New challenge up

Hi all!

It's Wednesday, and that means new challenge over at
Scrapbookers Delight. This is my example for the challenge:



Don't you just love those vibrant Kaiser papers??

Well, I have nothing else to show today... My mojo is not back yet. This weekend I'm going away on a girls scrapping weekend, so I truly hope I will get some stuff done. I NEED to get stuff done, I have deadlines!!!

:)

So, I'll see you after the weekend. Now go check that challenge out over at Scrapbookers Delight!

Boy papers

At the moment I really like blue and brown in combination with orange. Therefore - I love BG's new archaic papers. So I decided to use them. Even if I have a girl to scrap about...

:)

This is for the Friday night challenge over at SE.



I don't feel like my mojo is entirely there, but at least I'm doing stuff. Can't show you more tonight though, but eventually I will.

Thanks for stopping by!


New challenge up!

OK, so most of you know by now that I work at my LSS Scrapbookers Delight. You might also know that they have a blog. Hopefully, you have checked the blog out, and you then know that I put up a new challenge every Wednesday. So - today's Wednesday and the new challenge is up. Head on over and check it out - I would LOOOOOOVE for more people to enter! The more the merrier you know! You are welcome to participate wherever you are in the world, if you are the lucky winner, we will send a nice price to you!

:)

My take of this weeks challenge - with all Kaiser products -  looks like this:



***************************************************************************************************************
In other news - NO my scrapping mojo has still not come back. I did do three LO's at work (the above LO is one of them) but I still don't feel like I have any great ideas, if you know what I mean... Thank you all for your nice comments, I just have to wait this out I guess...

And on Mrs Frizz's orders; here is the miniablum that I did at work last week. It's all Kaiser products, apart from the ribbons who are from Fancy Pants:

     
 


Well, that's all for today. Remember to send some mojo my way, should you have some to spare and share... :)

My mojo is gone!

It is true. I haven't done a LO for a whole week! I have made a minialbum at work, and some cards in the weekend, but no LO's!!! This is very unusual for me, and I hate it.

Don't know how to get out of it...

In the meantime, here's a LO that I sent in as a Guest DT application for an american site, a spot that I didn't get!

:)


Whooo hooot THURSDAY!

Well, it turnes out I have things to be happy about today as well! Funny that!

:)

I got a copy of the latest UP2SCRAP magazine today, with MY FIRST PUBLACTION in it! I don't know if it's bad to say that I'm VERY PROUD of myself - but I am! It was the first time I sent something in, and they accepted it! It looks fabulous in print and yeah. It feels good!

A shout out to all you other ladies that I know through cyber space who got their work published as well. Go us!

Here is the LO that is on page 14 in the mag:



I also got happy mail today. In December (!) I won a set of stamps from a Swedish company called Magnolia. I haven't heard back from them in months, they havent' replied to emails or anything. But today a collection of stamps showed up in my mailbox. They look kinda qute, but I haven't decided if I want to keep them or not. Maybe I'll sell them cheap to someone who wants them. We'll see. Good to finally get them though!!

So yeah, today was a whoooo hoot day as well!!!

Whoo hoot Wednesday

My cyber friend Janine has started a "shout out" tradition on Wednesdays. Beautiful if you ask me... :) Here's what I am particularly happy about this Wednesday:

* My daughter has had normal temperature for over 4 days!
* I worked extra hours today - I love my job!
* I got to meet and hug one of my dearest friends today!
* No bills in the mail today!
* It's only 37 days 'til I land in the land of Sweden!
* Nooooooooo rain today for the first time in aaaages!
* My dear husband turned the oil heater on even though he's not even the slightest cold - he did it for me!
* My new challenge is up on the Scrapbookers Delight blog!

On that note, here's my LO for this weeks challenge, and another LO to make it a double for my lovely boss Paula.







I really like the new "boxer" range from BG!!

I also managed to get a LO for this fortnights sketch challenge over at SE. This is my take:


More Cyber crop stuff

I'll keep it short - here are some more creations for the cyber crop over at Scrap with V and National Scrap booking Day that was YESTERDAY!

