Our new greeting cards have arrived!

Many hours of hard work have at last came to an end! Our new greeting cards are now in store at  The Town House . And we are very thankful. It took a whole team of fine experts to deliver such fine quality greeting cards!





Many many hours of fun drawings and dreams and ideas came to life in these cards while spending time either at our desks or spending time together in the living room. If you love greeting cards as much as we do, visit the beautiful and elegant Shop - The Town House in Mossel Bay.

Bible journaling

 One of my most favourite things to do is to spend time with Jesus. This is how I like to start my day early in the morning. A conversation starts which will be ongoing throughout the day between me and Jesus. Later after breakfast I sit with my children and the conversation draws them in as well. Me and my husband can go on like this for hours. We just love to talk with Jesus! And my favourite part is how He is always part of every conversation. 

We all love to be creative, especially me and my daughter. Because I love the Word so much I started looking for more ways to use my creativity to make things born out of what inspires me and that is why I started making Bible journaling pages. 

Bible journaling on joy

Jesus Bible journaling page

All my Bible journaling pages are born out of my own time in the Word. I draw from what I learn from Jesus and share it with others in a creative way. Sometimes there goes a bit of research into the history and culture of the Bible and it gets really interesting. I am always excited about every new thing I learn through revelation.

I would also like to hear what you think about Bible journaling. If you want to leave a message about your thought on the subject.

We are working on new greeting cards and other delightful things!

 Nikita and me are currently working on new greeting cards and other delightful little stationary gifts. With Christmas not too far in the future we are also busy making lovely Christmas cards and other related things.


This is Nikita’s new bookmarks that will soon go to our stand in The Town  House.

I have been working on this little watercolour cards for which I still need to make envelopes. They are painted on watercolour paper. I painted them while we were staying in the lovely Glentana for a month in a beautiful flat. With the beautiful sea-view in front of me it was easy to be inspired! 


Flowers are a big favourite of mine, I always end up painting flowers. Especially pink flowers. 


I wanted to make bookmarks that are playful and this houses looked like a good idea. Some gifts don’t have to be big or expensive to make someone’s day. A gift this size will fit right into someone’s favourite storybook…


Here I was working on a new type of watercolour paper that is silky soft to the touch. I love the feel of the paper and it was nice to work on but quite a different experience than what I usually get with other watercolour paper types. The colours came out softer too.


And then finally I made a few Christmas bookmarks. I thought they might even make a nice Christmas tree decoration.
