My journaling:
For my third birthday, I got a bike. When I went down the stairs, after Mom and Dad on bed had sung for me, in the hallway was my new bike.
The joy shines from my face. I just got a bike!
It was a wonderful birthday gift.

25 years of marriage

I can hardly believe it myself, but Hans and me were married for 25 years on April 28.
And we went on a suprise trip. A suprise for me it is, cause Hans has taken care of everything!

We went with a little private plane on Saturday 27th April. André (our brother in law)  did fly us to Balen in Belgium. To my surprise our 2 best friends were there. They had come with our convertible. So we went further with our car and ended up at this little castle in Wittem (Zuid-Limburg in the Netherlands).
I was totally astonished!
We had a few great days, driving to the beautiful surroundings that we know so well, eating a lot and enjoying the castle and each other.

Thanks my love, for a great unforgetable weekend!

Love, Miranda

Srping 2013 ~CSI case #70

 Wahoo, here is my first reveal as part of the DT of CSI (Color, Stories, Inspiration). I'm so proud to be part of this amazing team!
SCHEME (USE ALL 5 COLORS)
  • Prettiest Pink - carnation pink, taken from the bike - 233.129.152
  • Palest Pink - light pink, taken from the highlights on the bike - 252.230.233
  • White Picket Fence - white, taken from the white tulips  - 254.253.249
  • Leaf Green - medium grass green, taken from the leaves - 169.203.129
  • Handlebars - black, taken from the handlebars - 2.1.6
 
EVIDENCE (USE AT LEAST 2 ELEMENTS)
  • circles
  • label
  • paint
  • distressing
TESTIMONY (USE AT LEAST 1 ELEMENT)
  • document something about spring
  • tuck your journaling inside something (like the flowers in the basket)
My journaling (on the label, tucked behind the pink paper):
It took such a long time for spring to begin this year! It was a long winter, both literally and figuratively. 
My need for sun was getting bigger and kept being cold. 
Until the end of April, then slowly it became spring and I didn't have to wear my wintercoat anymore, although it remains close by on the coat rack. The weather is very changeable.
Now that spring has started again, I can recharge my energy and try to shake off
this winter fatigue.

Sketchabilities sketch #90

And here is sketch #90 at Sketchabilities! Come join us and play along.
And this is my take on it:
The pictures I used are from my trip to Barcelona in 2010. 
With my collegue Pauline I went up on the Sagrada Familia. It was so perfect.
We had a perfect time.




Love, Miranda
