Fun pages

This week I planned to scrap just for fun..well..scrapping is always fun but I mean..no designing, no CT work but just scrap those kits that I once bought but never had time to use. For inspiration I played several challenges at After Five Designs and Shabby Pickle Designs and that was great (and I earned some Gift Certificates with it which is great too). I will show you my pages of this week and will end with a few birthday-pages I did (for fun..lol).

There is a little story behind this kit. When it was released, last week, my friend Anja and me...we woke up at 5.00/5.30 to keep our eyes opened on Lily's blog. At release date she gives a few coupon codes for the first 5 girls to get the kit for free..and this time..we wanted to have luck too...but...it took hours for the kit came up in the shoppe and by that time, other girls used the coupons for other kits of Lily (what of course was not meant to be done)..so...after waiting for about 7 hours..lol...I bought it..but...hey..I was the first to buy ;) and later this page made it to GSO (Gallery Stand Out)

Catch a Wave

I have a wonderful beach-sea kit in store at www.scrap-dreams.com. It is called 'Catch a Wave' and it is based on where I am born and raised...Vlissingen, Netherlands. I also made a Quickpage album with it..

Summer Sale Scrap Dreams

Yeah..we will have a great Summer Sale at Scrap-Dreams next coming days...and I am really working very hard to get a new kit finished before the sale.
Last week I released my new kit "Rockin' Baby" and I really like how it turned out...

And here are the pages I made with it..

Hope to see you at our Summer Sale!!!

Quincy*

On May 31st our wonderful, sweet Bernese Mountaindog Quincy died unexpectedly...we were all with her in her last minutes and it was very hard to let her go...I am still very sad and lost all creativity but I tried to make a few pages for her...it really shows how I feel....I used 'Dido Designs templates' and Kimla's kit 'Blueberry Night' and next page is done with Lily Designs 'Paint the Ocean'.

It is 2 weeks now and we still don't understand what happened..it all went soo fast..we have the idea she is poisened but we are not sure..I only know I miss her every minute of the day and I will never forget her..how she walked, how she looked at me and how she was laying in our garden most of the day...

My dear friend Aurelia made this wonderful page for me..she used the charity collab kit 'Forester's Wish'

A CHARITY MEGA COLLAB to support Forester (http://thebradburns.blogspot.com/) who in February had a malignant brain tumor removed and has finished his first six weeks of chemo and radiation. He is heading to DisneyWorld as this kit is released for his "Make A Wish" trip.

This HUGE and incredible collaboration began as a kit to scrap their memories into a Forester's Wish Trip book and now it is offered for sale to you! The proceeds will go to the family to pay medical expenses.
