Welcome to Tag You're It
at My Creative Time
Tags are the best way to make everything better right?
Even if you want to give something small
but meaningful
It is the finishing touch
and it is quick and simple
with MCT
So being the only DT member from Europe
I would like to introduce our traditions
and with the Ephemera's and papers and dies from MCT
I can adjust them to our traditions
So this Friday is very exciting because it is the start of
my favorite season....Sinterklaas
Sinterklaas will come from Spain with his steamboat and his
helpers, Black Peters (black because they climb into the chimney)
and his horse OzoSnel.
They are already on their way and will arrive in our country
November 15th!!
We celebrate big on the 5th of December
with presents like you do on Christmas Day
So we love to help Sinterklaas as much as we can!
So he has sent Pepernoten our way, those are little Gingerbread
cookies the Black Peters hand out to all the little childeren
They are very yummie and we make sure they have enough to hand
out when they arrive
My husband and I will be standing near the boat so the Black Peters can fill
their sacks so they can give the Pepernoten to the childeren.
And believe me....they need a lot
So a sweet lady, who has helped Sinterklaas for decades
is opening her house this Friday so 30 volunteers sit around one big long
table to prepare the pepernoten!
Always a lot of fun!
And so I bought her this cute mug, with a typical Sinterklaas
saying...."when sweet, you get a treat"
And I made a matching tag to got with and the supplies I used
I have mentioned under the photo's
Hope you like our tradition!!!
