About my take at this dare...

This came easy to me... Love, love, love Mandy's bag. It kind of represents everything I like in design at this moment. It has gorgeous colours, straight lines, and a lot of swirls and flourishes.

The colours inspired me most of all, and so did the shine this cute bag has (I used paperglaze at the swirls and big dots). While going to my pile of patterned papers I came across this beautiful paper by Tinkering Ink along with the bazzill background it perfectly matched my photo. Swirls are by Fancy pants, tittle lettering is new Basic Grey, coloured black to match my lo. Thanks for visiting! Regards, Mirjam

Story behind "Let it be"

About one year ago i did a fun workshop by Elsie Flannigan. An 8x8 songbook, layouts inspired by songs. I finished 1 out of the 20 pages during that workshop ;) So one year later i'm still going... Every now and then i grasp te opportunity to make one more. This time it is "Let it be" with pics from loooong ago... I did a study that was so much fun, it included creative subjects like drawing, crafts, music and theatre. For the musiclesson we all chose to play an instrument (me on guitar LOL) and perform a song. You got bonus study-points if you gave it a little extra. Extra study-points rock. Cuz that meant the opportunity to be a little more lazy on subjects that were less interesting ;) So we did the full thing, dress up and all, who cares if you look stupid right? The pics were actually of very poor quality, so i've had them on a stack for...um...12 years. Scrapping them on 8x8 meant i could crop a whole lot out of the photo's hehe. Supplies are: PC paper, paintdabber, AC thickers, flowers: prima, Sue Dreamer and Blokker, Posca paintpen. Hambly rub-on. Printed the journaling on PC ribbon. Thanks for taking the time to drop by! xoMandy

Dare # 22

Er is zoveel inspiratie om ons heen te vinden! Mandy kocht deze tas omdat ze er helemaal blij van werd toen ze hem zag (ok en hij kostte maar 3 euro nog wat ;). We dagen je uit om deze tas te gebruiken als inspiratie voor een layout of project…op welke manier dan ook! Als je niet zoveel met de kleuren hebt, dan kun je je laten inspireren door de vormen erop, of het patroon/design. Veel plezier! We kijken uit naar je creatie! Als je wilt meedingen voor een RAK, zorg er dan voor dat we je project of layout zien via deze LINK op 2 peas. Als je hem per mail stuurt naar: dutchdares@memorylanescrapbooking.net, dan plaatsen we hem daar in de gallery van Memory Lane Scrapbooking.

There is so much inspiration to be found everywhere around us! Mandy bought this bag because it made her happy just looking at it! (Ok and it was only 3 euro’s ;) We dare you to use it as inspiration for a layout... feel totally free! If the colors don’t work for you, maybe you find inspiration in the shapes of the different elements on it, or the pattern/design. Whatever you do, have fun!
We’d love to see what you come up with! If you want to play along for a RAK, be sure that we can find your project by leaving a comment here on the blog or via this LINK op 2 peas.

Unexpected fabric!

Lovely idea the fabric dare! But I had no inspiration... It didn't work out... But unexpected I had an idea this morning so I decided to post it an hour after I've finished it!

This photo was taken last holiday in June. We visited an oldtimer tractor show and Arvid had a blast! He loves vehicles and especially the wheels. I used a square piece of fabric, ribbon and CherryArte chipboard and 7Gypsies stamps (my favorites!) Tomorrow next Dare will be online!

My little story behind...

First of all, I love printing on fabric. Not every picture, but specially older ones, and I found this. My husband with his two sisters (1973). Not a picture with lots of technique, difficult poses or with the idea "this one has to be scrapped"...But this picture brings back memories of long time ago. The "klapstoeltje" (chair) with the pattern of the "fabeltjeskrant" and did you recognize the leather "poef"... I bet you did...











My MIL gave me a lot of years ago these lovely things and you can find it on the walls in our house...





I love it... brings back memories.











...so here it is, my take on the dare, the circles made of leather and felt and of course I used hambly...

...and please, don't throw little precious things too fast away!!!

the story behind 'friendship blanket'

Our twin friends (and also masters of ceremony at our wedding) arranged something very special to give to us on our weddingday... Before the wedding they asked our family and friends to send in a 8x8 piece of fabric that symbolises their specific relationship with us. They stitched them all to a large blanket. Along with it they made a book and on each page there was a tiny piece of fabric with a story or a sweet message for that familymember or friend. It contains the sweetest, the funniest and most heartwarming wishes and story's that will never be forgotten. It is without a doubt the most beautiful gift anybody could have given us! At the time suddenly there was the sound of the piano playing and two other friends started singing a song they had written themselves about us and the blanket, it still gives me goosebumps, so beautiful. So when Jo-Anne's fabric dare came along it was the perfect chance to scrap about this! The 30x30 background is a piece of soft suede and the chipboard letters are from Provocraft and have a velvetty kind of layer on them. Others are random pieces of fabric and the chipboard is Fancy Pants. The ribbons are by Making Memories. Thanks for reading and don't miss the next Dutch Dare on wednesday sep 12th! Oh and... it's Danielle's birthday today, would be fun if you go over to her blog and wish her a happy birthday... luv, Mandy
