Christmas

Did you all have a Merry Christmas? We sure did..I have been eating so much and had a great time with friends and family!
I have done a few pages these last days, not so much as normally but I couldn't do without a little bit of scrapping!

For this page I used Jofia Devoe's kit 'The Innocent Imagination'. I scrapped pictures of both my sons in 2003..and it was real fun making this page!

Phuong Ton arranged a CT exchange for the Holidays and I made a page for her with pictures of her cute little boy. I used 'The Spirit of Christmas' by Lotta Designs.

For the same team I made a page for Magda...she had uploaded such gorgeous pictures..I just couldn't resist them. For this page I used 'New Wishes' by Camila Designs.

Another page with Dawn Inskip's 'Wild Thing papers' and 'Woodland Doodles'. I scrapped a picture of my youngest son made beginning of this year. He was walking our dog Quincy...and he is real good at it ;)

Since I quite a few teams I really enjoy to scrap kits I bought a while ago and finally can make a page with...this time I used the 'Beary Sweet kit' of Kasia Designs. The picture is one of my oldest son...he was just two months old...I really love his clothes!

A page of my youngest son Pascal...I used 'My first Christmas mini-kit' by Jofia Designs. I soo love her kits..I have almost all of them!

And the last page is a CT page for Lorie M. Designs. I used her 'Angel Touch kit' to scrap a page with one of my weddingpictures.

This is it for now...hope you will have wonderful days...this last week of the year! Thanks for looking and hope to see you soon!

CT's

Wow...already 2 weeks ago that I blogged...so sorry! Well, I was very busy and had a lot on my mind. Therefor I made some hard decisions! I had to quit 4 of my teams...I couldn't keep up with their requirements and could not do the work I think I had to do for them..so I left Juno Designs, Symphonie, Glam Fairy Designs and Designs by Nikki and Jen. I will miss them but it is better for the moment!

I was asked to be January guest for Dawn Inskip again but I got this Christmas gift in my postbox at DST...I could start right away and as I looove to work for Dawn, I could only say YEAAAAHHHH....

Today Dawn released 'Woodland Doodles' and 'Wild Thing Papers' available at NDISB and Pickleberrypop and both goodies are wonderful to work with...I already finished my first page with them..

And I made two pages with her wonderful kit 'Silent Night', 'Frosty Alpha' and 'Bubble Brads'

The best thing of leaving some CT's is that I finally have time to scrap some kits I bought during the last months...yesterday I had time to make a page with 'By the Sea' of Catherine Designs and Lily Designs available at Afer5Designs. It is a picture of my youngest son in Italy, I recolored it a bit with Lightroom.

Finally...Lorie Davison had a sale so I thought that was the perfect moment to buy her 'Drifting Snow Dreams Kit'..it is an expensive kit but it is sure worth the money. I made a layout with it for our Christmas Cards (and with a picture of the boys for each of their teachers) and it turned out great...a bit weird all over but it was real fun creating it!!

At the blog of Weeds and Wildflowers Design we are having a 'Countdown to Christmas'...and we still have a few days left with a freebie everyday!

For the Countdown I have made a card:

and a quickpage..for both of them I have used the 'Jolly Holiday Collection'.

Lorie M. Designs made the wonderful 'Angel Touch Kit' and I made a page with it, using my oldest son's girlfriend Ana.

Patricia Christensen released her new kit 'Wishing you the merriest'. I used a picture of my sweet dogs..and actually they were not sitting in the snow but in the sand, my hubby made it into snow ;)

Ingeborg Katers/Ik scrap made some quickpages of her wonderful kit 'Nature is Calling' and I used two of them...

Have a wonderful weekend!

Winter Wonderland

I am soo excited...I started as a designer at E-scape and Scrap and I finished my new kit 'Winter Wonderland'

I even made a 'Winter Wonderland Quick page set' with 4 gorgeous layered 12x12" layouts for all your winter pictures.

Here are some pages I have made with the kit/Quick page set...

I really hope you all love my new kit...you even have the chance to win it...please take a look at this thread at DST...I am going to RAK 3 lucky ones with it!!

For now I wish you a great day and see you soon!

Countdown to Christmas

Can you believe it, I have no pages to show you...well..I have done some, but I can't show them at this moment...it will just take a few more days, have some great news by then which I worked for very hard..so..be patient...well..at least I have to be patient.

Meanwhile you should definitively check the 'Weeds and Wildflowers blog' because we are having a daily 'Countdown to Christmas' on the blog..everyday you will find a little present made by us, the Site CT and our lovely designers...but be aware...they will only stay on the blog each for 24 hours!!

That is all for now...have fun!

Jolly Holly

Hi, I am back again...so sorry I haven't updated sooner but there was to much going on last one and a half week...my dearest friend had surgery and I was not in the mood to do anything at all...haven't scrapped so much either BUT...I did a lot of designing and I am ALMOST finished...it is going to be great.. I promise....
I have a few pages for you..check this out!

This first page is made with the amazing 'Jolly Holly Collection' by Gina Marie Huff...this collection is sooo huge and really wonderful..well..actually..this kit was the announcement I was intend to do last week. The collection is build up in 8 parts so you can decide yourself which parts you want to have...next weekend the complete collection (all 8 parts together) will be on sale because of Black Friday!

