Anyone from Anya Challenge, That's Charming.....

Hiya ladies so I was playing with the stamped up images that I received from a very sweet friend and decided to make a card...this time not a christmas card or wintercard......but a card with very bright colors..........
The challenge is this time to use a charme....that whas not a problem for me hihih cause I have a few charmes......
Hai ladies....ik was even aan het spelen gisteravond met dit mooie afdrukje die ik van een lieve vriendin heb gekregen...en toen bedacht ik dat ik maar eens een kaart ermee moest maken....deze keer geen kerstkaart of een winterkaart...maar een kaart met frisse kleuren.Voor de challenge moet je een embellisment gebruiken of een charm zoals gezegd wordt. Dat was dus niet zo'n probleem hiihi ik heb wel een paar embellishments.....

I  just love this little Anya.....wow....colored her with my copic ciao's and was thinking why don''t I enter the challenge from Anyone from Anya......so I had fun and made my card last night....

Ik vind deze Anya helemaal te gek...wow....ik heb haar ingekleurd met mijn copic ciao's en bedacht dat ik maar eens een keertje weer mee moest doen met de challenge van Anyone for Anya.....I heb veel plezier gehad met het maken van mijn kaart gisteravond....

                                

And this is something new for me......Usually I use one kind of flower....but this time ....I used a few.....all in the yellow color....and yep the embellishment is a little heart......just love this one.....

En dit is weer eens wat anders voor mij.....Normaliter gebruik ik 1 soort bloemen....maar dit keer heb ik eens een paar verschillende bloemen gebruikt...allemaal in de kleur zachtgeel....en ja hoor ook een embellishment, het hart....vind deze echt geweldig.....

                                                                                   

                                   

So this is the card that I made....used the  new Basic Grey Paperpad....Origines.....wowwww..so wonderfull these colors....this time I took the greenish, yellow and brown colors...don't you just love them.....I sure do.....and the off white ribbon is also a winner in my eyes......never used them before so it was about time.....

En dit is de kaart die ik ermee gemaakt heb......heb de nieuwe Basic Grey Paperpad...Origins gebruikt....wow.....zo geweldig deze kleuren...voor nu heb ik de groenige, gelige en bruinige kleuren gebruikt..Vinden jullie ze niet geweldig.....Ik echt wel zeg....en het off white lint is zeker een winnaar in mijn boekje....had het nog nooit gebruikt dus het werd wel tijd.......

                                                     ................Thanks for watching ladies............

Friday Sketchers Challenge 74 Sketch by Carole

So here I am again, I was crafting with the kids this afternoon and tried to get my card done....hiih no way jose....yep the cards from the kids are done...but mine was just waiting there to be finished....So I did tonight.....I made this sketch from Friday Sketchers and the sketch is from Carole, thanks very much hun I really had fun working with it.

Zo daar ben ik weer ladies, ik was vanmiddag met mijn kids aan het knutselen en heb geprobeerd om mijn kaart klaar te krijgen..hiihi niet dus.....ja Denice en Shannon hun kaartjes zijn wel klaar, maar die van mij zat gewoon te wachten totdat ik hem af ging maken....Dus deed ik dat vanavond...Ik heb de sketch gemaakt van Friday Sketchers, de sketch is van Carole....dank je wel hoor meis, ik heb veel plezier gehad om ermee te werken...

So this is my new stamp that I got a few weeks ago or so....I just love this little girl, but I did not make a card with her yet...so it was about time..... I colored her with my derwents....

Dit is een nieuwe stempel die ik een paar weken geleden binnenkreeg.....Ik vind het een schatje....maar ik had dus nog helemaal geen kaart met haar gemaakt, dus het werd tijd....Ik heb haar ingekleurd met mijn Derwents....

So I used a few different flowers, the first time I used the large rose....but I do love it....and the little roses yep a lot of fun to use.....and the other flowers, I forgot there names....maybe You know the name?

Ik heb gekozen voor een paar verschillende bloemen...de eerste keer met een grote roos....maar ik vind hem erg mooi....een paar kleine roosjes, ook heel leuk om te gebruiken en de andere bloemetjes....ja ik ben de naam natuurlijk vergeten he....weet JIJ het misschien?

This is the card I made for Friday Sketchers, I am pleased with the result.....for this time hihihih.....The only thing that really buggs me is that this beautifull girl is so pale.....but that's because of the photo I think.....Almost forgot, I really enjoyed working with the Basic Grey Indian Summer paperpad....wow those colours are really wonderfull....

