Two layouts and hot weather

I love summer weather but today it has been a bit too much. Right now (at 8 pm) it is still 35 degrees celcius (95F) outside and it does not seem to cool down at all. Out attic (where I am sitting roght now) is unbelievably hot. So again: This is going to be a short post.

This afternoon the Netherlands soccer team beat Brazil and made it to the semi finals of the World Cup. Go Holland!

I was able two make two layouts this week. One of Jorams first day in grade 3 and the other one from Sinterklaas 2009. Sinterklaas is a typical Dutch tradition which takes place on December 5th. In general you can sort of compare it to Santa. If you want to read more about it in English: HERE's the Wikpedia link.

On both layouts title and joiurnaling are in Dutch.

First day of third grade layout:

Patternedpaper: Basic Grey

Stickers: Basic Grey, Making Memories

Buttons: Basic Grey

Ribbon: American Crafts

Misc: Embroidery thread

The word 'groep' was cut with my Silhouette. Except for the 'o', which is a Basic Grey sticker

The Sinterklaas layout:

Cardstock: Bazzill

Patterned paper: DCWV

Chipboard: Maya Road

Flowers: Hero Arts

Stickers: K and Company, Sandylion

Jouranling spot: Making Memories

Felt mat: Prima Marketing

Studs: Prima Marketing

Misc: Buttons, bling

And again: The title was cut with the Silhouette
