In Naam Van Oranje

In The Netherlands each year we celebrate “King’s Day” on April 27. It is our King’s birthday and it’s a national holiday. Most people are dressed in Orange, our national color, and go outdoors to flee markets, festivals or other activities that are being organized to celebrate.

Because our national color is Orange I wanted to do an Orange scrapkit, but because only Orange was a bit boring I added some greenery and some Light Blue to make it look a bit more sunnery. The lion is in our national coat of arms, so had to be part of the scrapkit.

This collection is on sale with 30% off until May 7.

From Holland With Love & Challenge

Our world has turned upside down in just a short period of time due to the Corona Virus. People are asked or even forced to stay in their homes and to avoid contact with other people as much as possible. The Netherlands is not completely in lock-down (yet), but bars, restaurants, schools and more and more stores are closed and we all don’t know how long it will take. This uncertainty can drive us crazy.

Besides working from home I love to spend my time on designing now even more, I am so happy to have designing as a hobby, so I won’t get bored so quickly now and I hope I make other people happy with my designs.

To also help you to get you through the days I have designed a scrapkit for you and it’s free. I have named it “From Holland With Love”, the colors are Dutch Blue. Because we are all dealing with the same situation right now, wherever you live, I think we are more united than ever and wanted to sent my love to you all, so “From Holland With Love”.

You can click on the image to download the kit.
