As I carved a beetle stamp of course the next project could only be a (T2) Bus stamp! And here it is! But the beetle is too big compared to the bus and as many bus owners also own a beetle (like we do) I made a smaller version of the beetle to accompany the bus :D
I love them so much, here they are all together:
I also made this cute handstamped notebook with the big beetle stamp.
It's Thursday the 5th! Time to select the winner of the free printable. And it is......Number 7!
Made by KK, congratulations! I have send you an email.
This weekend I received these wonderful handmade items from Marlies from Marliese. It was for the 'Shop Swap & Blog' Swap at Swap-bot. There is a personalized notebook (with a Z!) and I loooove the wood grain stickers.
At her shop she sells handbound books, hand stamped stickers (with really cool wood grain) and some super cute kawaii craft supplies. So go check out all those cute goodies!

This is going to be a rather big post, because there is so much cuteness going on in my shop right now . And for many reasons (1. holiday season is coming / 2. I've got a new job / 3. It's Samhain; the Celtic new year ;) I'm in a giving mood.

So , here is the new stuff:
I promised kitty would be featured on a new stamp so here she is. She is slightly smaller to fit the big mounts, but that makes here totally cute.
Well, it’s very obvious that this stamps was coming some day and now it’s finally here! The one and only handmade Beetle stamp! I’m totally in love with this one! It’s also very cool to ink the wheels black and the rest in colour - of course in red ;)
And there is another new creature in shop; a cute and cuddly fox. He is featured in a set of greeting cards and in my first stamped artwork! It stands in my living room for now and it looks so very wonderful. At first I wasn't going to sell this one, but because it would look lovely in a kidsroom I think it should have a place in my shop… (more hand stamped artwork coming soon)
And some more new items:
* valid at http://www.little-z.nl/ except products from 'zelf maak pakketjes' and commissioned products.
There is a bunch of new cuteness in shop. First of all there is a new creature: a cute little kitty. She appears on greetingcards and (new!) gift tags. Doesn't she look cute? These greeting cards are part of sets of two cards, also featuring the new stamp designs cloud, sheep, buttons and pencils.

To my DaWanda shop
I came across this wonderful vintage ribbon. It is for sale at West of the Sun, my other (brand new) shop with all sorts of wonderful (mostly vintage) finds.
I received an award from Jorna. Thank you very much! I will not send the award to other people (as I received ‘too many’ awards lately) but I will tell 10 things about myself.
1. I have a new job as web editor (heard it just yesterday)!
2. I love 'pepernoten' but I think I should wait buying them untill 'Sinterklaas' is (almost) here
3. I like autumn and winter, especially the cold and sunny days
4. I work three days in a normal job and I spend about 1 or 2 days on http://www.little-z.nl/
5. My (recent) favorite color is petrol blue
6. My other favorite colors are gray, purple, blues and greens (especially the grayish hues)
7. I wear more short skirts when it’s colder so I can wear tights under them, because I don’t like my short, white legs. (So I loooove long skirts in summer)
8. I like to drink red wine
9. I love watching movies, alone or with friends (but always with a glass of red wine)
10. I love reading books, especially fairytales, fantasy and horror (but I don’t like the typical fantasy sequences)
A few weeks ago I had to go to a meeting for my work and surprise -surprise! It was next to the Ikea. I looooove Ikea for their fabrics (amongst many other things).
So...after all the talking was done I hurried to Ikea and did some good old shopping. The (new) collection of fabrics is really gorgeous so I picked up this lovely blue flowered fabric and some matching dark blue. Last Sunday was a nice and (bit) rainy day; time to make a new cushion (I love making those; a quick and thankful job).
Normally I use zippers for closure but I wanted to try something different (and easier) and I must say; this works perfectly! Although I planned on not using buttons I’ve miscounted the amount of overlay you need for this closure. But, after all I just love that big, wooden button up there…
I got these grapes last Saturday from Annelore, one of my crafty-friends. They are from her garden and I asked her to add some leaves too. Don't know why I asked that besides it looks cool and natural. But yesterday after washing and laying them in a bowl I figured why...because it looks great in a picture ;)
