by, Anja