I used Sussie M. Designs wonderful kit 'Let it snow' for above page. I used a picture of my parents while sleighriding in Norway...and guess what..this year they are going to Lapland...and they will meet Santa and sleep in the Ice-hotel...isn't that great (oke..give me another blanket..I am freezing off here behind my desk..lol)

For this page I extracted some pictures of my youngest son during Christmas 5 years ago..he had so much fun with his box. I used a collab by Phuong Ton and Microferk Designs 'Holiday Shimmer' and used Natali Designs 'Playing with Word art vol.5'.

I made this page with the new kit of Lorie M. Designs 'Christmas Wishes', I took these pictures of my youngest son last year in the gardencentre.

Another page with a kit of Lorie M. Designs 'Happy Days' I used this kit before and this is a complete different layout..

For this page I used a template by Kay Eflin 'Kay's Klicks set 2' and a kit from Karin Aicken 'Bright Christmas'...all from E-scape and Scrap...the picture I made last year in Disney Paris.

Soo...these are my pages for today...I hope to have some new pages for you soon. Ohh...almost forgot to mention....I have been asked to guest for Dawn Inskip again..and I love it...it will be in January..really looking forward to it!

For now..wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving!

Great new stuff

Hi, again I have done so many layouts and again I did not post them sooner. We had a lot of things going on over here..my husband is at home very often at the moment due to the economic crisis. He tranports steal for carindustrie but as many industries increased their productions, there is nothing to transport. Hope things will be better soon but that won't be before January I am afraid. Further my dearest friend is very sick and going to the hospital for surgery..I have had sleepless nights about it and hope things will work out fine for her...biiiggggg hug!

Phuong Ton teamed up with the wonderfully talented JenU Designs to bring you a fabulously gorgeous winter kit, "Knocking on Winter's Door". It will be released tomorrow at SBG.

Symphonie has made a wonderful new magical winter kit, 'Snow Queen'. I made both pages with it...for 'Snow Dogs' I used a picture of my parents Dogsleighriding in Norway...they are real adventurers ;)

Juno Designs created a wonderful autumn kit with some gorgeous doodles...'Forest Life'. I used a picture of my youngest son two years ago...

Phuong Ton did a Studio Girls collab 'Impressions of Honor' I made this page with a picture of my grandparents on their weddingday....

Kay Eflin and Ruth Davies collabed in the great kit 'Aussie Down Under'..I found the great picture at Google, perfect for this kit!

This week a wonderful scraplift challenge on the Weeds and Wildflowers blog..we lifted a page of Tarty00/Tara Dunstan and I came up with this page, using Patricia Christensen's new kit J'aime Chocolat.

Lorie M. Designs released a great colorful new kit 'Happy Days'. I used this happy picture of my son and made it to 'Gallery Standout' at Gotta Pixels..YEAH!

Nikki Scott released her wonderful winterkit 'Snow Chilli' and I loved working with it...great colors and elements and perfect to scrap my little boy!

One of my favorite pictures at the moment...my husband and youngest son in Venice last summer...great couple aren't they? I used Kay Eflin's kit 'From Boys to Men' to make this page.

My last page for Faith True's Guest CT...I used her wonderful kit 'It's a man's thing' and again used a picture of my hubby in Venice...

My son once got this guitar as a present (sorry..bought it myself) but it is a pain in the ears so I sort of took it away...but for this layout he was aloud to make noise for a day..lol. I used Stephanie Trouve/Glam Fairy Designs kit 'Highschool' and it turned out real cooool.

That is it for today..tomorrow I will have new releases, new pages and an announcement so make sure to take a look here. Have a great day!

Happy Birthday Pascal

Oh..I was soo busy last days...had to make a birthday invitation (I used 'Birthday Wish' by Jofia/Holly Designs) and do all shoppings for it because we celebrated my youngest son's birthday today. Next Wednesday he will be six but we had his party today...he was sooo spoiled..and I really love it because that is what your memories of childhood-birthday's will be...being spoiled for one hole day..don't we all love that! Well..I spoiled myself a little by celebrating DSD..I bought the 'Pele Mele, memorieboard-kit' and the 'Sewn Oldies alpha' of Catherine Designs at Afterfive Designs. Her designs are amazing and her CT is one my dream teams ;)

Please hop all over to the Weeds and Wildflowers-blog because the Site CT is giving away 6 quickpages made with Gina's new kit 'Just Earthy' and one of those pages is mine...

Faith True released her new kit 'Fields of Happy'and I made one page with it, using little Julia's picture...

Well..it was a long busy day today...I am off to bed now and will be updating here tomorrow somewhere...happy NSD and see you tomorrow!

Relaxing Mood

Wow..what a title for a monday-evening-post. I had such a busy day..I had to clean up the house, I usually don't do that much in the weekends and on mondays it always looks as if there has been some sort of explosion. After a week having my husband around it was quiet in the house...kids at school, dogs outside..just me and the mess but I got it fixed. I even did some housepainting..and there is still lots of painting to do. Can you imagine how it is to paint in a room with two black long haired dogs..I most of the time have white dogs and a furry cupboard ;) On monday we also have swimmingclasses of my youngest and he did great, learned several new things and went to bed with red watery eyes..poor guy!

Remember yesterday's sneak peek...well...Relaxing Mood of Lorie M. Designs is released and available at Scrapable and Scrapladies. I made two pages with it. First page my boys were playing with leaves and had great fun, the other page is an older picture of my youngest son.

Well..that is all for today. I am off to bed..was working on a layout but PSP let me down..again..oepf..
See you tomorrow!
