Debs - Our visitor from Peterborough in the UK

Good Morning and welcome to Besties UK ... we are so happy you could visit, today we have a visitor from the Besties international team Debs ..... please give her a very warm welcome ....


Hi, I am Debs, a Mother of 2 grown up boys and Grandmother of 2 and a retired Nurse.  I started crafting more than 20 years ago and got hooked when my children were babies.  I enjoy knitting, cross stitch, crochet, water colouring and card making. 

 
As we all do, I have a passion for My Besties and am in admiration of Sherri Ann Baldy's endless talent.   Before they were showcased in the UK recently I was convinced they would take off in a big way due to all the reasons we love them.  I wish her luck with that venture.
 
I enjoy very much being part of the DT and look forward to seeing all your work and to continue sharing my projects in the near future.  Hope you like!

Nicolette - Our guest from the Netherlands

Good morning we would like to welcome a special guest to the Besties UK blog today - Nicolette from the Dutch Besties Design team ...


Hello everybody!

I’m very proud to be guest designer here with the English Bestie Girls and boy! It’s an honour. My name is Nicolette Vlaardingerbroek, I'm 41 years old and I live in the middle of the Netherlands with my supportive husband Colin and our two gorgeous daughters Liselot and Nienke. They are nine and six years old. Especially Nienke loves to craft with me in my beloved craft room. Two days a week I work as a teacher in primary school.

I started scrapbooking around seven years ago. In the beginning I made 12” by 12” layouts with photo’s. Later mini-albums followed and a year and a little more ago I started making cards! I always color my images with Copic Markers. I love the combination of those things although making cards is growing and growing. I'm proud to be a 'Dutch Bestie Girl' since a few months now. I love to be part of this team. I also design for MicheleRDesign. 





Here are some of my cards. For more cards and other creations, feel free to visit my blog. 


If you have any questions, I'm pleased to answer those.

Thank you very much for letting me be a guest designer at the My Besties UK challenge blog. I really appreciate it!

Hugs Nicolette x

Corrie - Our visitor from Hellevoetsluis

Good Morning and welcome to our Besties UK blog... we have a special visitor today - Corrie and we would like to give her a very warm welcome to the UK ...


CORRIE (5 weken )
Hello everyone,
I am very pleased that I am invited to tell something about myself on the UK Bestie blog. Let me introduce myself.
My name is Corrie van der Velde and I am living in the beautiful town Hellevoetsluis. I am a mother of two children and grandmother of Noa, a sweet little babygirl, who is almost 7 months now. Since May 2014 I have been chosen to be a designer of My Besties Dutch Girls Designs. My daughter Cindy is also a member of this team and we
 

are crafting together for a long time. Knitting, sewing, card embroidery are some of the things I also like to do, as long as I am busy with my hobby.Card making has started with decoupage but at this moment I am a great fan of coloring images with my copics. The Besties are so great to color and it is so much fun to do. At this moment I am addicted to making cards. Every minute of spare time I used for cardmaking. Here are a few of my creations with the Besties. They are so lovely! Have I made you curious, take a look at my blog http://chvandervelde.blogspot.nl. I hope you come all over and visit my Besties Dutch Girls designs. 

Hugs, Corrie
