iPad-cover and paper-strawberries

As my DH was on a business-trip friday and saturday I had some time to craft!
So friday night i made some paper-strawberries.
AREN'T THESE CUTE!?
I'll try to make them a bit more flat on the bottom, but for now I like them like that, too! By the way: I don't mind using this lovely SU-christmas-papers! (;

Yesterday I had a crafty afternoon @ my colleague Birgit's house and we sewed iPad-covers!
Mine is far from perfect, but I like it anyway!
The fabric is www.tanteema.com AND the designs are mine! (;
Blogged from my iPad! (;

GREAT-GEOCACHING-EVENT

What a great day this was! (;

2 weeks ago we attended another great Geocaching-Event.
Fellow geocachers had arranged for a huge group to visit the mine in Schauinsland-mountain . And so we boarded a cabin of the cable railway and flew on top!
We had put on our mud-clothes, were given an helmet and a
head-lamp and started the adventure!
Visitors are only allowed for three galleries, which are only reachable by wooden ladders and there are many ladders! (;

So we climbed up and down, squeezed into centuries-old driven galleries, looked into man-made huge caves and deep water-filled holes.
When we saw the spot, where only the mine-association-members are allowed to climb down to the deeper galleries we felt the geocachers-urge to climb down in the black hole, too! (;

Except for not being able to explore more this was a great experience and we learned so much during these 2,5 hours!
And the sore muscles we had the next days were only reminders of this great day!

Afterwards we were rewarded with a yummy meal!
I had "Käs-Spätzle" (swabian noodles with onions and melted cheese) and a salad!
YUMMO! (;

Still needing plenty of green/lime-buttons for the summer-wedding! (;

BUTTONS all around!

First I want to show you - as promised in December - our invitations for our civil wedding!

We LOVED them,
our guests LOVED them,
they were US (;
Not too serious - just like we are!

And here's a collage showing our official photos (;
LOVE THEM ALL! (;
And my two bouquets (;
The one my colleagues gave to me:


And the official one (;
See the buttons?
And the two "badges" our colleagues made for us!
(by the way: they're lying on a piece of tante-ema-fabric I designed!(((; )

You can guess that the button-theme will reoccur for our curch-wedding-invites and reception-decorations! (;
AND I have planned to let my tailor add little and small green buttons to my wedding-dress! THIS IS WHY I ASK FOR YOUR HELP:
Could you please have a look in your sewing box if there are some green buttons (up to 15mm) that you could spare - I WOULD LOVE TO INCLUDE THEM! (;

I have already collected some:

HAVE A WONDERFUL EVENING! (;
