Kraft & Grey

Hi there,
Here I am again with some DT work from MyStampBox.
Long gone are the days when grey and kraft brown were the colors of drab and dreary. Now these colors are the hottest neutrals in the craft and fashion industries!
All the DT members made a layout or card with some Kraft paper.  This is what I made:

Sorry for the bad picture but I took the picture while it was already dark outside :-(

Love, Isolde

Embossing

Here we are again with some fun projects from the DT of My Stamp Box.  We had to create a card, layout, deco stuff, ... with some embossing on it.

I created this baby room home decor thing:

I used 2 stamp sets: Colourful compagnions and Zomaar - Dutch sentiments

If you want to see the other wonderful projects, just go to the Blog

Have a wonderful Sunday!!
Love,
Isolde

Road trip

Hi there,

Hi there,
Hope you are enjoying wonderful spring weather! We finally have nice weather in Belgium. It’s so welcome as it has been raining or grey sky during the past 3 weeks, yikes! Oh well, it was perfect weather to scrap.
I made a layout about a buggy tour we did on vacation in the Dominican Republic. We had an amazing time and were covered with mud when arrived back at the hotel. We saw amazing nature, beautiful beaches, drank coconut milk, …
The stamp set Road Trip was perfect for this layout!

In honor of St-Patrick's Day

My weekly 2012 - week 1 - 4

After a long thought I decided to play along with Armance and her weekly 2012.  She made a beautiful template.  It's clean and simple and gives you the opportunity to write some lines too.  I'm totally in love with it.

Here are the first 4 weeks of 2012.  I'm so sorry for the bad pictures but it's already 7 pm and dark outside.  The paper I use is creme colour and not grey, white or anything else that you would think when you look at my photos.  It's just normal cardstock :-)

Anyone else who is making a weekly journal too?

CHA releases from My Stamp Box + a giveaway

Hi everyone,
