profile:  My name is Irene de Mars. 

I live in a small town surrounded by forest and fields of heather in the middle of the Netherlands.

Ever since my childhood I love drawing and colouring and since I started my blog in 2011 a new world with lovely contacts has opened for me.

Thanks for having me as guest designer.
