My first doorhanger.


My first doorhanger is a lifted one. I do not know who made it, but I saw it some
where....
I think it was on Ellen her blog! But....thanks to Ellen I made this.
Ellen...you are a great inspiration to me! I adore your VINTAGE things and I hope to become as good as you are!
I just LOVE the VINTAGE and I am working on some other projects.....
Yes....vintage, too.....
Just wait a little....
That's why I put this doorhanger on my door± so nobody will disturb me!
Have a wonderful night,
hug to all,

Jen.

JEN'S CHALLENGE, week 13> Childhood.


I was a girl, but I did play outside with boy's!
I had a cowboy-outfit and we played on the dike and in the woods.....
Inside I loved my Barbie dolls and I only played with them. My other dolls were not very interesting for me....
I had a little stove, I did quite some drawing and I played with buttons in front of the stove.
I was a lonely and very shy child.....
But I had a lot of sweet and caring people around me....
So....I think in the end things worked out quite well for me.
I am not shy anymore, hi,hi.....
Have a nice week,
Jen.

JEN'S CHALLENGE 13: friday, 27 th of march> CHILDHOOD!

This week the word is Childhood!
What time did you grow up in? The sixties? The seventy's?
Were you happy during your youth?
What do you remember of your childhood?
I have to run now, because I did find a very old picture of myselfe and it will be soooo much fun to do something with this one!
Lots of love, Jen.

The building proces is almost done!






Today the people worked very hard again and the ceiling was placed with the lamps. Ofcourse the floor has to dry, so that will take some day's....The central heating is snorring, so this will help a little! It looks so good! I can still not believe how pretty it al is! The men left it behind very clean! My compliments to all the hard workers!
Hug, Jen.

Cursus gevorderde scrapsters.

Hoi meiden,
Hebben jullie al weer zin en tijd om verder te gaan?
Ik heb over een aantal weken weer ruimte om de cursus voor de gevorderde scrapsters te hervatten!
Gewoon weer 5 lessen...
Laat het me weten!
Ik hoor het dan wel!


Ook is er vraag naar een hele dag scrappen> het liefst in het weekend en dan bijvoorbeeld van 10.00 tot 22.00 uur. Je betaalt een vast bedrag en het eten en drinken zit erbij. Dus...een lekkere lunch, koffie,thee en iets lekkers,frisdrank-sapje en een warme maaltijd. Een kleine verrassing zal er ook zijn voor de deelnemers! Bovendien gaan we tijdens deze dag maken: een BEELDSCHONE DOOS en een BOEKJE van KARTON> Je neemt zelf je scrapspullen (dubbelzijdig tape, snijmachine, lint,enz.) mee en dan kun je gebruik maken van de stans- en ponsmaterialen. De kosten voor een hele dag zijn 35 euro.
Als je belangstelling hebt: mail me, bel me of laat een berichtje achter op mijn blog.

Groetjes en een fijne avond,
Jen.

JEN'S CHALLENGE 12: HEALTH.


Not a very huge picture this time. I used a little Jen's head on the flower.....
What can I tell about health?
Well....A lot! We have been true quite some storms when it comes to health....
We lost both children almost several times....
But....it made us stronger as a family! We are so united the four of us!
No man or woman comes in and between.....But it also made us think more about others, too. I think of all the people I love and I care for....
Your sore tootsies, Marjo! Please take care of yourself! Joan...Get strong, because I want to give you a huge hug this summer! Our dearest friends in Oregon who are struggling with illnesses....
And no....I do not want to talk about my lungs.....
I'm FINE!
Lots of love to all my dearest friends and scrap-girls,
Jen.

More Pipoos-fun....




This sweet little box is made of.....a simple teabox (Pickwick-teabags).
I made paper (BG) in the inside and used the Disney papers on the outside.
It will be a great present for a new born baby-girl.
You can put some socks in it and you have a nice present!
You can see it in the Pipoos store in Groningen.
I had fun today, but too bad Disney is not very popular here....
A lot of ladies made the comment: "I like scrapping, but I have totally NOTHING with Disney!"
Well....tooo bad, ladies....
We LOVE it, ha, ha...
So, I had fun and enjoyed the day!
Have a nice saturday,
hug, Jen.

Disney-minibook and some partystuff....



The Disney mini-book was a little "empty"on the outside, so I gave it some decorations.....
I also made a little tagholder with a tag for a girl's party.

JEN'S CHALLENGE week 12: 20 march '09> HEALTH.

I know....
We do not think about good health every day....
At least not when we feel good....
But then.....your world can get upside down in only one moment....
The moment the doctor is telling you that you have breast cancer.....
Or your friend's husband calls you early in the morning to tell you that she is very ill and she won't be there for your morning together.....
Or you feel that your poor body is telling you: ENOUGH! YOU WORK TOOOOOO HARD AND THE WORRIES ARE TOOOOOO MUCH AND TO HEAVY!
What to do?
HEALTH!
It is a gift to be healthy and to stay healthy!
I have day's that I think of some people who are very ill or they can not do what they would like to do....
Yes, I think of you in Canada and you in Zeeland, and you in IJmuiden.....And of you in Spijk.....
I think of three lovely girls in Oregon.....I wish I had some magic!
I hope a lot of you get the strenght to go on!
Love, Jen.

