About Marga
Location: Nistelrode, The Netherlands
A Little About Me: I am Marga, married to John, and we have two children, two grandchildren, and two dogs. I got sick at a young age, and suddenly, I was at home all day, and the days were so long. And then, I started looking into what I would like to do with all that time. Well, I discovered that I really enjoyed doing a lot. I started making dolls. Then, Pergamano and 3D card making, Calligraphy, etc. Until I suddenly discovered stamping and coloring, then a world opened up for me. When I also discovered the dies, well, the journey of discovery was complete.
That's why I feel so much at home in the Elizabeth Craft Designs design team; I like art journaling and making planner pages, but I also enjoy the stamps and dies in the Cute & Whimsical, Everyday Elements and Paper Flowers collection. I love to make it all
My Favorite Project
Project Title: Art Journal Book
Why It’s My Favorite: I found it very difficult to choose one favorite project because I really have a few that I love, so it was a bit of a search to pick just one... But one of my last favorites was my Art journal that I made myself with the Journal Romance special kit. You can go all out in Art Journaling; nothing is mandatory, and everything is allowed
Craft Tip or Must-Have Tool
My Favorite Crafting Tool or Tip: I have a few tools that I really can't do without, and some I have twice. I have two of the tweezers and the Fine-Pointed Scissors from Elizabeth Craft Designs. I also have a pair of Pergamano scissors, which are no longer made, and a very nice thin knife. I like having backups for when a loved item is no longer available.
TIP:
My craft tip is to do what you enjoy. Use the tools that suit you. But above all, enjoy what you do.
A Peek Into My Craft Space
About My Craft Space: My Craft space is a private room that is really full. It is so full that outside this room, I also have crafts in another room and the attic. But after more than 40 years of collecting and having a lot of fun, that's not surprising. But it's just nice that it's your own place where you can enjoy yourself.
