21 juli
In het echt zijn de kaartjes warm geel, niet zo citroen geel als op de foto... :))
Yesterday, July 21st, was the Independent Day from Belgium, with the yearly parade of the army and the civil services in Brussels, in the presence of the Royal Family, and with fireworks in the evening. As I am a good citizen, I got the idea to make Belgian ATC's. And what's more "Belgian" than "Manneken Pis" ??? :)) It's funny, because the stamp came from a Dutch stamp company !! :))))
When I was about to glue the word "Belgium" on the cards, I noticed, that I only had place for it under the "wee" from the "Manneken"; oh, oh, kind of naughty ! :)))))

Eindelijk weer een layout !
At last, I made another layout !! It's the first in a row of holiday-layouts. In our holiday house, we had an open staircase in the livingroom, but Flo, our little dog, soon got used to it and ran up and down ! One day, she discovered, that you can see through the bannisters, all around the living room and especially on the table !! Getting a sweet from her boss (for the photo) really made her day, mjam !! :))) Of course I had to scrap those cute, naughty pictures !

Terug naar m'n hobby

Even iets anders....
Wow, it's official, we have a heatwave !! Every day above 30° C, even above 35° !!! And here, it's hot and humid !! So I only go outside in the morning and in the evening.
In the evening it's lovely to sit outside in the garden; we have a "Mediterranean" corner, with a vine, loaded with small bunches of grapes, as sun screen, and pots of flowers everywhere.
To sit cosy, you need cushions with nice covers, and for those, I have a very easy and cheap idea: in cheap stores, I bought some towels, small, big, guest towels, even kitchen towels, it depends on the size of your cushions. Big towels are folded double, and stitched on the 2 sides. For small towels, you put 2 together, and stitch 3 sides. On the open side you then stitch ribbons, to tie in a bow. You find lots of nice patterns and colours, and they're easy to wash. The green towels below on the picture, aren't stitched yet, I bought those for 2 Euros...
