Sunday Scrappage: pancakes

Tis weeks page is about making lunch with Owen.
He just loves helping in the kitchen.

I am so happy Club Scrap has a Kitchen kit this month!
You can see it here:
and there are somany fun matching unmounted stamps:
You can see all they have on the website:

With the scrap kit always come some fun sentiments 
you can cut and add to your pictures.

The journaling as usual with the computer.
The kitchenware is a stampi had left over from
this weeks stamping with gelatos
(that is the March Technique on the Club Scrap blog).

And this sentiment just called out to use my
Michael Strong mini heart stamp, The top one
is done with the gelato technique (which ives a more
watercolor look)and the other one is embossed with
red embossing powder.

And this text box is made in word on my computer
and says: Oma,can I get another pancake?!

Thank you for looking.

Have a delicious creative day!

Saturday Sketch: pocket card

Here is my card for the sketch on the
Sorry,it became another coffee card!

This is the sketch. At first I had the idea of 
making a pocket with an ATC,but it turned out
differently. I added a sachet of coffee in the pocket.

The card is 6 x 4 1/4 " with a pocket of 5,5 x 3,5 inch.
Imade this pocket with the envelope punch board.On  the
board itself you can read exactly what size paper you need
to make the envelop. So if you want to make adifferent size
pocket,all the measurements are there.
I cut of the topof the envelop and used a circle punch.
In the background you see a Club Scrap coffee ring stamp.
The sentiment is by Create with TLC
and the mini coffee cup is by Michael Strong.

And a peek into the inside of the card, where some
coffee rings were also stamped.

Thanks for looking!
Have a creative day!

Club Scrap March technique challenge: markers


So here is the 3rd way of  multiple inks on
a single stamp.Today it is all about markers.

You find all the information of the
Club Scrap technique challenge HERE

So here are my samples for today:

When working with markers on a stamp, you can really color the detailsof a stamp.
Here I started using the tea cups from last month kit London calling.
I colored the cups with my Tim Holtz markers.
They work wonderful with the brush side.

Working with markers is also geat for a big collage stamp.
You can color all the details much easier than with an inkpad.
Now you want to see the finished cards.
Made the collage stamp intoan antique map
with distressing the paper and adding some brown ink.
All papers, ribbon and stamps are London Calling,
but the red paper is from Homestead.
Here is another card I made with the cups.
I ralized i had another set of stamps with tea things.
It is called Infusion from 2008:

The spoon on the left is embossed with silver
embossing powder on top of the colored text.
It is the same style as the cups, so the spoon
and the sentiment worked perfectly for my card.

I think Club Scrap now needs a sheet of coffee
and tea stamps on one sheet, that would be a big
sell out I think!
And this is the last one.
Hope you had enouginspiration
to start making your own cards or scrapbook page
and link it to the Club Scrap blog.
You might win a cool prize!
Have a creative day!

Club Scrap March technique challenge: Gelatos

Here I am again with the second way of  multi-coloring
 your stamp. This time I used my gelatos:
I just cut my new Club Scrap March 50s Kitchen stamps,
so why not use them?! Take matching gelatos for
this kit and after spraying the stamp with water
color all the images with gelatos.
With one coloring,you can easily stamp twice.
It gives a beautiful watercolor look. I love it!

On top of the image I stamped one of the sentiments.
And this is the finished cards.
The other sentiment i stamped and embossed
with white embossing powder. I used a few
Homestead papers to save on my new papers
for the next project I have in mind for the
blog hop at the end of this month.

Tomorrow I have the 3rd way of multicolor stamping!
Want to know all the details? 
Visit the Club Scrap blog for the linky party with
a coolprize at the end of this month.

Have a creative day!

Club Scrap March Technique Challenge


The Club Scrap Arist Team came up with a new challenge.

and share samples and tips with you to try this technique too.

to win a cool prize at the end of the month.
Go to see the ful blog post at the  Club Scrap Blog.

Now what is the technique this month?
Multiple inks on a single stamp

You can watch a video that Tricia made
to explain this technique:


So there are 3 ways to do this technique:
1. use multiple inkpads
2.use gelatos
3 use markers

Today I share with you the first technique.
With the Spring weather all around us here in 
The Netherlands, I just had to take my tulip stamp out.
This is an old wooden stamp and much loved.
It is from May 2006 Nature's Wonders.
For this card I used:
Versaille/ Papillon papers
sentiment from Take Wing

Papers are Versaille/ Papillon
and Aspen sentiment.
Versaille papers and Up Up and Away sentiment
and background stamp.

Hope it gives you inspiration for your cards to add to the
linky party! Tomorrow I am back with oneof the
other techniques.
Yes Spring is here! This little lamb was
born last Friday (March 6) and I went to look
at it with my grandson. Sweet, right?!

Creative greetings,

Saturday Sketch card: Coffee

A new month a new sketch at the 
Club Scrap forum and it is a great one!
So I got right to it and made this card with
CS June 2014 Picnic papers
Michael Strong mini coffee cup
and CS March 2015 50s Kitchen sentiment 
I stamped and embossed the cups in various colors
matching the paper. Then I cut them out and stack
them by making a slit in the cup with a knife.
The sentiment is printed with the computer from
the digital 50s kitchen download. Ican't wait to
get my hands on the real paper and stamps.

Here the inside of the card!

Thanks for looking!

Have a creative day!
