Vandaag hebben we een super leuke Belgische blog hop voor je klaar staan (de Crafty Be’s bloghop). Enkele creatievelingen en mezelf tonen vandaag een kaartje gemaakt in onze eigen stijl. Het moet een leuke hop zijn om andere Nederlandstaligen te leren kennen. Zijn jullie er klaar voor? Als je hier begint hop dan even naar het begin: Els: http://www.elsbrige.com/blog.

Ik maak af en toe kaartjes maar mijn hoofdbezigheid is scrapbook layouts. Als ik een kaartje maak gebruik ik maak dezelfde technieken als op mijn layouts. Voor dit kaartje heb ik gekozen met waterverf te spelen. Hier is het resultaat. Ik heb er ook een videootje bij gemaakt. 

De volgende halte is bij DEBORAH. (http://deborahsshiningcards.blogspot.be) Geniet ervan.Vergeet niet elke deelnemer van de bloghop te bezoeken:

A little something to show

Scrapbooking has taken a back seat at the moment. I have mixed feelings about it. I love creating but at the same time I'm missing the inner motivation. So when I scrapbook now I do it when it feels absolutely right. I have also been having severe back pain . Physiotherapy and my chiropractor have been helping me. It will take time but the pain is getting better and better. I have a very high pain threshold but when I am in pain it is horrible. Pain drains my energy and I feel helpless because I can't be active. Maybe I do too much but I have such a hard time just sitting still. Well I'm nearly there but I'll have to really careful and running is a big no no which is really hard to accept. Enough about my back and on to the creative part.
Here are two layouts I created this month. I'm slowly getting back in the groove.

Hope to be back soon with more scrapbooking and maybe a video.
Oh and my next class at BigPictureClasses will be live soon. Check it out here. I'll be doing a give-away soon so keep your eyes open.
Happy Scrapping

Young ...

37 is creeping up slowly and 40 is coming closer and closer. One thing I have learnt the last couple of years is that the number means nothing. I know myself better now than when I was 20 and I feel more me each and every day. Being creative has also been a catalyst to becoming a more confident person. I can look in the mirror and say that I like the person looking back. I still have a long journey. I am trying to be more open to God and his word. Young is a state of mind. I feel I have so much more to discover and achieve. Life has only just started. 

 I loved using my Hipkit to create this layout. FUN FUN FUN. That is what scrapbooking needs to be.

Last layout for Scrapaddictes

Today my last post went live for Scrapaddictes. I loved working for them. It was laid back and fun but I need to take a step back. I think this is currently my favourite layout because of the bright colours.

I hope to get some scrapping done this weekend and I have some ideas for class at BigPicture so I'll be writing down some ideas too.
Happy Scrapping.

Long time no scrap

It has been a while since I posted something. In August I did scrapbook but mostly for my next class and BigPictureClasses and for Esprit Scrapbooking. Creating has to stay fun so as long as I don't feel the need I don't force myself. Yesterday I felt the need to sit and create and that is exactly what I did. I enjoyed myself and just created because I wanted to. I missed that feeling of freedom. 

Here are two pages I made. The first using Hip kits and the second with items that were lying on my desk. 

 

I used my sizzix butterfly punch on this layout just because I like butterflies. 

Have a wonderful Sunday and see you soon.
