Just another Saturday. Or not? A couple of weeks ago my husband and I were on our way home. We had done some grocery shopping and we were tired and glad that we were ready to start enjoying the weekend.  While my husband was driving the car, I sat beside him and was playing with my mobile phone. I saw ...

For today’s Sunny Sunday I’ve chosen someone who is greatly admired by colorists from all over the world, including me. Her name is Chris Cheng. I only know a little about her, nothing more than that she’s from Malaysia, left handed and that she has marvelous coloring skills. Her first videos on YouTube and pictures on Facebook date from January ...

Not so long ago I had no idea what binding discs are, nor that I would want to use them. But then I saw a tool from We R Memory Keepers: a planner punch board. I was just curious what it was, so I searched on YouTube and found an interesting video. It was about punching different kinds of holes ...

Finally the day has come that I can launch the Pre-Order SALE for my Color Charts Book! Actually I wanted to start this sale earlier, but due to a trip to the Netherlands, things had to be postponed with a couple more days. But here it is! You can now purchase your own copy of my book, with a 30% ...

Two weeks ago I announced my color charts book. And I had no idea how much work I was taking on, hahaha! My idea was a bit like ‘I’ve got all these charts, I’ll just put them together in a pdf, and voilá, there’s my book!’ But making a book, if you want to do it properly, takes time. A ...

When I made my very first color charts for myself to use, early 2016, I couldn’t imagine that I was doing something different than other people who made color charts. But apparently I DID! For several years now, my blank color charts have been used by hundreds of colorists and artists around the globe! And many requests have been made ...

A couple of days ago I received a message from Netty, asking my permission to use one of my blank color charts in a video. She said she would credit me and share a link to my website in return. It is so nice to see that there are genuinely nice people out there, that appreciate my work and politely ...

Menopausal Mood Swing Women my age (ouch, doesn’t that sound like I’m an old tart? I’m only 50! ?) most likely will know what a mood swing is… It’s part of that phenomenon that’s called ‘Menopause’. Unlike many other women, I don’t have the hot flashes (hope I’m not jinxing it now… 😛 ). Occasionally I do have night sweats, ...

As promised in the last blog, here’s a(n) (artificially) colorful post. Better late than never, right? 😛 Last month, May 10th, we went out for a pizza in our favorite restaurant of Fuengirola (Costa del Sol, Spain). [If you ever happen to visit Fuengirola, you really, absolutely must visit ‘Casa de la Pizza’ on the Paseo Marítimo, near the Stella ...

So, it took me more than a couple of days, but here it finally is. The project I’ve posted about a little while ago. I’ve been making something really special out of an old certificate and I’m so very proud of the outcome! What is it? And why is it so special? Well, let me give you a little background ...
