Dear visitor,

My name is Gerda Van Hove. I'm living in Malderen (Belgium) and I am married with Leon. I am the mother of a son (Iwan) and a daughter (Noëmie).

On this sit I would like to show you som of my creative hobbies which became a real passion for me during the last years. For example, I design greeting cards and also like to adapt illustrations or pictures in Paint Shop Pro.

I'm a member of a fanfare in which I exercise my musical hobby once a week. As learning to ply music was a late vocation for me; I start playing the alto 10 years ago.

When I'm designing my cards, I try to use as many different techniques as possible. I prefer to embroider, dry embossing, punching. I love to work with themes like: birthday, wedding, children etc... From every card I make a picture so that I can share my work and ideas with you on the internet.

Paint Shop Pro is a user-friendly program with lots of possibilities. From different PSP-groups at Yahoo, I learned how to use this software an since a while I've switched over to "blending lessons".

It is my intention to update my site regularly with new cards and PSP-creations.

For questions you can mail me, comments are welcome in my guestbook.
