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!

New Teams

I have so much to tell..so many great new things to share but first of all..I decided to start blogging on a daily base. I can take more time to promote my designers stuff when I blog every day and it doesn't take hours like it will take me now to show you all layouts.

I have been published again..this time in 'The Daily Scrapper, issue October 2008'..I feel really honored as they just pick a few layouts every month!!

So..my layouts..first of all, Phuong Ton asked me to sort of guest for her. She made two great kits.. Orchid Dreams, Reawakening and Orchid Dreams, The Beginning and I made a page with both of them.

For Juno Designs I made a page with her new collab kit with Anja J. 'Colorful Nature'. Really love the bright colors of this kit and love how this page of my youngest son turned out...

One of my new CT's is of Lorie M. Designs. She is a 'new' designer and I really love her style, a combination of digitally made and realistic elements. I worked with her Ma Boo Hay collab kit by Crop Dreams (Lorie M. Designs, Aimee Designs, Cactus Mango). It is a charity kit to celebrate Filipino American History Month to benefit Opportunity House - a Pearl S. Buck Foundation International program that helps children in Asian countries, like the Philippines.

I also made a page with her Halloween kit, Spooky Fun Halloween..

I made two Halloween pages with Symphonie's new kit 'Halloween Spirit'...a wonderful kit for halloween and fall pages!

..next page made it to 'Layout of the Day' at ScrapScandiStyle'

A new kit by Nikki Scott named 'Monster Madness'...I asked my kids to make scarry faces but that was not so easy as they thought it would be...I think they look more funny than scarry ;)

During the autumn-schoolholidays we made a long walk and I took some great pictures of my boys...with one of them I made this page with Juno Designs kit 'Fallin'. I think I rather have fall kits than summer kits, love the colors!

Julie Mead of E-scapeandscrap asked me several times to join her site-CT and she is such a nice lady so how could I refuse....I made a first page with Kay Eflin's kit 'From Boys to men' and it is a page of my youngest son fishin'.

Another new team....Glam Fairy Designs aka Stephanie Trouve...her work is amazing. I already knew some of her kits and I am very happy to be on her team. I made two pages with her kit 'Witch Out!'

Pepeetje/Petra made a new kit 'Memories'. I really loved to make some vintage layouts with it of my family...a first one of my mom being pregnant of me and the second one of my grandparents seeing me for the first time...

Jen E. made a new kit called 'Oh Brother' and I used some great pictures of our walk to scrap a page with.

Gina Marie Huff made a gorgeous new kit 'Full of Wonder' and I made this awesome page with it, sorry..I really love it myself ;)

Rest of the pages I still didn't post here, will be in tomorrow's post...as I have to go and celebrate my uncle's birthday! Tomorrow I will also give you a sneak peak to Lorie's new coming kit ;)Oh..and don't forget..all images are clickable for further credits!

See ya tomorrow!!

CT and Non-CT

I have so many layouts to share...last week my kids went to my parents and I had sooo much free time to scrap, really enjoyed it eventhough I really missed those little noise-makers!!

The above layout is my birthday invitation...next saturday I celebrate my 40th birthday (oepf...that hurts). Those pictures were taken in Venice, the most romantic place on earth!! I used Gina Marie's 'Delightful collection'..just love that kit!

Patricia Christensen at Weeds and Wildflowers made a gorgeous new kit 'Shabby Cottage Rose Garden'..a very romantic kit full of roses (from her own garden!). I made just one layout with it..one of our weddingpicturs..need to make another layout with it soon!!

With the new Weeds and Wildflowers collab 'The Great Outdoors' I created above layout. The picture was taken when we were an afternoon at the lake here...one of the only sunny days this summer!! It is a great kit...lots of elements..doodles, flowers, very realistic elements..gorgeous!

This week I really wanted to use to scrap some non-ct-layouts...mostly I have no time to use these kits...but really loved to work with them last days!
This layout is made with 'Sugar Rush' by Holly Designs at Shabbypickledesigns. You see my youngest eating a huuuuuge ice cream in Italy..and I really had to scrap this ice cream as it was soooooooo expensive..I was in shock when I had to pay..lol!!

This layout is made with 'Cherry Crush' by Kasia Designs at Shabbypickledesigns. I just lately come at this shop and forum but I really love the designers there....they make great kits....and they are verrry friendly!
I scrapped a picture of my oldest son here...he was in the swimmingpool in Italy but was so sunburned, he needed to wear his shirt in the pool!

When I was in Italy I received a GC of Jule Designs and bought her lovely kit 'Make me Happy'. I used a picture of my youngest son when he was about 9 months old...he had so much fun while taking this picture!

For this layout I used the kit 'Hold me tight' by Cinnamon Designs. I really love Nathy's creations and love to scrap with her kits! I used a picture of my oldest son....yeaaaars ago! Think this layout turned out great...well..I love it!

Since last week I am in two new CT's...first is the CT of 'Symphonie'..She is a new French designer and this is her first CT! I scrapped two pages with her great kit 'Midnight in Fairyland'...and you can find a freebie of this kit here.

The second CT is for 'Designs by Nikki and Jen'. I used their kits Pink Autumn, Blue Autumn and ABC 1-2-3 all available in there store! You can also find an Autumn freebie here.

I promise I will scrap more often so my posts won't be so long again..lol. Well..life will be back to normal again as the kids will go to school tomorrow...so we have to go to the swimmingclasses, to judo, to bowlinglessons and have schoolfriends over....bye bye summerholidays....
Thanks for reading..have a great day!
