Another Back to School layout - featuring Bella Blvd and Amanda Robinson Studio

For this page I've used one of Amanda Robinson Studio's freebies for August: "Back to School". I really love her cut files!

In the photo you see Manon waiting for her friend to arrive, to cycle to school together (2x half an hour every day). Obviously the photo was taken last year as she's in the States right now and there's no cycling there!

I used Bella Blvd's "Sprinkles" collection for this page, love the bold colors!

I've also used one of Amanda's "Scribble Word" cut files:

I'm already looking forward to Amanda's new cut files for September!! Can't wait!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Introduction & Layout Pretty Little Studio

Because of our vacation I'm a little behind in posting my latest projects, I'm so sorry! 

Yesterday my introduction was posted on Pretty Little Studio's blog, maybe you've seen it? Here's the layout I created for it, another one in A4 format. Love how this turned out: 

I used the "Nature Walk" collection for this page. LOVE the colors and die-cuts of this one. In the photo you see Manon saying goodbye to her grandparents a week before she left for the USA for a year. 

And a few close-ups: love the use old book pages on my layouts!

Isn't the deer adorable?!!

Thanks for stopping by again today! and if you leave me a comment I'll make sure to stop by your blog too!

A quick gift bag - Imagnisce

Our family consists not only of two adults and three kids, but also of 1 dog, 2 rabbits and 50 fish and every time we go on vacation we ask ourselves "what to do with all the animals?". 

Luckily this year the solution for our two rabbits - Smiley and Muffin - was easy, our super sweet neighbour Nina said she would be home and would gladly look after them. 

So this morning I made her this little gift bag for the gift card I bought for her.

Creating this was much more fun than doing the vacation laundry, the grocery shopping etc. !! (what was what I should have done instead .... )

 

I used Imaginisce's "Welcome Spring" collection because of the 2 cute little rabbits of course. 

Hope she likes it :) .

Creative Cards Feature - Ruby Rock-It

For Ruby Rock-It's "Creative Cards" feature I was asked to create some cards (obviously, lol), but I really am not much of card maker! I find making cards so much more difficult than creating layouts and it takes me at least just as long, if not longer to make them. But of course I gave it a go and I must admit that in the end I really enjoyed making them.

For the background of these cards I thought I would pull out my punches and grabbed my hexagon and triangle punches and some Fusions papers and started punching: 

I adhered the punched hexagons and triangles on a piece of vellum and layered this on sheet of white cardstock and that on piece of wedding patterned paper. This little pile I adhered on a double folded piece of white cardstock. 

Last but not least I chose some die-cut flowers, a die-cut tag and some twine to finish it off. 

All the die-cuts I used came from this fabulous decoupage pack! 

Here's the list of supplies I used: 

Bella! CL40 Wedding Celebrate Musical

Fundamentals NFD31 - 3D Decoupage Pack

Fundamentals - FV33 Vellum A5 dots

Bella! - ON27 Yellow Fusion Damask

Bella! - ON10 Yellow Fusion Flourish

Other supplies:

American Crafts: cardstock

The Twinery: twine

Tim Holtz: tiny staples

Tools: 

Tim Holtz Tiny Attacher

American Crafts Triangle Punch

Stampin' Up Hexagon Punch

I would love to learn what you think of my cardmaking attempt!

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog. Have a great day!
