It's been quite a while since my last day off, so I was totally happy to be able to go shopping again last Friday with a friend. I'm almost too afraid to confess, but we spoilt ourselves rotten and both bought ourselves a new pair of boots (!) It was lovely chatting and sharing our umbrella, having lunch and dinner together. Just a wonderful day! With some friends you go to the cinema or do something else (like shopping), with others you can be most philosophical and with your blog buddies you share different things, but one thing is the same: friendship. I came across an old notebook and decided to embellish it. I thought it would be nice to write down precious memories regarding friends. Some time ago I contacted Marianne Design to become Designer for a Day and recently I became the lucky recipient of the Creatable with birds. Here's what I made. Papers are MD, too. The metal frame around the quote is an old picture frame. I made the little parasol with a Nellie Snellen die. Marianne thanks again for the die and your award!!

BeantwoordenVerwijderenMoet wel even wat recht zetten anders denk je dat ik zo ijverig ben . Alles wat je de afgelopen dagen op mijn blog ziet voor de bloghop van crealies is al enkele weken geleden gemaakt. Wij werken bijna altijd heel ver in voren als er iets nieuws uit komt.
fijn weekend
gr miriam
Ira querida

Kan jij bij MD niet designer voor onbepaalde tijd worden? Oh oh oh wat vind ik dit móói! Het ademt iets nostalgisch en chique en ik ben gék op die combi haha.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenDat dagje met die vriendin klinkt geweldig :)
Heerlijk toch hé om met ieder van hen soms iets anders te delen of te doen.
En laarzen? Ach je kunt er nooit genoeg hebben. Het is hier toch het grottste deel van het jaar toch herfst en winter. Zeg nou zelf; van de lente naar de herfst. Echt zomer hebben we amper gehad...
Liefs,
