Dutch commemoration of the War

In the Netherlands we commemorate the victims of the War.

At 20.00 we are silent for 2 minutes all over the country.

This year that is a strange commemorations, for we all

are at home watching tv and standing outside at 20.00 o'clock.

It is 75 years ago and special memorials were planned,

but they are all cancelled or without public.

For today I found a very special sentiment by Club Scrap

from the kit Steppin'Out 11/04.

Not only we miss those who did not come back from

the war, but today we also miss those we cannot go to.

All materials are Club Scrap.

For my card I used the Dutch colors of acryl paint,

a 4x6 inch gelli plate and various Club Scrap stencils.

When playing with the gelli plate you end up with

quite a few wonderful papers to play with.

So here is another card and I made the globe with

a stencil belonging to Club Scrap Bookshelves 03/13.

Thanks for looking,

stay safe,

stay free

and keep crafting.

Sunday scrap page: Memorial Day

As tomorrow is Memoral Day in the US,

I made this page using using the US national colors

 with the flowers from my garden and

Michael Strongs cloisonne nonagon stamp set.

I stamped the nonagon stamp 3 times: 2x red and  1x blue.

Then cut them out and  used the blue one to make

the two redones a combination of red and blue.

Also the inner circle, a seperate stamp, I stamped in

red and blue.

Here you see how i used them for the finished border

with ribbons and a sentiment in the middle.

The sentiment is by Create with TLC. 

After I added the flowers to the page, I added some more

of the circle stamp to give a firework impression behind

the flowers. 

Thanks everyone for looking.

Wishing you all a 

Happy

Have a creative day!
