CaS op zaterdag 117 / CAS on saturday 117

Wat een week is dit geweest! Drie dagen lang te warm om in mijn hobbykamertje aan de gang te gaan, wat ik natuurlijk wel heb geprobeerd, maar dat was geen succes... Gisteren eindelijk lekker warm maar niet té en dus de weinige vrije tijd goed benut, maar dat zien je later deze week. Vandaag is het ook goed uit te houden in mijn hobbykamertje, maar het is ook het begin van de zomervakantie hier! Vandaag een drukke dag, dus een hele tijd op pad geweest en vanavond snel aan de slag gegaan en deze twee kaarten gemaakt:
What a week this was! Three days long it was too warm to get some stamping done in my little craftsroom, I tried, but that was no succes... Yesterday it finally was warm, but not too warm, so I have filled all the bits and pieces of free time yesterday with stamping, the results I will show you later this week. Today it is also not too warm to enjoyed time in my craftroom, but it also is the start of the Summervacation here! Today a bussy day, so first we ere "on route"and this evening I worked on these two cards:


De eerste is voor de uitdaging bij Chocolate Baroque voor hun 2e verjaardag en tegelijkertijd voor de uitdaging bij LIM waar wat tastbaars gevraagd word. Daarom heb ik kurk en burlappapier, twine en glazen druppels gebruikt .
The first is for the challenge at Chocolate Baroque for theit second B-day and also for LIM, where the aske for tactile. That's way I used cork, burlappaper, twine and glass drops.




Gebruikte materialen:
Used materials:
Stempels: Chocolate Baroque Bold Blooms en Just butterflies
Inkt: Versafine Vintage sepia en Memento Desert sand
Overige: Créme kleruig cardstock, kurk, burlappapier, twine en glazen druppels


Omdat ik echt een geboortekaart nodig had, deze als 2e kaart gemaakt met de kleuren van CASCpolours and Skethes en de lijnen-achtergrond van de photoweek bij Just Us Girls:
I am in need for a babycard, so I made one as second card with the colours ad AS Colours and Sketches and the backgroundlines from the Photochallenge at Just Us Girls:



Gebruikte materialen:
Used materials:
Stempels: Wild Roses, Marianne Design
Inkt: Versamark en witte fine WOW EP, DI Mustard seed en Peacok feathers en Memento Londom fog
Overige: Stempelpapier, blendingtool, vellum, Caran D'Ache kleurpotloden en wit cardstock



Ik ben er van tussen; nog lekker een beetje buiten genieten...
I'm off; just a little bit enjoying the perfect evening outside...



Fijn weekend en creatieve groetjes,
Gerrina
