Zomers genieten

Goedemorgen,

Wat een geweldig weer is het weer... ik geniet met volle teugen van het buiten zijn... nu ik hier zo dicht bij het strand woon ga ik bijna dagelijks met mijn hulphond Sjors op het strand een kop koffie drinken.... dat kan hier omdat er betonnen platen liggen. Na jaren van gemis kan ik weer op het strand komen.... wat een genieten is dat.....

Maar ondertussen blijven mijn mooie hobbyspullen liggen... inspiratie genoeg... zeker na het geweldige Event!!! Gelukkig was ik vanmorgen al vroeg op en ben ik heerlijk mijn knutselhok in gegaan en heb deze kaart gemaakt.

Deze kaart is gemaakt nadat ik inspiratie kreeg van het

ARTSpecially boekje "Stempelworkshops event 2012"

Hierin staat de uitleg van een tag met distress stains en template.... en hiermee is deze kaart geboren...

Voor een uitleg verwijs ik je naar bovengenoemde boekje dat je HIER kunt aanschaffen.

Gebruikte materialen:

Chromolux 700

Distress stain Aged Mahogany

Distress ink Victorian Velvet en Fired Brick

Stempel van Lost-coast-designs.com

Embossed met WOW Black Twinkle embossing poeder

ingewerkt met Tyekol

Template is van Crealies, Sticky stencil STST 06

Witte zelf te kleuren bloemen gekleurd met Distress stain Fired brick en Victorian Velvet en

vervolgens met Glimmer mist besproeid. Brad uit voorraad.

Film strip van Tim Holtz

Tekst stempel heb ik gekregen en weet ik het merk dus niet van...

Ik hoop dat jullie nog een heerlijke tweede pinksterdag hebben en kunnen genieten van het prachtige weer. Ik in ieder geval wel!

Lieve groetjes

Marion

So grateful....

Well... I'm back on track. My new home is incredible beautiful and for the first time since long I'm aible to take care of myself and my household. Back on myself and caring like I should be.

Last year has been a rollercoaster of things happening... bad things.. and good things.

And what I learned is that I'm a very blessed girl. So many help from friends and from unexpected people.....

That is being rich!!! There is no amount of money that can compeed with this.

I'm so incredibly grateful for all that you did for me..... 

And allthough I don't mention you all by name... you know that I mean you!!

Yes you!!!!  Thank you so much for making this house a home for me, my son and our animals!!!

For arranging my craft room.... for finding myself and my happiness back!!!

For everything you all did!!!

THANKS!

With all my heart..... I love you all!!
