Mother’s Day Card

Hi everyone, today it’s Mother’s Day in the Netherlands, so I can show you the card that I created for my mother (since she has now received it)!

Wintry Birthday Card

Hi everyone, today I would like to show you another quick, fun, masculine and wintry birthday card! It contains some colouring, a bit of stamping and then you can already put this card together.

Altered Pictureframes

Hi everyone, today I’m on the Colourstock Blog with an altered pair of picture-frames. This particular set was created as a, what we Dutch call, “Sinterklaas-surprise“, comparable to a Christmas present if you like. I started with a pair of picture-frames from the dollarstore / Action (for everyone living in Europe) and they looked like this: Step 1: To prepare the surface of the frames for my later work I added two coats of The Crafter’s Workshop “White Gesso“ using a brush.
