Look what i found in a book i bought in the secondhand store : on the backcover someone has drawn a sweet picture and left some really old vignettes, lucky me.
This is my first Spring ATC of this year. I used alfabet stamps, scrapbookpaper and seethrough envelopes. The photograph does not do the ATC andy justice, the colours are more vibrant in real life.
Here is the first set of Pretty-Stones that i made. I am going to experiment a bit with different patterns to find out what ik like best. It is a really nice craft with materials i usually do not use, so that is fun !
Today many organizations, universities and schools of The Netherlands are taking part in the national Warm Sweater Day ( Warme Truiendag ). On this day all heaters will be set a few degrees lower. Are you energy conscious ? Then join in and put on a nice, warm sweater :)
Last weekend we had another Cowboys and Indians-party in the local western style town : a small "village" with various locations for parties to be held in.
It is a fun place to be, the food is nice and the people that work there are friendly.
For those of you who have pictures of your cats but want to make a bit more out of them, i suggest you go and make some LOLcats. LOLcats are pictures with a text added which is for tho most part funny or endearing. Mind you, the text that you write has to be written in a certain language, namely LOLcat-language. For more instructions about the pictures or the text i refer to : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lolcats, http://icanhascheezburger.com/ and http://speaklolcat.com/ Here are some examples of my own making.