Dit is de kaart die ik voor Friday Sketchers heb gemaakt, ik ben tevreden met het resultaat....voor deze keer...hihihhi...Het enige wat me irriteert is dat het prachtige meiske zo dof overkomt....maar ik denk dat dat door de foto komt....oh bijna vergeten, Ik heb veel plezier gehad aan het werken met Basic Grey, Indian Summer paperpad...wow zeg die kleuren zijn echt gaaf hoor.....

.......Thanks for watching ladies......

A Christmas card.....

So ladies, I made a few Christmas cards, my mom asked me if I could make some....hihihi about 20 hiih.....so I am a good daughter and I listen to my mom, so I made some.....

Zo ladies, ik heb een paar kerstkaartjes gemaakt, mijn moeder had het me gevraagd om een stuk of 20 te maken.....en natuurlijk luister ik naar mijn moeder.....dus ben ik alvast begonnen.....

I have used the Basic Grey paperpad, Eskimo kisses......and I just love the colors....and the stamp is from Magnolia....a friend gave it to me as a present isn't that sweet.....I colored this cute snowman with my Derwents.

Ik heb gebruik gemaakt van de paperpad van Basic Grey, Eskimo Kisses....en ik vind de kleuren echt geweldig....de stempel is van Magnolia....een vriendin heeft me deze stempel gegeven als kadootje...is dat niet lief??.....Ik heb de afbeelding ingekleurd met mijn derwents...

The flower is from my Retro Flower punch, from EK succes....really wonderfull to use...and the little oakleaves are from the Martha Stewart punch...Inside the flower I used a spacer with a splitpen....

De bloem is van de Retro Flower pons gemaakt, van EK succes.....echt geweldig om te gebruiken....en de kleine eikenblaadjes komen van de Martha Stewart Pons....in het midden van de bloem heb ik een spacer en spitpen gebruikt.

I used lightblue ribbon and a mall from a nestie .....I doubled the nestie with 3D foam...

Ik heb lichtblauw lint gebruikt en een malletje van een nestabillitie....Ik heb hem dubbel gebruikt met 3D foam eronder...

Then I thought why don't I do the inside of the card too.....so I did.....

Ik dacht laat ik eens de binnenkant van de kaart doen....dus dat heb ik maar gedaan.

I kept it simple but I am pleased about it.....

Ik heb het simpel gehouden maar ben er wel tevreden over......

.....Thanks for watching ladies......

Wish........

Weer een kaartje gemaakt, deze heb ik afgelopen weekend gemaakt, ik vind haar zelf geslaagd, nou zeg ik dat niet zo gauw van mijn eigen kaartjes....maar bij deze ben ik zeer tevreden....

Ik heb gebruik gemaakt van het afdrukje van Whiff of Joy, wat een geweldige afbeelding.....heel lief.....

Another card that I made, last weekend I made this card, I am very happy about this one I don't say that about my own cards but with this one I am very pleased. ......I used the image of Whiff of Joy, what an amazing image....very sweet...

Ik heb roosjes op de kaart gebruikt en onderaan 1 roosje heb ik kraaltjes gebruikt, onderaan de embellishment met de tekst "Wish".

I used some roses and untherneath the rose I used some beads, underneath the embellishment the text "Wish".
Verder nog gebruik gemaakt van de kleine pareltjes....ze lijken wel heel erg groot zo, maar dat komt omdat ik de foto iets groter gemaakt zodat jullie het goed kunnen zien. Verder nog kant gebruikt.

I used some little pearls.......they look huge....but that is because I enlarged the photo some what so you can see the pearls a little bit better. And I used some lace on the card.

En ook een paar knopen geplaatst ....en bovenop het knoopje een pareltje...

And I used some buttons ...and on top of the button a pearl.
Oh ja ik heb het Lemonade papier gebruikt van Basic Grey, dat was ik nog vergeten te zeggen, het papier is zo fris en heel erg fijn om mee te werken....

dit is in ieder geval het eindresultaat ....."Wish".

Oh yeah I used the Lemonade paper from Basic Grey, I almost forgot to mension it. This paper is so fresh and very nice to use. This card is the result of a night of crafting. ....."Wish".

.......Thanks for wathing ladies......
