real challenge.....See for your self



For my take I used the gorgeous Marquee Stack from DCWV, all kind 
of blue's and purples. 


I actually wanted the pictures a little bit lighter, but wat I did nothing worked,
the sketch is awesome but I had a hard time making it my own!!
So I choice to do the clean and simple way....I didn't want to make it more
difficult than it is already.

Ocean Breeze Cards with DCWV part 2.....

Today I want to show you 1 special cards I designed for DCWV, and 
I used again the gorgeous Ocean Breeze Stack,
it's gorgeous with lots of Anchors, Sailboots, Whales, Steering Wheels all printed in
amazing colors like blue, white, silver and a very special sea color pink!!!


This line is so great to work with, everything fits together....

For the base I used Bazzill white cardstock, the sizes of these cards are 8"x 6",
de size of the first layer is 3.6"x 5.5"
So as you can see I used this time a whale figure and 1 pink tekst strip.
The Whale in my card contains a quote, I love this quote.... 


Isn't he gorgous.....and he fits perfectly in all ocean or sea project. It is very
unfortunate that these Stacks ar not sold in the Netherlands.

Love with Let's get Sketchy.....

Hello everyone, its Astrid again with another reveal featuring our fabulous 
sketches at Let's get Sketchy.
The first sketch 2016 for team B is made by Laëticia, unfortunately Laëticia is no longer 
a member of LGS but she left us some pretty awesome sketches.
See for your selfs, isn't a challenge, well for me it is, over and over again she 
challenges everybody to the most extreme levels.

Laëticia sketch....

My take on this gorgeous sketch "Love...."



For my take I didn't use the standard 12"x 12" cardstock but I toke half 6"x 12" also a 
challenge for me. It feels like you are making a banner.
For this tiny layout I used the gorgeous paper collection "Home for the Holidays "
designed by Maja Design!!!
Bazzill white Cardstock, dies from Cheery Linn and Memory Box.

Reminiscing on 2015!!!

Hi Everyone,
Just thought to reminisce on the past year.
2015 was an eventful year with ups and downs.
Up's 2015 -- designer for DCWV & LGS, still on board @ Scrapplezier, a new job.
Down's -- stopped our own business, treath on our freedom.
But still I'm very grateful for the life I've been given and I'm wishing all of us a 
healthy and peaceful new year!!
 May this world feel some much needed peace and may all of us send some love 
into this world to make it a better place.

I've chosen a project from each month from this past year!!
I tried to choose those projects that were meaningful to me or that brought 
some meaning into my life!!

Thank you so much for all the support you have given me this past year.
 Have a happy and healthy new year!!!
