Hi my name is Veerle and I live in a rural area in Belgium.

I’m 48 years old and as long as I can remember I have been crafting one way or another.

I was always bussy creating I’ve always had a very vivid imagination a real day dreamer too.

Wrote little stories as a kid. But card making is kinda new to me as I only started card making in 2013.

It started with ready to make kits just putting everything together you know.

Then added embroidering and 3D images. On august 29th 2013 I published my first blog post thanks to a friend who

made a blog for me and from then on it all went fast, very fast. I started searching the net for new techniques added my own

twists. And in october 2014 I gave my first workshops on a hobby fair and this past february on the big craft fair in Antwerp I had my very own boot.

In the mean while I also give workshops at home. Crafting is my everything and I love to make my own backgrounds.

I just love to start with white paper and make everything myself. It has been a speedy journy so far and who knows what else the future has in store

for me. I also have the honour of being DT for 3 different teams and I love being on the teams.

Thanks for watching and I wish you all a lot of crafting fun.

Veerle



Thank you so much for two beautiful cards Veerle!

City Crafter Challenge Blog Week 302 ~ I'm Working on my PhD

Hello crafters, I don't know about you, but I often started a project, and then lost my mojo, so the project would sit somewhere in my craft room, often time, I have more than one project lying silently with tears in a dark corner......

So, today I am working on my PhD (Project Half Done), will you join me please?

Dig out a project that was half way done and complete it!

~ Kirsty

Hello! My name is Evy and i'm a teacher/crafter. I live in a small town in the east of Belgium. I'm single, but that makes it much more easier to hord craft-supplies ;-) I've been drawing since the moment i could hold a pencil. Cardmaking is something i've learned, when my little sister had to make her own Christmas-cards with tea-bags at school. I went from tea-bags to 3D, from 3D to stamping, and haven't stopped making cards ever since. 



I like experimenting with all kinds of techniques and materials an love watching you-tube-tutorials. There's only one thing that 'll never change: i like lots of color!



I'd like to thank the amazing DT for having me this week as a guest designer! If you want to see more of my cards, come and visit me: http://artsandeve.blogspot.com Can't wait to see all of your creations!




Such beautiful work Evy!

Please stop by Evy's blog to say hello!

Special Guest Star

Andie Miller


-->
Hello City Crafters!  Andie Miller here again for my last week as a guest designer.  The weeks have flown by and I hope that means you know a little about me. If not, please stop by my blog, Contagiously Crafty, located at viralscrap.blogspot.com. I've so enjoyed being here with all of you and the lovely, kind comments received and given over the weeks.  I'm going to finish strong and hope that this card is an inspiration to you.  I'll sure try to hop around to your blogs and leave a comment.  All the lovely creations with such different takes on the challenges has inspired me to be more adventuresome in my crafting.   Thank you so much to the City Crafters for asking me to be a guest here this month.  I am truly honored to be among such a diverse and creative group. 

My project this week was inspired by the polka dots in the image and the challenge.  I considered going the route of a baby card.  However, I've no need for a baby card so I found some embossed paper in the stash and let a little watercoloring into the picture (soft like the inspiration, yes?!).  It's my last week - I'm looking forward to the WOW that has occurred each and every week as I see what your take on the challenge looks like.  Now - go get crafting!

This is our final week to have Andie as our special guest star, we want to send a big THANK YOU over to you Andie, thanks for being our fabulous guest star for the month of February!


  You can follow Andie's blog and continue to visit her for her wonderful creation!
