Christmas Tag

Christmas tag is the challenge at Theme Thursday today. A card with a tag is also allowed, so I created my final Christmas card for this year with a small tag.

Merry Christmas everybody!

Christmas tag is de challenge van Theme Thursday. Een kaart met een tag mocht ook, dus mijn laatste kerstkaart van dit jaar gemaakt met een kleine tag erop.

Fijne kerstdagen!

TMTA - Waiting for Santa

This week we are waiting for Santa at Think Monday - Think ATC. I created this atc a few weeks ago for a moo swap of a Dutch stamp group.

Deze week wachten we op de Kerstman bij Think Monday - Think ATC. Ik heb deze atc een paar weken geleden gemaakt voor een moo swap van de Creative Chaos stempelgroep.

TMTA - Seeing Red

Everything is looking red this week at Think Monday - Think ATC. Nice theme, managed to create two ATCs.

Deze week is alles rood bij Think Monday - Think ATC. Leuk thema, zelfs twee ATCs gemaakt.

TMTA - Angel

(not for trading)
This week's challenge at Think Monday Think ATC is to make an ATC with angels. Today I borrowed this angel stamp from a good friend of mine, Jacqueline. After a very busy workshop with Leandra of PaperArtsy, the angel inspired me to this beautiful piece of art.

Deze week bij Think Monday Think ATC maken we een atc met een engel. Ik heb deze stempel vandaag mogen lenen van een goede vriendin van mij, Jacqueline. Na een volle workshop van Leandra van PaperArtsy heeft deze engel mij geinspireerd om dit kunstwerkje te maken.

TMTA - Staples

Deze random act of art is mijn bijdrage voor Think Monday - Think ATC deze week. Ik heb een compositie gemaakt met aantal Tim Holtz stempels, de kaart ingekleurd met verschillende Adirondack inkten, en twee nietjes gebruikt om een lintje vast te maken.

This random act of art is my contribution for Think Monday - Think ATC this week. I made a composition with several Tim Holtz stamps, coloured the card with Adirondack inks, and used two staples to attach a ribbon.

TMTA - Coffee

My favourite drink, coffee, should be the subject of our ATCs for Think Monday - Think ATC. That is not a problem, I have gathered some coffee stamps. With enough cafeine I could rule the world, but never bother me before my first cup!

Mijn favoriete drank, koffie, is het onderwerp van de ATCs deze week bij Think Monday - Think ATC. Geen probleem, ik heb al aardig wat koffie-stempels verzameld. With enough cafeine I could rule the world, maar laat me met rust zolang ik mijn eerste kop koffie nog niet heb gehad.

Coffee and Friends

De uitdaging van deze week bij Theme Thursday is om een 4x4 kaart te maken met als thema vrienden. Een nooie gelegenheid voor de stempel Coffee and friends are the perfect blend. De achtergrond is gemaakt met de alcohol inkten espresso en butterscotch.

This week's challenge of Theme Thursday is to make a 4x4 card using friends as the theme. An excellent opportunity to do something with the Coffee and friends are the perfect blend stamp. The background is made with alcohol inks espresso and butterscotch.

Thanks for visiting!

TMTA - Handwriting

Het thema van Think Monday - Think ATC van deze week is Handschrift. Dit thema gaf me mooi de gelegenheid een aantal stempels te gebruiken die ik op de Stempel-Mekka gekocht heb. De stempel 'Travel' had ik al en is handgeschreven.

This week's theme of Think Monday - Think ATC is hadwriting. This theme offered me the opportunity to use some stamps I bought at the Stempel-Mekka last weekend. The Travel stamp is handwritten.

TMTA - Dancing

This week's theme at Think Monday Think ATC is Dancing. This lovely pair loves to dance on old music!

Het thema van deze week bij Think Monday Think ATC is dansen. Dit paar houdt van dansen op oude muziek!

