DCWV July Sketch Card.......

Since April 1st I can not bring myself to sit down and design, I'm so tired since I work 

full time!! Something in my head and body says to me NO it's to much.....

I stare at the paper, but nothing comes out of my hands. 

Last week and weekend I had no other choice, I had to scrap because I have 
appointments with scrapbook manufacturers and challenge sites like 
DCWV and Let's get Sketchy...

And thank god It came slowly but It came back my Scrapbooking Mojo....well to late but 
I've done it......Yesss.....

My first design for LGS after a break of three months you can see on my 4th of july blogpost

"The Power of Love"

My second design for DCWV a card for the Stack-a-holic July 2016 and it turned out 
very nice come and see......

"Just for You"

For this design I just the Birds and Butterflies Stack, I love the bright colors,

For my base I had to use white cardstock size 19.5 cm x 9.5 cm. 

I made the butterfly with a piece of designpaper and a sizzix stans, for the title I used a 

chipboard element from Scrapiniec...

I hope you like my design but the main thing is I hope I gave you enough inspiration to 
work with  the DCWV July Sketches.

JOY with DCWV................

Today I want to promoot and share with you my JOY project that I made 

for my GDT spot at DCWV....

There for I used the new Christmas WallDecals (self-adhesive) and 

3 letters made of cardboard.

The Christmas WallDecals are gorgeous and you can use them on all kind of 
surfaces - materials. 

First I painted the Cardboard letters white with Arcrylic paint, make sure that it is 
pure white, when everthing is dry I mounted the Christmas WallDecals on to the 

front side of the letters. After that I used spray adhesive on the sides 
I want to edit with powder snow.  

Powder Snow is very easy to use and gives a stunning effect. 
It's shiny and looks like real snow.

At last I want to show you another snap shot of my Christmas decoration

 Thanks for stopping by!!!  I hope you liked my Christmas decoration project and

Christmas Greetings with DCWV......

Today I want to show you my Christmas Greetings Card for DCWV,

I'm not really a card maker but now and then I find it really cool to do. 

For the base I used packaging material, I taped them together. Then I edited the base

with a red-and-white dot design paper.

On the right side of the card you wil see a blue strip with a deer on it, this strip

is 3.5 cm wide.  Against the blue border I attached a half journaling 

card and in the left corner of this journaling card a attached a christmas tree element

 "a deer".  First I thought I hope it wil hold and it deed, 

well as you can see this is not a card that you can send by postmail 

because no envelope will fit. 

 

For this project I used the gorgeous DCWV stack "Oh What Fun", gorgeous red, blue
and ice blue colors a perfect combination for Christmas. 
And o so traditional, I love the deer head I bought this in a very cheap store    
"Action" here in the Netherland.

For the title I used a Lawn Fawn custom craft die, I love those custom dies they are 
very romantic hand written. 

At last I want to show you another snap shot of my Christmas Greetings card.

Thanks for stopping by!!!  I hope you liked my Christmas project and remember to 

leave some love and click on the blogger link to follow the blog!

  

Christmas Stockings with DCWV......

A Christmas stocking is an empty sock or sock-shaped bag that is hung on

Christmas eve so that Santa Claus can fill it with small toys, candy, fruit or 
other small gifts when he arrives. In some Christmas stories, 
the contents of the Christmas stocking are 

the only toys the child receives at Christmas from Santa Claus.

In other stories (and in tradition), some presents are also wrapped up in wrapping paper 

and placed under the Christmas tree.

Some people even put their Christmas stocking by their bedposts so Santa Claus 

can fill it by the bed while they sleep.

A perfect project for my design spot at DCWV, only I made them from 
paper, felt, tags, silver bells and twine....

I used the gorgeous new Christmas Stack  "Oh What Fun" with
traditional Christmas Colors!!

I had a lot of fun making those stockings, they are simple and easy to make.
So if you want to bright up your christmas livingroom this is a project that will do 
the job.... For me, it was the first time to create a Christmas Garland, I finished
the Christmas Garland in a couple of hours!!

Let's take a look at a few socks separatly  

If I may say so - I find them so sweet....

THanks for stopping by!!!  I hope you liked my Christmas project and remember to

something different with this Reveal

fitted with DCWV Happy day Stack!!

The card Stack O-Halic Sketch is a clean and simple sketch but it is a nice one,

but also romantic flowers en handwritten golden lines, also on this designpaper
