12 Tags of 2014: January & February Tags

Hello World,

Today I come to you with my first 12 Tags of ... of this year.

This weekend I finally had time to catch up and make the tags.

So here they are. As usual I try to work with the items I have and I substitute the items I don't have. I always did it this way. 

Firstly the January Tag.

And then we still have the February Tag:

Thank you for reading my blog and let me know what you think of my work.

Have a great time.

Happy Valentine

Hello World,

Finally I get around to blogging. I have had quite a bit of a hectic period, I crafted quite a bit, but didn't find the time to put it on here, so it will follow soon.

I could however not let all off you be without wishing you all a Happy Valentines Day.

And for this occasion I want to share my projects that I made for this month as hobby farm design team member. The theme is love.

My love canvas turned out fantastic, I had a lot fun creating it, I wanted to make it soft yet sparkly and bright, and that look and feel is exactly what you see when you look at the canvas.

 The next project was a big valentines card, because there must be a lot off place to write a love not, don't you thing? 

And because often the packaging of gift cards is extremely ugly, I made a pocket on the inside of the card, with a tag where you can fit in the gift card, so that a gift card can be easily given together with the card without falling out, or being obvious, and without ugly packaging.

And finally I had some leftovers from the white and pink paper, so I made little candy bags. 

They are so cute, I love them. And what a great way to use those leftovers.

The projects are being exposed at Hobby Farm (in Eeklo - Belgium) at the moment
so you can see them live if you want.

That's all for tonight folks.

Have a great weekend and thank you for reading my blog.

New Years wishing Card.

Hello world,

I wanted to do a New Years card with graphic 45 papers using the "The Twelve Days of  Christmas" paper collection without getting a Christmas look and feel.

So I  got to it and used mostly the gorgeous backsides of my 8 by 8 paperpad and I like the end result very much.

I also used my Dymo labelmaker to add some original text and some flowers and a few Basic Grey Half pearls.

Let me know what you think of it.

I entered this card in the Simon Says Stamp monday challenge - anything goes

Thank you for reading my blog.

12 Tags of 2013 - November

Hello World,

My catch up on blogging is going steady, I'm giving you my next tag in the 12 tags of 2013 series, the one for November.

It is the one where Tim gets us nostalgic to our school days and the use of blackboards. Can you remember all those times you had to go outside to get the chalk dust out of the blackboard wipers by beating them together...

Well here is my version. I hope you like it.

Thank you for reading and see you tomorrow for the December tag.

Happy New Year & 12 Tags of 2013 - October

Hello guys,

I have been a little busy this past time so my blog didn't get the attention it deserves, but I rather play with my inks and paints than blog when I have to choose between those 2, but hey I'm back and with good new year resolutions to update as much as possible.

I still didn't show all my tags from the 12 tags of 2013. So that will be posted this week, along with the start of the 12 tags of 2014. Yes, I'm going to do them as well this year.

Here is my october tag for the 12 tags of 2013.

And I really can choose my moments, it is proven again. Today is the first time I crafted this year. And what did I manage to do... I broke one of my cutting plates for my cuttlebug. Luckely I already have some new ones, if it is really curved the plate you know sooner or later it will pop, well today it did.

Thank you for reading my blog today.

Scraptastic 2013

Hello everyone,

A few weeks ago at Scraptastic I gave make & takes where  the people could choose between some tags to make. Here are my samples:

      

 

It was so much fun teaching the people, and meeting up with some of the people I didn't see for a while was really fantastic.

Hope to see you all soon.

Hugs,
Caroline
