Here are the newest projects.

I’ve become an aunt again, and – the same as last time – I made the birth announcement cards. They are 60 cards from handmade paper, with baby clothes on a washing line and – a special request from my other nephew – a ‘pluche’ elephant. The cards are about 65 percent recycled milk cartons. Both the paper on the back and the envelopes are made from Biotop paper. The information card on the back is fastened to the front with two buttons. The sticker seals were created with a homemade stamp and acrylic paint. I took the colors I used from the baby blanket Nolan’s mother made for him.

A custom ordered guestbook for a 10 year anniversary party. The book is 30 cm wide and 40 cm tall. It has 40 exchangeable pages and is bound with three 6 cm book screws! The letters on the front cover are glued in an enlarged inlay. The image on the front cover is a silkscreen by Ronald Boumans.

A custom ordered gift to the happy couple from the mother of the groom. She requested the color gold as a symbol for the wedding rings and ‘red roses’ as it was the wedding theme. The wedding album has a frame on the front cover to hold a picture of the newlyweds. I made two tiny ornamental books to complement the big one. It was my first time working with the color gold on this scale!
