Hello February!

Walk On The Wild Side

I'm pretty proud of how this kit turned out! I handdrew all the little animals, the jeep, some of the flowers and later I digitally adjusted and coloured them in with Photoshop. It's a great way to combine 2 of my hobbies, drawing and designing scrapbookitems. 

The theme for the Pixel Scrapper blogtrain for February was so cool, and all of the contributions are adorable and beautiful! If you like to download the rest of the blogtrain, head over to the Pixel Scrapper forums, you can find the list with contributors on there. 

I hope this kit will be useful to you, I think there are some pretty useful elements in it, and the colours are not too bright  and just a pretty mix of muted colours. I had fun designing everything and I think this will be one I definitely will use a lot myself. My son loves wild animals and I can see him go on a safari trip when he gets older. 😆😉

Here are the 4 parts you can dowload! If you want to grab the matching journal cards and tags, go to my Facebook group, I will post the link to that part on there. 

Have fun with this kit and please let me know what you think of it!

Happy New Year!

"And now we welcome the new year.

Full of things that have never been."

(- Rainer Maria Rilke)

First, I'm wishing all of you a very happy, healthy and of course a very creative New Year! 💥🎇🎉🎆 

2018 has been a good year for me over all, but I'm also happy to welcome 2019. I'm happy and thankful to receive so much love and friendship from so many great people in my life, to have a good health and so many good things to look forward to int the new year. I'm also happy to be able to keep creating, for you digiscrappers out there, but also for myself and others who like my paintings, drawings, jewellery etc. I just love being creative and I couldn't do without it. 

But now, here's to the real news of today; 

This is my participation in the January Pixel Scrapper blogtrain, called Science Fiction. 

You can find the other blogtrain parts here on the Pixel Scrapper forum.

I struggled a bit creating this, but I think it turned out ok, it's definitely not as big a kit as the last one, and I don't think it's my best kit either, but in the end I do like it and especially the little aliens (who are VERY friendly and only come visiting us in Peace ✌👽) and UFO's are pretty cute. 

I hope you can use all of it with your pictures, have fun creating some extraterrestrial layouts! 👽

Merry Christmas everbody!

At last! 

Here are the two last additional parts of the Retro Holly Jolly kit. The plan was to upload them seperately, but I have no idea when I'll have the time the next few days, so I'm going to share them both at once, here on the blog.

I think this will be the last time I'll be posting before the holidays, so I really would like to take time to thank all of you who have been downloading my kits the last couple of months. It's been wonderful to do some digital designing again, and I'm sure I'm going to keep doing it, for sure when the busy festive days are over and I'll have some time to sit down and start designing a new kit. I already have some ideas and of course I'll be participating in the next Pixel Scrapper blogtrain, with the Science Fiction theme. I finished it a while ago, and I struggled a lot with this one! I'm pretty satisfied with how it turned out, but I think it's not my best work though, haha. I actually love Science Fiction, but somehow I found it very hard to translate it in some useful stuff for a scrapbooking kit. 

A little reminder for you as well; both Free Spirit kits will be taken down next weekend, so you better be fast if you still like to download it. 

For now, I'm wishing everyone a very merry Christmas. I hope you can all relax for a while and enjoy the festive days, like we're going to do (hopefully).   

I'll be back on one of the last days of this year for the blogtrain post, so be sure to check in then. 😉

Season's Greetings! 

🎇🎄🎅🎄🎇

Hello December!

And yes, December's here. Great times ahead with the holidays, and of course for digiscrapping. 

The second blogtrain I joined on Pixel Scrapper is a good old-fashioned Christmas kit. The colours are beautiful, muted and pastel. 

I loved this theme so much, although I had a hard time getting into the Holly Jolly mood, but that was only because it still was October when I started designing it and the weather was way too sunny and too warm to think of winter and Christmas. 

I think the kit turned out really cute, I love the penguin I drew, and although I don't think there are a lot of 'retro' items in this kit, it is still very useful for your Christmas photos. 

The other thing I found somewhat difficult, was to stop designing. 😂 The kit has become way too big to join the blogtrain, so I had to split it up in different parts. The first parts are for the Pixel Scrapper blogtrain, the other parts will be available on my blog and Facebook group during the month of December. If you don't want to miss out, just check my blog regularly and I will let you know when and where to get it. 

For now, here is my contribution for the Pixel Scrapper Blogtrain, I hope you like it and that you can make beautiful Christmas layouts with it. 

You can find the rest of the blogtrain here on the Pixel Scrapper Forums. 

Happy Holidays everyone!

Are you in the mood for Christmas yet?

Retro Holly Jolly spoiler 😉 

Oh my, it's almost December. This year went by so fast, I can hardly get my head around it that Christmas is around the corner, yet again.  

Today I have a little spoiler for you, a preview of my kit Retro Holly Jolly. 

It contains the Pixel Scrapper blogtrain contribution and the extended versions for my blog and Facebook group, which makes it a very large Christmas kit. 

The first parts will be available on December 1st, and during December I will upload the other parts, so stay tuned for that! 

Also stay tuned for the other part of the Free Spirit kit, which will be released this week too. 

SPOILER:👀❤✌

Just a note..

I just wanted to say thanks to all of you who downloaded my kit Family Traditions, I'm really glad you like it! 

Then I noticed that the downloadlinks on Mediafire for the 'Say Boo' kit aren't working (well), so I've transferred the files to Google Drive and now you can download them there. I fixed the links in the post for October 31st so go there if you haven't managed to get it, you can now give it another try.  I'm kinda proud of this kit, it was a great one to work on and I think it turned out pretty cute, so I really love sharing it with you. It will be available until November 14th, so get it while you can. ;-)

Anyway, that's all for today. I'll be back soon with another cute freebie, so stay tuned. Have a great weekend everyone!

Family Traditions

Hello November! 

This is my first contribution for a blogtrain on the forums of Pixel Scrapper. The theme was 'Family Traditions' and I didn't find it very easy. In Holland we don't have Thanksgiving or anything and using a typical Dutch tradition isn't really useful for all the (mostly) American scrappers. 

So I kept it basic, making use of the colour palette, with elements and papers that will be of use for anyone with a family, friends or pets.. really. 😉

The rest of the blogtrain is really amazing, and very divers! It's nice to see how one theme can be translated in so many different ways. If you'd like to grab the other parts of this blogtrain, go to the Pixel Scrapper forums and you'll find a list of all the contributions. 

The next blogtrain will be a Christmas themed one, and I've already started designing (a few weeks ago already, lol)! It's so much fun to do, the colour palette is amazing and the theme is Retro Holly Jolly. So it will be a fun kit over all I guess! I know my part will be a big one, or for download available in many parts, on the forums and on here, because well... it's a Christmas kit and I like to bring gifts. For now, here is the minikit of Family Traditions. The download button will direct you to the Dropbox download links. 

I hope you like it!
