no scrapworks...

this time! I started drawing again! I used to draw a lot of mandalas but somehow that vanished to the background when I started scrapping. In our hall we've got 3 framed mandalas but I was bored with them so decided to draw new ones! So I already did 1 which was from an example in a book as I liked it so much! 2 more to go;-)

I also stopped my other blog and decided to only focus on this one! Also because this one is in English and I know some of my penpalls also read this blog! The other one was in Dutch, a bit difficult for them hehehe

some stuff i finally finished

This is my flagbook, a little online workshop I took at Piens, I decided to make it about our garden as we have loads of pics about that!



This is the front of my handmade album that I will use as a BOM. We are making it together on Scrapfever. I still have to do the first 2 assignments but hadn't had the inspiration yet. I used Love Elsie paper for it! Oh and magic fibers, love those!!! The "stamp" is bella's but I drew it as I didn't want to order the stamps!


Last but not least a lo I made last night. It's a lift by the way as I loved the colors she used (I don't know her name by the way.


What's up next? Probably the 2 assignments for the BOM and a scrapfever contest lo and maybe more scraplifting as I find it really inspiring lately!

Besides starting my BOM I made a lo inspired again by a lo I saw on 2peas, but I decided to make a spread of it! Here it is!

Currently I am lifting a lo I saw on 2p, I adored it and had to make it myself with elsie paper. As soon as it is finished I will place it out here ofcourse!!! For now I will leave you with my new Elsiestyle blog, loving it! Elsie thanks for all this great and inspiring stuff! Can't wait to see what you came up with for your next lines!!!

wow I am so on a role! I decided to make a freestyle one, inspired again by a lo I saw this morning on 2p. This is my result, I am not really happy with it actually, but hey can't always make pretty lo's right? Photo's are clickable for better view

#101!! Sweet Tim

hiya! Wow it feels like a new start! post 101 how fun is that!
Well here's one of my lo's again! It's about our sweet tim, he's the only cat without a typical ras that we have. This lo is inspired by one I saw a long time ago on 2p. I am on a role! I am off again making another pretty lo just as long as this mood lasts!

Post #100!!!!

It's a whole lot!!! Never thought I would keep up! But I did, just a few months and I already have got 100 posts! Unbelievable! I just saw it when I wanted to post my new LO! What a surprise!
Well this is my new lo that I finished this morning and it's from a sketch that I found on 2P. It's about the sweet presents I got from Nicole!

A scrapped present for me!!!

Soooo sweet! I got this in the mail today from Nic Don't you think it is adorable?! I love love love it Nic!!! Thanks a whole bunch!!! You are such a sweetheart!!!!

family

I made this sweet lo about nic and her family, well just 1 of the kids!
I love how this orange Fancy Pants paper matches her shirt makes it a very warm lo. Now I am scrapping on of our other photo's we have together! Also Fancy Pants paper by the way! Love those!!! Oh and Elsie's paper is sooooo close now!!!! just 1 or 2 more days of patience!
Last saturday we went to a scrapstore and I was a little disappointed about the paper they had. They have a whole lot to choose from, so that's not it! But there was nothing appealing to me! Bugger!!! so I bought a present for Nic and the RAK for Hilde, which wasn't all that easy! But I succeeded anyway!
Well off scrapping again! The weather is lauzy anyway so time enough!!!

And finally

we meet!!! A few weeks ago I met this great woman on the messageboard of Scrapfever called Nicole and we clicked instantly. We started talking on the private or personale message thing and kept on going! We discovered that we had soooo much in comon and had similar hobby's, interests, complaints (heheh) and more.
We decided to set a date to meet, which was a big thing for us both as we suffer from pannick attacks. We set July 1st and were already looking forward to that! But then we decided it was too far ahead and couldn't wait to meet! so we chose this sunday and there she was with 3 of her great kids! We had a great time, laughed a lot it still clicked an all. She gave me this lovely sai baba insence and a guardian angel pin to keep with me all the time to bring me good luck, love it!
The kids scrapped upstairs, we talked and talked and talked and laughed a whole lot we thought we were so "tough"!!! So now July 1st would be the second "date" and I and Igor would go to her, but we still think it is too far ahead! so we are nagging at Igors head, sorry babe!
Here is 1 pic of us

Sweet present of a sweet friend

hi there!
Yesterday the mailman came to deliver a package that Nic had sent me. We were both so disappointed when I unwrapped it, and it was all to pieces! It was wrapped up very very good but still it broke! So we were sad about that especially because it meant so much to the both of us. Luckily she found a pic of how it should be and this morning I picked up some glue and after a struggle I finally did it, it's finished and looks great!!!
This is the result:

I love it! Thanx sweetie!

Me at 28

I finished another minibook yesterdag called "me at 28" it's kind of a mixture between Elsie's culture study ánd the usual "me at.."lo's. I am planning to make these every year and see how I evolve or something. Here are a few of my fav's again and the rest is hereat my 2P album


Still enjoying the new cam and figuring out how it all works, and ofcourse which lenses I would love to have!