Hmmmm. Seems like I  LIKE having the photo on the right hand side. Must change that!!!

:)

And last - a mothers day card:

image539



Useless

That's how I feel about my blogging lately. Don't know what's happened. And TOTALLY useless at leaving comments on your blogs. I apologise. I read them though! Will try and up my comments soon!!!

Anyway. The monthly cybercrop is in full run over at
Scrap with V. We have a LOT of cool challenges and prices, and it's not too late to join!

I have a sketch challenge up this time, this is the sketch and my take on it:

image532



image533


The title says "Life is my greatest gift".

I've managed to get two other challenges done so far, for the CC. This is the "Me and my mum" challenge, quite like how it came out!

image534



And this LO is the "Fairytale" LO. How to explain... Well. We were to be inspired by a fairytale, fable or folk story, that is somehow related to your everyday life. Also, thee needed to be LOTS of bling, 5 journalling bits and 5 butterflies/flowers/hearts/stars, adn ribbon. So. Lately I have had a bit of white space on my LO's. No space for white space on this one!!!

image535


And yes. I found refill cartridges for my dymo. At a store who doesn't even sell dymo's. (Dick Smith's) The sell mostly electrical stuff, TV's and games and all that jazz! Me happy!

:)

Now I'm off to try and finish the other two challenge on the CC.

Oh - before I forget!!! This is my May LO for Scrap with V. You can go to the shop and buy the kit now!!!

My Angel

Busy bee

That's me. I can't believe how fast the weeks are flying by. Only 5 more before me and Tova goes to Sweden! Outrageous!

So, thank you all for your advise on my Dymo refills. I'd already tried the NZ shops you suggested, with no luck. So I might have to take up 
Anna's offer to get me some and send over. (She's married to a kiwi, so I trust her!:))

Anyway - what have I been doing? Apart from the usual stuff? Apart from my dear girl never getting over the flu? Well, wer'e selling the house, so that takes up most of my time. Mentally and physically... Lucky me for working in a scrapbooking shop, so that I can play while working! This is my LO for Scrapbooker's Delight's latest challenge. Get over to the blog to check the challenge out! You can win cool stuff!!!

I've used BG's "sugared" range on this LO. (Megan - please notice the photo corners!!!)

image529


And here's another PINK LO that I did for a challenge over at Scrap With V. I can show you more stuff that I have done for them - tomorrow... :) That's when the new kits go up on the site! So exciting!!

image530


Hmmm. Seems I'm in a PINK period...

:)

My bed is calling my name now, but I'll try to post some more tomorrow. Thanks for stopping by!!!

Dymo problem

So I've looked EVERYWHERE for refills to my old fashion dymo, with no luck... Where in Gods name do you get them??? At the shop Spotlight they looked at me funny and said - Dymo? What's that?

Goodness...

So - help please! In whatever country you are in, can you tell me where I get refills for my dymo?

:)

W as in Wicked Wednesday

Don't know what to say about my title. It's just a title I guess...

My brain is on vacation I think!

Anyway, the new challenge is up on the
Scrapbooker's Delight blog. JOIN US!!! This is my example:

image527


Hmmm... What else have I done... It's amazing that I have had time to scrap actually, but I guess that is what keeps me sane in my chaotic life! :)

Unique


image528

(title says "Tova loves books")


That's about it for now. Thanks for telling me you've been here for a visit!!!

I should really be in bed...

I have a fever and can feel a migrain coming, so I should really go to bed... I just know that the next couple of days are going to be frantic, so I wanted to finish off some LO's and post them. So here they are... :)

always on the run

Is it really Wednesday again?

So this is how all you REAL grown ups live your lives... :) Work, daycare, sick kids, doctors visits, swim school, selling and buying houses, renovating, dishes, washing, cleaning, and then... scrapping! Socialising? NO WAY!!!

Yep. I'm quite busy at the moment!

:)

But anyway...

I have been scrapping from time to time, but not much I can show you - yet. Patience please... I would be VERY happy though, if you clicked over to
Scrapbooker's Delight's blog and checked out my new challenge. There is nice stuff to win, so tag along!!!

