DC Home comforts

 Hello, crafty people!

The Daring Cardmakers have a new challenge for you!

Dawn wants to see cards that celebrate the home comforts.

As I (= Dawn) am an expat living in France there are lots of things I miss. For example Cadbury chocolate, Yorkshire tea and oxo cubes. So I want you to feature a card with something that you would miss if you lived in another country, what reminds you of home. It might not even be food. I still can't get used to seeing yellow post boxes and post vans.

I loved thinking about my „home comforts“. I lived a year in the US and a year in England … and these are some oft he things I missed. Not all of them are particular German, I guess.

The rural area I’m from. Abroad I lived in cities … and I always missed the countryside. Large fields, meadows, forests…

Traditional „coffee and cake“ afternoon meetings with anyone. No matter how old the person is. (And in my opinion the most delicious cakes in the world 😉)

Local wine and relaxed evenings in beergardens and outdoor locations.

… and the crazy stuff:

Women without make-up and nail polish.

I dedicated my card to our „Kaffee und Kuchen“ tradition:

But there are also things I still miss from my study abroad year in England: Yorkshire tea (which I still order online several times a year) and craft magazines.

 

Hallo Bastlerinnen,

Die Daring Cardmakers haben wieder eine Herausforderung für euch!

Dawn fordert dich heraus, dich diese Woche mal damit auseinanderzusetzen, was du an deiner Heimat liebst.

Heimatliebe

Am besten findet man das heraus, wenn man längere Zeit im Ausland verbringt. Ich habe ein Jahr in den USA und ein Jahr in England verbracht und habe folgende Dinge am meisten vermisst:

meine ländliche Heimat (der Kraichgau zwischen badischer Weinstraße und deutscher Fachwerkstraße 😉), „Kaffee und Kuchen“, gemütlich im Wein- oder Biergarten sitzen … und ungeschminkte Frauen ohne Nagellack *hihi*.

Wie geht es dir? Was magst du an deiner Heimat? Zeig es uns auf deiner Karte
