Diva's challenge #221

This week's theme of Laura's challenge is 'Beads of Courage'. This is an Arts in Medicine that supports kids with chronic or life threatening illnesses. Instead of a sticker, these kids get a glass bead when they've had a needle, x-ray etc. 

Laura asks us to get inspired by Beads of Courage. As I have a chronic disease myself since my 24th, I can only imagine what it feels like to go through all the hassle when you're a kid. I admire their positiveness and can only give them my heart (full of Widgets ;-) ) to stay strong. I know they will...!

Weekly Challenge #180: UMT - MacDee

This week's challenge is a 'use my tangle' and we're asked to use MacDee by Anneke van Dam. It turns out this tangle pattern is inspired by tartan... It brings me straight back to my twenties when I had a 5-year relationship with a Scottish boy. Being Dutch myself, the kilt-culture was new to me, and I loved the proudness of the Scotts: being Scottish and wearing their kilts at special moments.

So... this challenge was about sweet memories to me and this made me decide the string would be a heart, with some tartan in the middle :-)