This is my LO for this weeks challenge, with the new GORGEOUS Prima Marketing range:

dozing

Bye for now! Thank you for leaving a comment before you leave!                                              

It's Monday!

What more can I say? Almost Wednesday - but you've still got time to get your contribution in for the challenge over at Scrapbooker's Delight!

:)

Remember that if your name get's drawn we will send you some scrapping goodies - wherever you live in the world!!

OK, so I've done some scrapping the last few days. Nothing unusual for me... :) But, the unusual thing for me is that I don't feel happy with what I have created. I am happy that I have got another LO done, but not necessarily about how the end result looks. Don't have a clue why...

Well, these are my latest creations anyway:

This title says "It's lucky we've got grandma"

mormor


The next two was created for the "Technique Monday" post on Scrap With V's blog. I've done a 3D effect with the photos. Pop over to the blog and read more if you'r einterested in how I did it! :)


hoppsan


so serious



Thats it for today. See you soon!!!!!!


Wednesday fun!

I am very excited about what's going on @ the Scrapbooker's Delight blog tonight... :) It doesn't matter where you live in the world - pop in and have a look. It would make me veeeeeeery happy!!!

:)

Oh - you're back?! Cool, isn't it?

:)

Well, I can't leave you without pics, so here's one of my latest LO (morfar means granddad), and also a few CARDS! I know - it's been a while since I sat down and made cards! But one of my lovely sisters ordered some, so that was a great reason to make some!

Bad day

I had a bad day at work today. One of my customers was really rude, and made ME feel bad. That just ruined my whole day.

I got to play around with new products from Heidi Swapp, but not even that made me feel better.

Stupid lady...

Anyway. Time to get over it!

I'd like to show you the LO's I've been making for
Scrapbooker's Delight. It's a challenge scrapping someone else's photos - that's for sure, or scrapping without photos even!!! But using new products helps of course...

The first two LO's can sit together or seperately in an album. Everything comes from Fancy Pants new YUMMY range - (apart from the bazill photomat, and the kindy glitz on the clear letters on the second LO). The papers are JUST gorgeous, there is a massive range of clear stamps, clear letters and clear "chipboard", there are overlays, ribbons, die-cuts and felt and... It's just amazing!!!

Details (click to enlarge)


     


And - TADAAAAAAAA - my first ever BOY layout!!!  :) This is also from the new Fancy Pants range. Aren't the papers just fabulous??


image516



Today I got to play with the new Heidi Swapp papers and overlays. I made a double LO, but didn't get a photo of both sides together. Just imagine the biiiiiiiig butterfly will ya... :)


image517



image518


The extra's on these are BG rub-ons and letter stickers, bazill CS and Bo Bunny rub-ons.

I am such a lucky girl getting to play at my work!!!

Make sure to pop into Scrapbooker's Delight's blog tommorrow. Exciting stuff happening...

CC LO's and more

I'm feeling terrible at the moment, the flu has hit me hard. But I'm sure I'll survive like all the other times the flu has come for a visit!!!

:)

The CC over at
SWV was a success as usual, and I got all challenges but one done. Am happy with that, considering I wasn't feeling the best. These are the LO's I created for the CC:

For the sketch challenge;

Jul 2007


(the title say's "Christmas 2007")


For a challenge called "I love to..." with the criteria to use at least 2 patterned pp's. The LO had to be about something apart from scrapping that you love to do;

I love to discover NZ



For the DT only challenge. It had to be a 6x12 LO (this is my first!!!), there had to be stamping on it, and the subject was "My dream holiday destination";

let's go around the world on a bike



And today I have posted a new challenge in the SWV forum, a scraplift challenge. You are to scraplift this fantastic LO from the amazing Swedish lady AnnaB:


image509


(the title says "focus")

This is my take:


vacker


(the title says "beautiful")


Would be great to see your take on Anna's LO, you have 'til April 30th to post it in the SWV gallery!

I've actually got a lot more to share, but this is already a very long post, so I'll wait 'til tomorrow!

Have a great Monday!
