get sketchy 40...

Last night I couldn't sleep....so I jumped out of my bed  and went upstairs to my scraproom and made this card using GetSketchy sketch.....
...with love...




















---------------------------------------------------------------
I'm a little bit nervous at the moment (ok, not a little, but very,very nervous)...I'm waiting for a phone call from my sister who's with my parents at the hospital....my father is very sick and they think about a intestinal obstruction (don't know if that's te right word for it)...and they don't know yet where and how. When my sister called me with the results of the x-ray pictures, then I decide if I go to Zwolle (to my parents and hospital) and don't go to my work. I'm so afraid that my father also having cancer like my mother! That would be really a bad,bad  nightmare!

Still four day's and then Richard is coming back from his holiday...they're in Austria now and having fun even when the weather is very bad...cold and alot of rain:( Well overhere it isn't also nice Spring weather....I want SUNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm happy when he's coming back Saturday, but I also had a great time home alone:):):) Last week I was busy with painting....no, I don't have a new hobby...painting art...no I painted the toilet and the window frames in the kitchen:( And I have worked some day's, did some scrapping and visit my parents...Last Thursday it was my fathers b-day and they were staying in the house from friends. They have such a beautiful house in a little village near Zwolle...with a huge garden......some photo's.....

blossom...

Jurre had fun with playing in the garden....



it was a little bit cold, but in the sun it was nice...

I want to thank Jeanet for this award..........
...with this award I have to tell you something about myself.....here we goooo....
...since 5 years now I live happy together with Richard in the old fisherstown Harderwijk. I never thought I would leave Zwolle;) I work with mentally disabled people and I love my job! We have two cats named Mees and Guusje, can't imagine a life without cats! Since my childhood I alway's want to take care of animals, it makes me so angry when people hurt animals. When I read or see something about animal cruelty I feel so helpless and can't sleep, only think "what can I do about that?"...so that's also a reason why i'm a vegetarian now for 14 years. I'm a little bit shy person, don't like big groups/partys. I love my life together with my family and friends and I can enjoy little things.....a singing bird, a smiling child, playing cats, a postcard in my mailbox, a butterfly, a beautiful song on the radio, etc, etc!!!!!

I'll pass this award to Yvonne, Peggy and Vivian!

Before I leave just one more thing......did you allready visit ButterflyCrafts (see my last post)....this month you can win a super (really a SUPER) prize pack by Nikki Sivils...the only thing you have to do is...play along the challenge ofcourse!!! Have FUN!!!

Wish you all a happy Tuesday!!!

scrapping the music....

After I came home twice all wet by the rain (and it was so really cold today...where is Spring???) I jumped into my pajama pants and went to my scraproom to make my entry for the challenge of Scrapping the Music, with this week the song 'change in my life'...........here it's...........

'Give me sunshine when I only see gray'............
...The 'sad'girl I cut out from a magazine, for the background I have used alot of glimmermist and watercolor (and salt) and ofcourse I did some (hand)stitching
---------------------------------------------------------
Last week I have received my happy mail......

....the cute papers from Kiki Art and the sweet fruity stamps from Happy2scrap4life !!!! I alway's love to play challenges, also when you can't win a prize for it.....but I must say when you win, it's fantastic to receive the happy mail:):):)
----------------------------------------------------------
Tomorrow evening Richard is leaving me for one and a half week....he's going to Austria and Slovenia where they're going for wild water canoeing. Last year I also went with him, but I have decided to stay at home this year. And I think I have made the good decision, because the weather overthere isn't that good at the moment. I must say that I love to be home alone for some day's (doing what I want, cook what I want,watch tv programmes I love and scrap till late in the evening) but I hate it to be alone at night...so I think my furryfriends will sleep in our room this week :)

Well I'm off to my bed now...goodnight!!!!
