Again a little project with those gorgeous yummieh decoart products.
As a thank you for a coworker who is extremely kind and ready to help throughout the year I made a note holder.
cover front
cover back
It's from a wooden block that I painted with Americana tradidtions blue green light and media fluids phtalo green blue. Around the edges some reactive metallic paint was used to make it rusty. Then came a little bit of stamping that I covered with two step crackle, the cracks were highlighted with media fluids quin gold.
Those colours were also used to make the background for the cover, they were scraped onto cardstock with a palette knife.
Everything was sealed with media varnish utra matte and the cover was laminated.
A ring binder was also rusted and fastened with screws.
To fill the note holder I used cut up paper from my office work (upcycling is the keyword ;-)) to take notes and - separated by a postcard to color in - a stack of paper I had printed with doodle prompts.
some shots of gorgeous rust:
Thanks so much for stopping by and having a look.
Sorry for the blurred pics, I'll try to replace them with better ones as soon as possible.
Hugs, Suzanne xxx

it's a girl ... no, two girls :-)
just a quick little card for a neighbour who gave birth to twin girls ...
Afterwards I decided it would look a bit better if I stamped the little socks again, cut them out and adhered them over the stamped ones with 3d dots. Can't take a picture cause I don't have it any more.
(the images on the background are stamped with DI aged mahagony and victorian velvet, the bear with staz on timber brown. all stamps by darkroomdoor.)
Hoping to be able to do some more crafting this week ...
Thanks so much for looking.

die Geburtstagseinladung meines Sohnes / my son's birthday invitation

wir waren fleißig, mein Sohn und ich / we were busy, my son and I
mein Sohn hat eine Weihnachts-Tipi-Karte gemacht (für die Oma, die andere bekommt jetzt doch der Onkel ;o)) und eine Herbstkarte.
my son made a christmas-teepee-card and one with autumn colours.
Und ich hatte hier seit Ewigkeiten einen Hintergrund rumfliegen, der noch aus Iris' Shopthekendeko-Aktion stammt. Heute habe ich ihn ver ... äh, schandelt LOL
Der olle Hirsch wächst mir langsam ans Herz ...
I had a backgroung lying around for about ages and today I ... erm, kind of ruined it a bit, in christmas style ... LOL
I'm beginning to like the ol' stag a lot ...

ein bisschen Dies und ein bisschen Das ... / a little bit of this and a little bit of that ...
Ja, es gibt mich noch - und ich habe sogar ein bisschen was getan die Tage.
Und zwar: eine Geburtstagskarte mit Umschlag, ein Mini-TAG und ein ATC.
(und ein paar Aufträge für Weihnachtskarten von Kolleginnen *g*)
Yes, I'm still around - and I even accomplished something these days: a birthday card with an envelope, a mini-TAG and an ATC.
(and I had a few orders for x-mas-cards from coworkers *g*)
thanks for stopping by

Auf Wiedersehen / Good Bye / Au Revoir
Diesmal eine Karte zum Abschied für eine Kollegin, die uns nach vielen Jahren verlässt und in den wohlverdienten Ruhestand entschwindet. Schade auf jeden Fall ...
Ich habe mich für Briefmarken entschieden, weil sie neben anderen Aufgaben für die Post zuständig war.
This time I made a card for a coworker who just left us after many years of cooperation. Hopefully she's enjoying her well-deserved retirement.
It's a pity, anyway ...
I choose postage stamps because she's been responsible for the mail among other duties.

Geburtstagskarte für einen Kumpel von Tochter 2 / birthday card for a pal of daughter 2
Es ist gleichzeitig eine Art "Gutschein" für sein Geschenk, das er leider erst später bekommen kann - Lego.
It's kind of a gift coupon for his present which he'll get later - Lego.

*hust* "Mitgebseltüten" / goody bags
Tochter 1 feiert morgen ihren Geburtstag nach mit ihren Freunden und Freundinnen.
Ich hatte mal einen Packen Papiertüten geschenkt bekommen von Iris und später diese Möglichkeit, sie aufzuhübschen, im Netz gesehen.
Die eine Seite habe ich mit Herbstblättern bestempelt und auf der anderen Seite habe ich einen Streifen mit Tafelfarbe aufgetragen. Am oberen und unteren Rand habe ich ein Band aufgeklebt mit doppelseitigem Klebeband. Auf die Farbe können die Namen der Kinder geschrieben (und wieder abgewischt) werden. Zum Verschließen werde ich die Tüten einfach zutackern *gg*
Daughter 1 is going to have a birthday party tomorrow with her friends.
I made those little bags to put some goodies (which I'll show later perhaps *g) into. Iris gave me some of these paper bags once and I discovered an easy way to jazz them up a little on the web the other day.
One side I stamped with Darkroomdoor 'leaves'. On the other side I painted a broad strip with blackboard paint. At the top and at the bottom I adhered ribbons with double sided tape.
On the paint you can write (and remove *g*) the names of the guests with blackboard pencils. To close the bags I'll simply staple them.

Autumn
Inspired by one of Godelieve's devine artworks I tried to make my own autumn card.
Of course it doesn't achieve by any means the beautiful example, but I think it's quite a solid work for me.
The cardstock isn't really that purplish as it seems om the pic.

grüne Spitze / green lace
Diese Karte ist sowohl für Irishteddy's Challenge, wo Spitze gefragt ist, als auch für Iris' Aufruf, für ihre Shopdeko eine grüne Karte beizusteuern :-)
This card is for Irishteddy's Challenge which asks for lace, and to answer her appeal for help decorating her new shop with creating a green card. The shop is going to open on October 8th.
