Where I’ve been and what I did
(Freewheelin’ Friday #35)

August 20, 2010 By Marit

Most of you guessed it already: I've been in Zeeland the past few days! My dad was here last Monday and I took the opportunity to ride back home with him to stay a few days with him and my mom and visit my friend Lena. I took my camera with me and although I always do that when I visit my … [Read more...]

Breathtaking art
(Freewheelin’ Friday #26)

June 11, 2010 By Marit

Today, I want to take you on a trip... A trip that starts on top of the dunes nearby my hometown. When you walk on the path that leads over the dunes, you can look down at the beach. And the sea. And the wooden wave breakers. As a child, I played on this beach and the wave breakers are … [Read more...]

At the beach (continued)

August 24, 2009 By Marit

Helloooooo.... I'm back home! I spend three lovely days in Zeeland with my son visiting my parents.  I relaxed, enjoyed the landscape, the beach and the festivity that was going on in the little village I was born. I could tell you all about it, but I thought it would be more fun to SHOW you … [Read more...]

Discover the world (Challenge
Scrapping out Loud! )

February 22, 2009 By Marit

After the disastrous lay out on Friday (threw that away, remember?) I decided to just keep it familiar and calm with the next lay out. Couldn't handle another failure again so I worked with colours and paper I feel comfortable with and I went back to the basic of my scrapping: sand and water. … [Read more...]

Home versus home

February 1, 2009 By Marit

Yesterday, we went to visit my parents in Zeeland. They still live in the small village where I was born and raised.  It's a 2 hour drive so we left home early. My heart always beats a little faster once we arrive in "Walcheren" (the region I lived) and I realise every time I do miss the places, … [Read more...]

Dutch girls
the old fashioned way

November 29, 2008 By Marit

I'm working on an idea to make a LO about me and my friend as "dutch ladies". We're friends since primary school, we grew up in a small village in "Zeeland" and we both have "Zeeuwse" ancestors. In Zeeland, people used to dress in regional costumes, and - although I'm not thát old - I remember … [Read more...]