Daycarecentre and yard today.....





Today.....after school I did find the daycarecentre in this state. The street is coming along wonderful, as well as the inside of the building.
What a job!
It really is all craftswork and I am so happy with the builders, the painters and the men who make the yard so good looking.
Ofcourse .....there's still a lot to do, but in the end it'll be great!
Have a wonderful day,

hug for all of you, Jen.

Zaterdag, 21 maart 2009: PIPOOS OPEN DAG MET VEEL LEUKE DEMONSTRATIES!



Zaterdag, 21 maart as hebben alle Pipoos vestigingen weer een leuke en gezellige open dag met vele demonstraties!
Van alles is er weer te zien en te leren op hobbygebied!
Ik ben gevraagd deze keer de DISNEY-afdeling voor mijn rekening te nemen!
Da's precies wat voor mij, he?
We zijn immers helemaal "into Disney".....
Heb de cricut al klaar staan! Moet nog even wat mooie LO's als voorbeelden maken en natuurlijk mocht ik het schattige Disneyboekje met papiertjes, stickertjes en epoxystickertjes scrappen. Heb de buitenkant wat extra versierd met de nieuwste bloempjes en de bling-bling is ook schitterend! Er is heel veel nieuws bij gekomen voor hele redelijke prijzen! En dat is fijn, want zo kun je royaal eens gaan scrappen met die mooie glinstersteentjes en dat supermooie lint!
Wil je de binnenkant ook bewonderen?
Kom dan gezellig zaterdag, 21 maart as naar de Pipoos te GRONINGEN!
De demo's zijn van 11.00 tot 16.00 uur!
Ik hoop je te zien!
Fijne zondag, Jen.

Saturday, 21 st of march I am going to do a Disney-demo in the Pippos-store in Groningen.
I was the lucky one to make a little Disney scrapbook with papers and flowers and bling.
Now I am working to get some LO's finished for saturday! I am going to use my Diney cartridges with the cricut!
Have a nice sunday and hope to meet you coming saturday in Groningen!
Jen.

Jen's challenge 11: school.


This is my tribute to the challenge school.Since I have no school-pictures of my self I used a very nice old school-pic from a nameless girl.
She likes school...I can see this in the way she sits and smiles....
I love the old things, like the vase and the drawing behind her....
As a smal kid I did not like school very much....
My schooltime was fun at the age of twelve till nineteen....
Careless, with a lot of friends and a lot of fun!
Dancing, concerts and party's!
Ofcourse I had to study very hard, but the fun things I remember the best!
Have a nice day, Jen.

Our Daycare centre....

The men do work like horses to finish as quickly as possible!
On all fronts they are active!
Electricians, carpenters, painters and men for the water, gas and floors walk in and out....
They all want to talk to the boss and....
Peter tells them: "She's the boss!"
So...I'm into all kind of telephone calls, briefings and in and between my duty's....
Taking care of coffee and treats, nursing the kids, cooking and I hope to do some scrapping tonight....
Tomorrow we are going to buy some first aid kits and other things we need.
And ofcourse the color of the floor....
Busy, busy...
I'm getting a little nervous now!
There's NO WAY back!
Have a nice evening,
hug to all,
Jen.







JEN'S CHALLENGE: week 11> friday, 13 of march: school.

SCHOOL?
Some of us have to go to school every day....
Year around.....
To give lessons or to bring their children to school....
To pick up kids, what ever....
What are your memories when we talk about school???
I am afraid I stick to school my whole life...
For 28 years I am a professional teacher and when I do count my childhood to these 28 years....
I am going to school for 44 years allready...
Day in, day out.....
PFFFFF.....
I must be crazy.....
School is not for all of us....
Björn is not going to a school......
Well....
Why did I pick this word?
One of you send me a mail about her kids and this mail really touched my heart.....
Let us (professional) teachers please think more about the needs from the kids and their parents....
Never forget....not all kids have the same abillity's to read or write as fast as the others.....
We should have PATIENT with these children! I know our own struggle with Björn and it hurts when your child(ren) is/are different!
Have a nice, sunny day,

Jen.

JEN'S CHALLENGE:week 10> TRUST!

Today my friend Tineke came to me with a terrible experience....
Somebody asked her for help and she did help him out, but....he seemed to be a terrible person and did steel money from her...
Poor darling.....
She is such a good heart....
Her helping hand made her loose all her faith in people....
How can people damage a person like this???
I do not understand these creatures....
I have mistakes, but I will never hurt people on purpose!
This week I ask all of you:

IN WHO DO YOU TRUST?

In God? In a person? Or are there more good people?

TRUST!

Have a good evening,
love you,
Jen.

JEN'S CHALLENGE:week 9> SPORT!

My page for this week is all about my love for wintersports.
I love to skate and to ski or just sit on a little sledge and have fun in the snow with the kids.
And believe me....it's hard work to climb up the hill and get your butt on that little red slee.....
As a girl I alway's dreamt of dancing on ice..... Keep on dreamin, girl...More then a swirl on the ice...That's it! Jumping is no option for me!
I still love to watch this, but the best for me is to move my (poor) body, hi, hi and get some exercise! During the summer I like to run!
Have a nice day,
Jen.