Moo swap

Ik ben lid van de yahoo groep Creative Chaos, een Nederlandse stempelgroep voor atc en scenery liefhebbers. Deze maand wordt er een swap georganiseerd van moo-kaartjes. Deze drie heb ik voor de swap gemaakt en vandaag opgestuurd.

TMTA - Architecture

Deze week weer tijd om mee te doen met Think Monday - Think ATC. Het thema is architectuur. Deze stempel leek me hiervoor erg geschikt. De achtergrond is gemaakt met Derwent potloden.

This week I managed to join the challenge of Think Monday - Think ATC again. This stamp fits nicely into this week's theme: architecture. The background I made using Derwent colour pencils.

TMTA - Dog days

Hondsdagen zijn de dagen tussen 19 juli en 18 augustus, de warmste periode van het jaar. De hondsdagen staan deze week centraal bij Think Monday - Think ATC. Dus heb ik een ATC gemaakt met veel zonnen en juli en augustus helemaal blauw.

Dog days refer to the hottest days of summer, between mid-July to mid-August. Dog days are the theme of Think Monday - Think ATC. So I created an ATC with many suns and july and august in blue.

TMTA - Turquoise

Toevallig vorige week ook al een atc met turquoise gemaakt. De achtergrond van deze atc is helemaal turquoise. De stempels van Dali (Cherry Pie Art Stamps) heb ik pas dit weekend gekocht. Deze opdracht van Think Monday Think ATC is een mooie gelegenheid om ze direct te kunnen gebruiken.

I already used turquoise in last week's atc. The background of this atc is totally turquoise. I bought the Dali stamps (Cherry Pie Art Stamps) this weekend. This theme of Think Monday Think ATC gives a great opportunity to use them immediately.

TMTA - Open your eyes

Think Monday - Think ATC asked us to open our eyes this week. My interpretation is an ATC in Dutch. The sentiment reads: eyes open keep discovering. In other words, never stop looking at and wondering about the world around us.

TMTA Nostalgia 2

(not for trading)I really like the Nostalgia theme of TMTA this week. The beautiful lady on this ATC is my mother back in 1962. She is currently in hospital, and she will get this little present on a get well soon! card this weekend.

Real gentlemen

This week's theme at Think Monday - Think ATC is nostalgia. The gentlemen on this ATC are from PaperArtsy, one of the first stamps I bought, and one of my favourites. The clock is from Artdeclassified. Thank you for looking.

TMTA - Games

(traded to Nancy) This week's theme at Think Monday - Think ATC was games. The basis of this ATC is a stamp of Stampers Anonymous full of games.

Just Married

(not for trading)
Theme Thursday asked us to make a card with the theme 'Love, Romance, Weddings'. I made this ATC using a photo of our wedding. Hope you like it!

TMTA Colourful

This week's theme of TMTA is colourful. The two ATCs I created are as colourful as I could get!

TMTA: Stone

Earlier this year, we went to an exhibition of the famous Terra Cotta Army. It was very impressive. So, when TMTA asked to make something with stone this week, I immediately knew which stamp to use.

Chinatown tour ticket

This week's theme at Think Monday - Think ATC is tickets.
The background of this ATC is made with scrap paper, the car is a Stampers Anonymous stamp, the gentlemen are from PaperArtsy.
Google came up with this Chinatown tour ticket during the Panama-Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco
back in 1915.

Theme Thursday - Hats

I was looking for more challenges, and came across Theme Thursday. This week's theme was Hats, and I immediately knew what the ATC would look like. This is the result. The background is made with Metallic Silver Adirondack Dabber, over which I used Oregano and Butterscotch alcohol inks. The stamps and German Scrap are from PaperArtsy. The butterfly was found in one of the embellishment drawers.

TMTA - Hands

This week's theme on Think Monday - Think ATC was a real challenge! The theme was to show creations and ideas on hands. It appeared that I only have two stamps with hands, the pointing hand is a rub-on. So I definitively need more hands!

TMTA - Round

Dit is de ATC die ik gemaakt heb voor het thema rond van Think Monday - Think ATC.

The ATC I made for the Think Monday - Think ATC theme Round.
